Did some pig for Australia Day. 2 hrs smoking (mix of pecan and mesquite), one hour no smoke, 2 hrs in aluminium foil (with apple cider and more BBQ sauce) - all at 85oC with the vent closed. Basted again and then 1 hr and a bit at 110oC with the vent slightly open. What an awesome dry rub this...

What does this mean? I just want to press the chat button and make it work. Can I do something else to make it work?

Speidel reccommend a range of 9-11kg for the 50L BM. I have not done a low gravity with the regular malt pipe. I did a 28L batch of 1.040 with 4.5kg of grain in the short malt pipe, I would need to dig up my paper based notes to determine volumes. Regular malt pipe 13kg produced 53L batch at...

Lael: I noticed a few things. It is a big table and my head hurts from looking at it. I only do simple numbers. I will have to give it more thought. The section pertaining to the 50L BM. so you have calculated the maximum volume of the regular malt pipe as being 33.67L and that the maximum...

I'll leave my post up just for the heck of it, but it all seems to be answered in the site that pbrosnan linked to. Specifically this page: http://amazingribs.com/recipes/porknography/pork_cuts.html

Pork Spare Ribs for the smoker: Some questions. Stuff all meat on the rib bones was an issue I tried to tackle but this left me with more questions than answers. So I bought a big ole bit of belly with the ribs still on that was 3.5kg before I molested it. I was thinking ribs for me, belly for...

Yes different contact details to those of the EWL website. PM sent.

I bought a brand new EWL handpump for 99 quid + 79.50 quid for postage and insurance. It also included the drip tray, 1/2 hose and a plastic cask tap (everything to connect it to a barrel). It came via DHL express and arrived a lot quicker than via postal service. It is a great handpump. Can't...

Looks exactly like the 20L jobby from BCF refered to earlier. I bought a 20L collapsible water container from someone on EBay in England. I dropped it with beer in it and it broke. I bought two replacements from BCF - they are identical to the one I got from England. So I have a length of 1/2"...

Farkin cyclists in their farkin spandex! So the Tour Down Under is in January; why do they need to get about in spandex in say October - are they trying to get a head start? Everybody hates cyclists; ever noticed that the bike lane is in the parking lane area? Do you know what the fine is for...

So I got my 30" Masterbuilt smoker and gave it a 3 hour run to burn off factory residues and give it a seasoning with some mesquite pellets. They heat up quicker than I expected given there is a seemingly small element under the smoker tray, it was up to 150oC (set temp) within 20 minutes. I was...

Waitress in Tescos just asked me what I'd like on my burger? I said a Fiver each way! 5 people taken to hospital after eating Tesco burgers were said to be in a ...stable condition. Just checked the Tesco burgers in the freezer and.....they're off!

You now need a Dalek for a portable/mobile dispense unit :D

Truman, take some wood chips or smoker pellets, wrap in several layers of alfoil (or make a pocket to put them in). Put a few pin holes in the top of the wrapped smoking stuff. Place on the grill or burners. Wait until it is smokey and then add meat to the BBQ. I used to use the left burner and...

Cheers mate, I have had some advice from others in this thread but I suspect there is something wrong between the keyboard and the office chair and didn't want to bother you about it. I will wait until I have it fully built and then may drag it to Vortex's house and see what he can do with it; I...

A very long time and two pilot drill bits. Deburring and polishing took almost as long. I didn't count the holes. Probably would not have attempted it if I didn't have a drill press. I still have to do the other plate :unsure: but I know it will be worth it. I am using a Big W pot for the malt...

Some folks have bought thinner perf sheet (eg link...

I would readily demolish some fresh crab with a few beers but surely you jest about sullying the BM with crabs? :huh: Tsk tsk, shame on you. :angry: BBQ wok burner and Big W pot for crabs. :super: Indeed you are a fisherman as I just took the bait. :lol:

Smoked and dried mullet roe is meant to be awsome, held in the same esteem as using truffles in cooking, IIRC.Just like truffles, a little grating or shaving of it through a dish is meant to impart a real zing to the dish. Who woulda thought mullet eh? Maybe it is just dried mullet roe, but if...

Yeah some years ago I used to butterfly garfish, do them in brine and then hot smoke them in a 'nipper kipper' (small steel box with a metho burner under it), seemed good at the time. The time it would take to do a whole large snapper - I'd expect it to be smoked enough during a 'hot' smoke. For...
