I just finished vacumn sealing 20 lbs of cold smoked spring salmon, a bucket of beef jerky and a bucket of smoked almonds(didn't bag the almonds). Nailed everything although it took me 2 goes to get the almonds right asI overdid them in the oven after the smoke the first time. What's going out to your friends, relatives and neighbors for Christmas?

cured and smoked ham
I decided to do nothing but eat and let others do the work this year. We are on the road and my wife's sister will do Christmas then it is on to my brother's and I am hoping to convice him to smoke and/or grill something like shrimp, scallops, deer or something. I'm just going to provide the adult beverages and enjoy. Most years I bring the main dish but not this year.

Nothing going out - they're all coming over for it. I
think Santa is bringing me a TBE, based on the size of the box to the left of the tree in the pic. I have a turkey thawing in the refrigerator just in case. I'm thinking of cold smoking it with pecan for two hours in the OBS and then finishing it in the TBE. We're officially just having snacks for the family get-together but I told my wife that I wanted to experiment.

3 lb Ribeye roast that I just picked up. This will be new teritory for me (Well, most of my smoking adventures are new teritory since I'm a noob)! Did a little research here and have decided to make the cut under the bone, then rub, re-tie the bone, smoke to IT of 140, pull it and cover for an hour or so. Sound like a plan? This will be for my Christmas day meal with the kids and grandkids. Can't wait :D
Smoked 9 lbs of Blazin' Pistachios(thanks Seemore for the original recipe), 2.75 lbs of Canadian Bacon(thanks Habs for the original recipe) and 7 lbs of belly bacon(thanks Stickbowcrafter for the original recipe).
Smoking is finished but come Christmas Day I have a 7 lb SRF Wagyu boneless rib roast that I will be cooking. No smoke on that piece of beef. ;)

The only part of the plan missing PapaC is you forgot to invite me! Sounds good! Enjoy.

Just finished smoking 20# of spring salmon. Some will go home with my parents and in-laws the rest in the freezer for a later date. Also finished slicing and packaging some Canadian bacon.

Not to try to hijack this thread but t-square we need to talk.I am addicted to the super pig bacon rub and I am out :'( and need some more) ;D
I have already pawned my grandma's VCR and been hanging out on shady corner's (now I got this weird cold sore thing growing ) and I still need more
If you guys have not tried any of this it is a must try -AWESOME STUFF-just follow directions on label for some of the best cooked bacon you have ever tasted.
Have not got a chance to try the other's yet but am sure they will not disappoint.
