very newbie?

Well I've done the butt. The BB that is.

You guys were definitely right about the FTC treatment. I smoked
about 14 lbs of pork in about 20 hrs. Got the smaller one to 190 and larger one to 185. Seems like there is a slight texture difference, with the smaller one being more gooey (better). Did the FTC for 6 hours while I slept. That had an amazing effect on the texture.

The results were out of this world. Will definitely be doing this one again.

So in the last 10 days I've tried Salmon,pork & chicken.

I have one chicken and loads of pork, however, nearly all the 3lbs of salmon are nearly gone. The local fish market is out of alaskan salmon for the near term, has anyone tried atlantic salmon? and was it on par with alaskan??

I can tell my wife is going to be on me to make more salmon soon.

cheers,
Ash

Ash, nothing is on a par with Alaskan salmon.  However, farm-raised Atlantic salmon or steelhead is a very good second choice.   Those of us on the East Coast rarely get to see Alaskan salmon in our local markets, so we console ourselves with the farm-raised stuff.  Don't worry, it's a small sacrifice to make . . .
