Got ny Bradley Original Smoker two days ago, seasoned it yesterday and I'll be trying to smoke a beef tenderloin that I started marinating last night. The recipe says it should take 1 1/2 to 2 hours to cook. Anyone have an idea on the best wood to use for the smoke and how long I should smoke it?

Thanks,

jack

I used an hour of oak and it worked out well. It was around 4 lbs of meat and it came up to 140 degrees in less than 90 minutes. There was nothing left so I guess it must have tasted pretty good. Thanks for the help.

Jacks, C'mon where's the pics? We love to drool here!

I'll try to get pics next time. The locust finished the meat before I could get to the camera.

Jacks Welcome - you are now officially on the dark side! This stuff gets in your blood and there is not 12-step cure. Good thing is that the family will all have a smile on their face more frequently!
