Xmas party smoke begins

westexasmoker · December 14, 2008, 12:05:32 PM

Works christmas parties are this week, so it was time to get crack-a-lackin! Already have the cheese smoked up and vac-sealed for the past 3 weeks. Onward! Some Jalapenos for ABTs!

All cored and happy, we'll come back to these a bit later in the week!

Some of habs CB, drying about to go into the smoker (this was last night) forgot to get the after pic hit 150 IT and pulled....now all vac-sealed for later this week....Don't worry I'll get a pic!

Time for Kummok salmon, all sliced up and ready for the brine!

After the brine last night and now drying gots two other racks full on the other side of the counter, where we're at right now. Almost time to go into smoker! And yes LQ I'm using mesquite! ;D

More to follow!

Salmon from last nights smoke, a little overcooked but still smells/taste great! Time for a vac seal, I would have done this last night, but Jim Beam took over my camera and could not figure out how to work it! ;D

Tommorrow time to trim the brisket up!

Ya know WTS, I had the same thing happen, and don't understand. Had some people over for some eats, 1 Bradley and 3 Big Easys, and somehow did not get 1 pic. Is there something in the Beam that makes yer camera go dead? I think this could be a class action lawsuit or something. We gotta lookout for ourselves! :D ;D
