Thinking about firing up the Ole smoker this weekend, if weather permits.Thinking about a couple of boston butts, a slab ortwo of pork ribs, a yard bird or two. Would love to hear someyour favorite marinating recipes. I've tried the premixed marinades from the grocery store, there alright, but was wanting to try something different this time. Wish some of you guys lived closer, you could help us eat it all.

 

Jack black and/or butter and garlic with a touch of brown sugar. Watch out for flare ups!

 

.....add some black strap mole-asses. (cain't spillit, buh ah thunk yuh noe wut ahm tokin' 'bout)

 

oooohhhh, The Mennonites here make the best sorghum molassis......eemmmm!

 

Out here in Nevada, I like to smoke meats with Mountain Mahogany. I don't think y'all have it back East. My boss is from Mississippi. Kinda turned his nose up at the thought, " ...can't see usin' furniture to smoke meats. ". Well, he loses, it's a great flavor.

 

Sounds good.. I like to use cheery wood.....more furniture?

 

I've ever heard of using mahogany before, down here in the back woods of south Georgia we like use oak, and I like to add a little mesquite in with it. I end up smelling like a fireplace in the end, but manit's worth it.

 

Nothin' like cookin' over an open fire. ...Smoke keeps the skeeters off ya too.

 

Yea it does help keep the mosquitos away, it helps keep the wife at bay too.

 

I guess that could be a good thing sometimes huh? [sm=bicker.gif] [sm=icon_beat.gif]
