What did everyone cook today?

Mine smokes for around 4 to 5 hours cold. I like a heavy smoke flavor and some color too. I have found the cherry pellets much more pleasant tasting than the mesquite. The mesquite smoke was a bit harsh at first, but may mellow with time in the package. The A-maze-n tray in the hot side of the Trager and cheese in the cold chamber really has made a difference.
johnsbrewhouse I think the Pecan, Cherry, or Apple works best. The Mesquite is too heavy & better for something much heavier like beef, etc.

Cool rainy day here. We had a roasted chicken for supper last night that the wife made. I decided to make chicken noodle soup the only way I know how. From scratch and a boiled carcass. I did add store bought gluten free egg noodles. Hit the spot on this wet dreary windy day. Eastern part of the state has a tornado warning and the western part of the state is getting snow.

ND Mike Keep the rain jacket and boots handy.

zbigjeff yep! We didn’t have rain all summer and now we are getting quite a bit.

ND Mike Nothing better than homemade chicken noodle soup on a blustery day, unless you add a grilled cheese with it. My wife makes homemade noodles for ours, have some soup in the fridge right now.

ND Mike I used to not care for chicken noodle soup growing up is as you know some boil the chicken and think it’s great. But once when someone discovered nothing less than a rotisserie chicken needs to be used the moons aligned.

HerbcoFood I agree. Rotisserie chicken makes good chicken noodle soup. Spatchcocked chicken on the grill does too!

Bob Stehlik Thanks. I like a pretty heavy smoke as well. The wife not so much.
wdaly If you like a heavier smoke but not over whelming, try Hickory or a Hickory blend with Maple or Alder. We found it to be pretty tasty.

Broth for breakfast was one of the best things when I was strict keto

zbigjeff yep…that is what I smelled walking out of the bedroom before I got the coffee going.

ND Mike You can really use the moisture up that way, I was in Minnesota the first of August and everyone was taking their boats off the lake because it was so low.

ND Mike That’s what I’m talking about. OH YEAH!!! Just makes me smile thinking about that first smell after getting up.

Had to try this new seasoning from spiceology. They are in the Sous Vide now.
I really like the intial smell of both of these. I wish they had a shaker top, but a tsp worked.

lkrfletcher I’m in the process of deciding what types off seasoning I’m purchasing. Probably will end up with both spiceology and excaliber. Wanting at least one for roasts/steaks and the other for chicken/pork. Who knows how big that box is going to be.
