I hope that this passes down some of the family traditons to my kids and grand kids.
I'm sure it will.
Another quick question, it looks like you just piled it in the smoker.
Do you rearrange it throughtout the process?
I just wonder because with it piled in there I have had it come out all white striped and ugly where it was touching the other pieces.
Seemed to me like the smoke only got to the exposed areas and not where they were touching.
Yes we had to rearrang it about every 1 hour or so. The first batch we had a little bit to much on there and that is what we had to do. The rest of it we only put as much as we could without stacking to much of it on each other . It would be easier if we had a way to hang it so you don't have to pile it up on each other. We are talking about building a walk in type smoke house like my dads parents had when he was a kid, it would make it a LOT easier.
