The Outdoor cooking/BBQ/Smoking thread

Patient be patient Andy 0 I have to tell myself this every time I look at this thread

 

[Doctor Houx]

Smoking?

I thought you meant this kind of fun.... Sorry, wrong thread!

Oh dear Dr H; you will have started something now, no doubt Hodroyd and others will be along and waving theirs (humidors) around each claiming theirs is bigger!

I guess a thread drift was bound to happen sooner or later, as is almost always the case on here. Still, it could be worse!

Doesn't @Bebs have a bit of cigar history? I bought some when I went to Cuba as I used to enjoy them from time to time in my youth. However, since you can't smoke them anywhere anymore they never got an outing and ended up in the bin....

I don't smoke but that is one stunning room for those that do

Thanks Zagatoes30. I fitted a ceiling extraction system so the smoke doesn’t hang around.
Screen is 65 inch for size reference, it’s a good place to kick back and watch some F1, the only thing I neglected to do was fit an inside door lock!

I'm a total novice at this but it's so easy and tastes so good.
Smoked and roasted chicken and potatoes delicious for a Summers lunch.

Did you cook it on top or in the belly as it were?

Used the wire basket with potatoes in the bottom and chicken above them on the wire rack.

 

[Trev Latter]

That looks pretty tasty Phil.

I have a pork shoulder in for 5-6 hours today to have some pulled pork later on.

Have any of you chaps used whiskey soaked charcoal to smoke/BBQ ? I started by cutting up old whiskey barrels to use in my smoker, but found that soaking plain charcoal was just as good. Slow cooking a Boston Butt this way is delicious and never fails to attract neighbors.

Hmm. I struggled to get mine down to a low enough temperature to do that. Any tricks?
