Have you ever smoked one at 350? A lot of the competition guys around here are doing it now and winning with that method. Cuts way down on cook time and the meat is amazing still. A good buddy of mine does this.

My egg's sweet spot is about 325 so I've been doing this for a while. Love the shorter cooks and like you said, meat is still great.

I'm doing up some chicken wings, Chinese take-out style. Got 30 really sweet, meaty wings from Oliver's Meat Market here in Denver... about 1/2 mile from where I live. So I'm doing 3x this recipe:
- 10 whole chicken wings (washed and pat dry)
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- oil (for frying) (I prefer peanut oil, but it's $$$$)
- Combine chicken wings, black pepper, white pepper, garlic powder, salt, sugar, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, sesame oil and egg in a large mixing bowl. Mix everything until the wings are well-coated. Next, add the cornstarch and all purpose flour and mix again until the wings are coated.
- Let the wings marinate for 2 hours at room temperature or in the refrigerator overnight for best results. (If you refrigerate the wings, be sure to let them come to room temperature again before cooking).
- After marinating, if it looks like there is liquid in the bowl, be sure to mix them thoroughly again. The wings should be well coated with a thin batter-like coating. If it still looks too watery, add a bit more cornstarch and flour.
- Fill a medium pot about 2/3 of the way up with oil, and heat it to 325 degrees F.
- Fry the wings in small batches for 5 minutes and remove to a sheet pan lined with paper towels. After all of the wings are fried, return them in batches to the oil and fry again for 3 minutes. The second fry can be done minutes or (preferably) hours after the initial fry.
- Drain on paper towels or a cooling rack, and serve with hot sauce!

Yessir! I've run them hot before. I prefer to inject for those but they absolutely can come out amazing... only issue for me is I've still not got that dank bark down yet when speeding.
Then again this pellet pit isn't getting it anyway so I'll prob try another quick one next time
Goal here is overnight so the longer cook is actually a plus

Buffalo + Garlic/Parmesan Wings - Going to bake some in our convection oven and also trying air fryer. I know it’s the same damn thing but we have only used our air fryer once since Christmas so I figured I would use them here. Maybe they cook faster?
Rosati’s Pepperoni Pizza - Bought it at Aldi’s a while ago, they don’t carry them anymore. The best frozen pizza I have ever had, hands down. Thin/Crispy crust and since they are already pre-baked, the cheese is already melted so it doesn’t fall all over the inside of the oven
Buona Italian Beef w/Gravy, Provolone and spicy giardiniera
Beers. Cold ones. I have a few Bell’s Two Hearted left and some Mich Ultras. May finish up with some scotch that a buddy gave me last week.

Also drinking some Amber Lager I bought at Aldi’s. It’s Aldager. Don’t recommend. Not a fan. But still drinking it until it’s gone. I think this is my last bottle.
I have a bag of Lay’s Classic potato chips that I really want to crack open (haven’t made any of the above food yet) but don’t want to ruin my appetite. I think I may just finish this beer and crack open another one before the wife wakes from her nap. At least that way, she can’t keep track of my consumption. LOLOLOL

Watching the WM Phoenix Open (unless my team is playing I don't watch the 8 hours of SB pregame), the Papa Murphy pies are in the fridge, the Ruffles and ranch dip have been opened and I just cracked my first beer. 
Enjoy the day!*

These killed. Thanks GB. I went with ribeye and could have cut the pieces a little smaller but they were delicious.

Hot damn! Glad you enjoyed them. I made these for the first time a few years ago and now, they're solidly in the rotation.

Bump. I have a brisket question. My brother in law does a great Christmas brisket in the oven that takes 3 days (prep, initial cook, heat through and serve). Though I love the flavor, it's not a smoked brisket. Sticking with the teams in the Bowl I'd rather do a smoked brisket but won't have the time on the day.
Could I do an initial smoke on Day 2 on my Old Smoky electric smoker and then finish it on day 3 in the oven? If so, how long or what temp target would you recommend for the smoke? I don't want to over cook it and dry it out.
Thanks!

For the first time in many years, I'll be heading to someone elses house for the game. I'm going to bring a snack of some kind, but not sure what. I like to cook, so anything is possible. I don't want to be too fancy or elaborate though. That rules out chili, gumbo, etc.
I was thinking either Atomic Buffalo Turds or stuffed potato skins. Any ideas would be appreciated!

I don't know if I would wait til day three to finish it, but meat is only going to be able to absorb so much smoke. I've smoked pork shoulder or brisket for 4-5 hours and finished it in an oven.
Heck, I did it two weeks ago for pork shoulder when it was 22 degrees here and the wind was blowing about 20mph. It was a ***** keeping the smoker at 250.
And it depends on the size of the brisket of course for time, but maybe smoke on your smoker tomorrow for 4 hours or so at 230-250.
Finish in the oven at 275-300 until you reach your desired temp. Easy and you are done in one day. Re-heat on Sunday.

I've posted my smoked deviled eggs over in the grilling and smoking thread, that are always a crowd pleaser. Smoked shotgun shells (manicotti) were a bit hit at Christmas in years past. I will be trying bacon wrapped 'fried' pickles this year. 2 ritz cracker and pickle slice sandwich. Take pack of bacon cut in half. Wrap sandwich with 2 half pieces bacon to cover, hit with rub (honey/sweet heat recommended on post I saw). Smoke at 350 for ~25. Ranch with franks hot sauce mixed in for dipping.

I simply cannot be trusted with a smoker. I will end up forgetting until I wake up at 4 AM several days later.

Omg that pickle thing sounds good I may have to try those
On the eggs - do you smoke em a day ahead and just refrigerated?
ChiefD

I think I'm going to do a Joe's KC re-creation of their Z-man sandwich but use pulled pork instead of brisket since I already have some in the freezer.
1. Toast a kaiser bun
2. Spread BBQ sauce on the bottom bun
3. Add pile of meat
4. Add a slice of smoked provolone cheese
5. Add (2) onion rings
6. Drizzle more BBQ sauce over sandwich
I'll also heat up some smoked beans I have in the freezer.

Take raw eggs and place on smoker to hard boil/little smoke, take off let cool, peel then back on the smoker for about a half hour, 1 hour max, then pull, cool and make the deviled eggs. Gives them a really good smokey flavor. I forgot to set a timer once and left them on too long. They were edible, but way too much smoke.

Aight fam. After a one year hiatus for a super pregnant wife, we are having a small get together (only a few close friends who also have babies). SO EXCITED to do this again. Here's today's menu:
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
- Meatballs two ways: One crockpotted with a hot pepper bacon jam and heinz chili sauce mix, one smoked over hickory for a few hours, regularly glazed with a little "sauce for all seasons" from this place we used to go to (it's like raspberry, choke cherries, lemon and lime zest and juice, and cranberries)
- Two salsas: one milder, one hotter (neither is without heat). Same salsa, except the hotter one has diced jalapenos and green chiles blended in. Both have the secret special salsa ingredient (a pickle spear and some brine). Both have fresh cilantro and diced onion added after blending. The milder one has some pickle relish for sweetness in the blend too
- Varied chips (regular tortilla and potato, a baked sea salt potato, and a sour cream and chili flavor)
- Veggie dip - mayo, sour cream, and spice mix
- Veggie sticks: carrots, celery, bell peppers, cucumber
- Whipped olive oil marinated sheep's cheese: a sheep/goat cheese from new Zealand, whipped with some lemon juice, garlic, and cream cheese to a fluffy deliciousness
- Smoked deviled eggs: mostly using @odin33 's recipe, but adding some BBQ rub heavy on sweet paprika and some minced pickles to the filling, then topping with one sliced pickled jalapeno
- Selection of crackers: tomato basil, cracked pepper, etc
- Gorgonzola blue cheese
- Extra aged dutch gouda
- Buffalo chicken dip
- Muddy buddies
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
