I recently learned of a place in Bishop, California that makes the best jerky I've ever had. I've tried their beef (peppered (my favorite) and the sweet & spicy (and it IS on the spicy side)) and some turkey. The stuff cannot be beat! Best part, it is available on-line at: www. SmokedMeats.com. Not cheap, but worth every penny!

Father's Day brought me a SmokinTex electric smoker. I have been smoking meat since a young age, Pop was a Butcher / Smoker. This is the easiest to use, and produces the best results of anything I have built or used over the years. Best od all, it is small enough for just the two of us, or can make enough for the crew at work. Tonight I will try a smoked meatloaf. So far ribs, butts and chicken have come out perfect. |

Good info. Smokin Tex is now on my list of things to research on the web.
Thanks,

Ah...but have you ever tried biltong??? That's the South African version of beef jerky and much much better. My wife (who is South African) and I make it all the time ... using a recipe from my father-in-law who got the recipe from his father. If you're interested, I can get the recipe to you. Lekker good... (translated - very good)... |

Isn't Biltong made with Elephant or Water Buffalo? Kind of scarse around South-west Georgia. If I shot one, the Zoo Keeper would probably not understand. |

Been using this smoker for a good dozen years or more. I wire-brush and paint the firebox once a year and she still looks new! Love the locomotive style!

Nope... we use beef...rump roast is usually the best cut to use. After soaking the meat (carved into strips) for two or three days, we hang the strips in a biltong box - there are many ways to make the box - with two 60w lamps on... |
