Here's the same Crab and Halibut when I made dinner for the wife and I. It was good, but the presentation was lacking.

Got my 2nd cook in with the new Camp Chef pellet smoker. Overall it has been working well. It is nice not having to babysit vents and there is a ton of room compared to the Kettle. I had 2 racks of St Lois cut ribs along with some baked potatoes and some Safeway Mac N cheese on the lower grates. I was expecting more smoke to be coming from the grill, but am not displeased by the flavors of the food. Front ribs are basted in a Carolina Gold sauce and the back ones just some Sweet Baby Rays. First weekend out we did some baby backs. The Chef store had them on sale for 2.88 /lb but you had to by a 3 pack. Had room for all 3 on the grills top shelf. I think the real test for how much smoke flavor the grill puts out will be when I do pulled pork.. Attachment: 20220814_173133.jpg Attachment: 20220814_173138.jpg Attachment: 20220814_175549.jpg

LOL no, that's legit, taken today.
I did some smoked salmon (post to come after I taste it and see if it's worth a shit), and started it with the smoke tube.

Forgot to get some pics, damn it. Got some riblets from my wholesaler, and made a whole case of them. Brined for 24 hours, then rubbed with a pepper heavy rub and smoked. Also did 3 trays of crab mac & cheese.

I use it occasionally, usually when I have something that I want to smoke with a minimum of heat, or something that won’t be in the smoker for very long. For yesterday’s smoked salmon, I let the smoke tube run for about 1.5 hours with the smoker fan on, but no fire/smoke from the smoker itself. For a regular cook, would I notice a difference? No. But I’ve already conceded that I’m not a super taster. I’m also the guy that will tell you that the flavor of your pellets won’t really matter.

The smoke tube is also good for cold-smoking cheese.

I smoked up two more chickens yesterday --- pretty simple prep as usual - Memphis rub goes on the night before and into the fridge. I had a Cosmic apple that had gone a bit too long... I had cut it up with the intention of feeding to the squirrels, but realized there would be nothing wrong with putting them in the chickens!
I smoked the hell out of those chickens with plum and cherry (really wanted pecan/apple, but the neighbor likes the p/c just fine) --- I was actually TRYING to get to that point of 'too much smoke' on these - kept tossing chunks on whenever the smoke died down. Decided to brush them with some beef tallow half way thru to try and crisp up the skin --- it really didn't do much but make the skin shiny. I tried like hell to get the smoker up and over 300 by propping the lid and door open, but it just DIDN'T help.... still had to finish it in the oven for a bit.... good justification to bake some biscuits too - perfect timing while the chicken rested.
Damn.... its amazing how good that smoke tastes on the chicken!!! I had the legs and wings last night and broke the rest down. I can't wait for sammys and sliders from the thigh/breast meat! The carcass is still sitting in the garbage can ---- all I can smell in the kitchen is sweet smoked chicken!
I'm gonna have to try a lot harder to hit the 'too much smoke' point.

Of the ten voices I hear in my head, only three keep telling me NOT to shoot.... Do I go with the majority or common sense?
