sirchunksalot Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 First of all, I would like to thank Stu for giving me his recipe for smoking pork jerky. Heck, without him, I wouldn't have even thought to try to make jerky on the smoker. I hope that I do it justice. Second, I would like to thank My Golf Spy for not only creating a great forum for discussing golf, but also a place to get to know each other and share expertise and experience. ABOUT ME: I'm a 43 year old man from southeast Tennessee who loves my family, my pets, golf, and food. I was fortunate to be raised into a family that knows how to cook. My Nanny was always around growing up and she made sure this fella was fed.She once told me "Jason, you need to lose weight, you need to lose weight, you need to lose weight...do you want me to make biscuits and gravy in the morning?". I just recently started smoking meats, when I received a smoker as a reward for giving five years of blood, sweat, and tears working for an auto manufacturer. It was so worth it. Come to think of it, I could have bought one, but having worked swings, my mind wasn't always there. I love smoking Turkey, pork, ribs, macaroni and cheese (try it). It's just a joy to be able to experiment with all different things. My wife calls a smoker a man's crock pot. THE EQUIPMENT: I have a Southern Country electric smoker with a capacity of around 300 square inches of cooking space. As you can see, the temperature gauge is a little lacking, but I bought an oven thermometer to monitor the heat. THE FOOD: For the jerky I bought a half of a pork loin roast that I cut up into small strips. I also used pineapple juice, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, and brown sugar for the marinade. I let it sit for two days in this before smoking it with maple wood chips. I have been able to get the temperature of the smoker to around 180 degrees and am going to give it about eight hours before checking it for doneness. Alas, I didn't have any sriracha so I am sad about that. Thank you for reading this, I'll post up a stage two to let you know how it turns out. Thanks again to Stu, I really appreciate it.

sirchunksalot Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 Thanks for making me Google "sriracha," 'chunks.You're welcome, I didn't even know how to spell it until I looked it up. I think it would have given the jerky a nice little kick. Sent from my SM-G955U using MyGolfSpy mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirchunksalot Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 Go you good thing! Love my drum smoker, in fact, I did a double smoked ham on Sunday.I absolutely love my smoker, too. You can make so many delicious things in them. I forgot to mention that I've also made meatloaf. Google Jack Daniels smoked meatloaf and give that a try. It's the one from 4 sons r us, it's spicy but you won't regret it. Sent from my SM-G955U using MyGolfSpy mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
