Smoking Meat

[Scot]

Does anyone else on this board smoke meats?


With a large portion of you guys living in Texas I would imagine that there are a number of you that smoke meats regularly.

I don't smoke any meat. I leave that to the Cali guys.

Lots and lots here. Home cookin and retail. Best brisket in Texas is in Umbarger at the Rafter G's.

I have had great brisket in Texas

Great pork in Memphis (both pulled pork and ribs)

I have never had any good bbq anywhere in CA.

Living very near the Texas/Louisana border I have grown to love smoked boudain. It is my favorite food. I am not sure if boudain is sold in other places farther away from Louisiana or not but I can say it is truly amazing after being cooked in a smoker. It is pretty good without the smoke for that matter but smoking it really makes it amazing.

The only place I’ve had good boudin is in Louisiana

A specialty butcher/meat market out here sells some that they make themselves as well as Andouille sausage. Neither of which are anything close or what I had in Louisiana. But at least I can find a close approximation of each if I need it for a recipe or have a craving

The one thing that is almost impossible to find here is Tasso Ham
