What are you planning BBQ'ing/ Smoking for your Christmas dinner?

Someone at work gave me a Canadian goose that I plan on cold
smoking and then baking. Want some goose grease? :-)


How long does it take to cold smoke? What exactly is cold smoke?

Vinnie S.

Cold smoke is where you generate smoke without much heat. It
doesn't cook the food just smoke it. Great for making home made
bacon. The one I use is a smoke pistol.
I just mounted it on the side of my brinkman smoker.

It generates smoke for 2 or 3 hours..

And Cherry is the best, esp for Turkey or Chicken..



That ain't bad at all. I thought it would be like 9 hours. What if it's like 25
degrees out? I am asking because I still BBQ in winter.

Vinnie S.

If I hot smoke a turkey, which is heat with smoke, a turkey can take 8
to 9 hours. My smoker runs about 250 degrees, with a water bath under
it. If I cold smoke it, you still have to bake it in an oven for the
same amount of time as a regular turky. The only problem I have with
cold weather is the output of my smoke pistol plugging up with
condensed smoke.
