I don't know, I just make sure i don't go past 135, it might. If i want a sear I usuially smoke to about 125 then put on high heat and watch the internal temp. I Don't know the correct way, or how it should be done ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNRET Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Searching showed a lot of cast iron skillet searing then smoke, seemed opposite to me. I’ll try that next time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted February 25, 2019 Moderators Share Posted February 25, 2019 I like the cast iron idea. The only thing I'm not sure about is they say meat doesn't take smoke after 140 degrees, so searing first might be a problem? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I smoke first. Seems like it ought to work better in my thick head. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The projects are a good contrast to what I do every day. There's also the satisfaction of completing it. On that note the ceiling is done! I'll start on the wall that has the garage door bolted to it next while I have the extra set of hands here. I know you do. I miss projects and the associated satisfaction. I worked as a paper shuffler in an office for 7 years before changing to outdoor work for the next 36. As dtel said I just can't do some things anymore. But thanks to Chuck now I just call Juan. Congrats on the project. Keith 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaving next week for Hope to work on the museum for a week and that would have made it harder. I will definitely start back on a diet as soon as I run out of excuses. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
