Title: Smoking Meat in OWB?
Post by: woodwalker2010 on November 10, 2013, 07:45:48 PM

This may seam far fetched, but has anyone ever thought about or tried smoking meat with their owb? The way my heat exchanger is made on my Portage and Main would hold a good chunk of meat or some stuffed summer sausage. If I could figure a way to keep creosote off of it I would be willing to try it. Just wanted to here some of your thoughts. Seems like it should work. Deer season is open here now, plan on wacking a few and try something else besides burger.

OH MAN, we used the heat exchanger on the 250 many times at the shows to cook sausage in tin foil, really nice stuff but the absolute best was when my buddy Lyndon,( he is amazing with a dutch oven, boy scout troop leader ) made pulled pork, chilly, apple crisp and the most amazing corn bread I have ever eaten all in a dutch oven, hanging off the first water tube right inside the door of the chip boiler in Presque Isle Maine, oh and with the exitement of thinking about the great food I forgot to mention breakfast, eggs, sausage, bacon and french toast. try it you'll love it!!!!!!!!

I took a Boston Butt rolled it in foil and used a Dutch oven inside the boiler. 6 hours later it was so tendere and the boys ate till we was stuffed!!!

Yea buddy, nothing like fresh meat cooked in a wood boiler and cold beer to get the appetite going.

I am going to have to see if I can fabricate some type of hanger for a dutch oven in my Hawken.
