Be sure to add about a cup of fine bread crumbs or cracker crumbs and an egg the the burger to help bind it.

RG Try this for ribs
      Keep ribs whole in rack. Rub with what ever you like .Also some BBq sauce. place in foil pan (large). pour in can of PEPSI. NOT COKE.Cover with foil.  Bake at 375-350 about 1 1/2 hour . Pull out of oven let cool. Place in fridge over night. Next day remove ribs from grease and slice. They slice really nice when chilled. Get out your BBq sauce and go to town on your grill.

soup can full of wood chips eh? ;) What kind of wood did you use?

I am going to whip up some NY strip kabobs tonight, smoked with mesquite. I don't get too frilly with them, just chunks of meat and onion on bamboo skewers. I may try some sweet marinade, these steaks have been in the freezer a little too long. :-\ I was digging for a pork roast and saw a single package of steaks near the bottom. The date on the package is May '08. They were vacuum sealed so I bet they are fine.

Soup cans are for amateurs...real cooks use BEAN cans ;D
It's beechwood. Had some firewood left.  I've found that less is much, much better.

I am going to try some sugar maple tonight. I am a little short on the "good" hardwoods around here, so I am looking for some alternatives. I have mostly poplar (quaking aspen), paper birch, ash, box elder, and various types of maple. I have an ancient whiney apple tree that I thought was dead, but it budded out in late May. I am going to prune it this fall to save it's life  I also have conifers, but pine tar tastes a little strong. ;D

I think maple should be the best choice. I just cant bring myself to but sawdust anymore, so I need to find some native alternatives.

Hey Skip, do you guys have Mulberries up there. It's great for smoking and grows in about every country road ditch around here. Most people don't want them as the birds crap purple all over they're cars. I usually use fruitwoods of some sort, apple, cherry, mulberry, peach and such as I like the flavor a little more than the hardwoods.
RG the clams look Delicious!!! Can I steal the recipe ;)

No mulberries, but I have raspberries everywhere I look. Do you think they would work? I just need to start experimenting with all kinds of stuff. I just hate to risk screwing up prime corn and grass fed Minnesota red Angus beef. The ribeyes are about 60% lean. You cant even buy stuff this good in the grocery store.

Buy local beef right off the farm. You would not believe how much better meat you will get for the same price or even less. It is a pretty big purchase to buy a half of quarter steer, but it will save you in the long run. You can get a whole hog butchered, processed, and put in your freezer for less than $300. Sometimes a neighbor is a good person to split a large purchase with too. It is nice to know where your food comes from and how it was raised. I work on a farm so meat is one of the fringe benefits. I also have a good relationship with other farmers and a reputable meat locker. My freezer floweth over! ;) 

I don't eat meat unless I get to meet it first. ;D

Can I steal the recipe ;)

It's pretty simple;
1 dozen cherrystone clams, washed and steamed till just opened (save shells)
4 strips bacon
1/4 green, yellow and red bell pepper
1/4 red onion
Parmesan and Mozzarella cheese 
Sea sale and fresh ground  black pepper

Chop bacon and clams
Dice peppers and onion
mix in a bowl
season with salt and pepper

Clean and rinse shells and split into halves
Fill shells with the mixture and top with Parmesan and shredded Mozzarella cheese

Place filled shells in shallow pans (I use pie plates). Cover with tin foil for 10-15 minutes and roast slow over indirect heat. Remove foil and roast till browned and tender.

You can add a can of chopped clams and add the juice to the shells for extra flavor. I save the clam shells for future use. Just boil them in a small pot of water to clean after use.

LIGHTLY smoked is very tasty.

Enjoy ;D

By the way, I've been thinking of adding some chopped panfish fillets to this recipe. Haven't gotten around to it yet.

Thanks RG, gonna give that recipe a lash for sure.
I hear ya on the beef skip, one of the businesses we own is a steakhouse/lounge so I have a pretty good source of fine steaks (living in Nebraska is a nice bonus when you love beef as much as I do). We also serve shrimp, lobster, crablegs, whole catfish and pasta's. I still find time to crank up the Weber or the smoker, as a matter of a fact we don't open til 5:00 so if you will excuse me guys I have something to attend to ;D

skipper, the raspberry isn't hard enough. but i'm sure you have some sort of wild cherry around. black cherry would be the best.
