Didn't get a pic but smoked some thickly sliced pork belly and made some amazing cucumber, feta, bacon sandwiches for lunch yesterday. I love my Kamado cooker more every time I use it. Can't wait for my cow to finish growing this summer, gonna be a lot of steaks and roasts cooked this fall.

I smoked a 6lb ham tonight for 6 hours with applewood. I made a honey mustard rub for it and also glazed it with a honey mustard and pineapple glaze for the last hour. It turned out amazing. I also made Rosti, which is one of Switzerland's national dishes.

Nice work Canuck!

I had the real deal when in Swizerland last year... between that, swiss chocolate and real fondue I was in heaven!

Not to mention the 6 foot tall blond bombshells walking around everywhere... what's their immigration laws like again?

Yep, I've had the real thing in Switzerland as well. Although it's a rather simple dish, it's mighty tasty! And no kidding about the blonde bombshells there........ :drool: :drool:

That looks awesome!!! I recently picked up a bunch of pork loin also that I plan on smoking and making pulled pork. Since I recently got my smoker, I've never smoked pork loin yet. Any tips?

Pork butt (front shoulder/blade) is usually used for pulled pork because they have a ton of marbling. Pork loins don't have all the luscious collagen and end up a bit dry. I prepare loins with a Cajun rub, smoke to 145 F internal so they are still a bit pink inside, usually around 3 hours. Refrigerate overnight then shave them on the slicer for sandwiches, it's good stuff! Or you could break out the curing salt to cure loins for Canadian bacon :cheers2:

Gave some "glass" potato chips a try - they turned out well, but were a ton of work for what you get out of them.

instructions for making them here:

Also made some Arctic Char en papillote with sweet corn salad, and some pasta with fresh garlic scape pesto.
