2014年9月4日 · Love seeing hanging meat in the smoker. They make a bacon hanger, which is a bar with multiple hooks on it. Stab the hooks into the rack of ribs and hang. A single hook doesn't work good. Make sure you get into the meat and not right under the bone. Too much chance for it to pull the one off if you get them to tender!

2021年8月8日 · I have one. I made my own. Even the stainless steel meat hooks. It works great! Worth it! Just gotta really watch how long you keep that meat hanging, sometimes the meat can get so tender the meat hooks will rip out causing the meat to fall into the fire! Ask me how I know!! Ha ha! I always now keep the lower food grate in. And of course water ...

2008年1月4日 · I've made hooks for hanging my turkeys (inside a stockinette or mesh bag) out of old clothes hanger wire. It's always avail., cuts and bends easily with common tools, but remains rigid enough to support 10+ lb. turkeys. Not as pretty as some matls. but gets the job done.

2024年3月13日 · This may have been discussed before but I couldn't find anything. I just got an MES 40 so I can hang the snack sticks and wonder what others have done to make this work well. Dowels in the rack track? I don't want to end up with a pile in the bottom of the smoker.

2014年3月1日 · Yes, I'm thinking of using S hooks and just hang the skewers from the bottom of a grate. Glad to see I'm not the only one who collect metal clothes hangers. On top of the grate, I could lay a Qmat to support some small pieces.

2016年5月16日 · I need two things now that I have my smokehouse done. 1. Meat Hooks I need hooks for hanging deer and other meat for making dried beef and hams on 1 1/4" dowels. I will buy them but I am considering buying cold rolled steel and bending my own hooks and seasoning them in a fire and blacking...

2019年12月3日 · Can you load the sausages on the hooks first, and then hold the grate with one edge of it balanced on the smoker while you hang sausages from the under side. Then take both hands and lower the grate with the sausages hanging into the WSM? Getting a separate modified grate isn't a bad idea, but this way will get you going now.

2019年10月2日 · I built a hanging rack for my drum smoker about 10 years ago, before that I smoked my bacon on a rack, but would turn it a couple of times to keep the doneness and color even. Using a side-by-side taste test I found that I prefer hanging in the drum for the hot smoking step, and use 2 hooks per slab to keep it a little straighter.

2019年3月22日 · Hi, Me too so I drilled 4 holes one inch from the top and inserted the side rails. I bought 3/4” angle iron and cut two pieces to the width of the smoker. I ground 3 grooves, then decided 4 more in them and then cut 4 3/8” rebars to the depth (f/b) of the unit. I placed them in 4 of the grooves and bought Stainless hooks on amazon for ...

2022年12月26日 · If you do the sausage hanging "mod" you can hang 20 pounds no problem in an MES 40. The mod is to cut some wood that slides behind the rack holders at the top. The wood presses against the left wall and right wall and slides down to …
