Poultry Smoking Tips
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCP6kYa0Yqr7Ihz-urYbcGgnOaqG_DYlqDySSluj1n7hdghxIAdT4c3IcI3FgNjrHWkzfvYE59FSz7KRBC2QUfv7KrIXvbPifhd08ZPTCPLkzzUb6w3OVhao56TO94lr1EWA8LZxwmGjUA/s200/gamehens-plattered.jpg)
Before you start smoking, I’d like to share a few "secrets" that will help you create the best smoked poultry ever.
1.Brining works magic on poultry
A brine of salt, sugar, seasonings and water can do wonders to poultry. During the brine, liquid is absorbed into the flesh, adding moisture, flavor, and improving the texture. The absorbed water also conducts heat, so the plumped up bird will cook faster.
2.Don’t overcook poultry
Whole poultry can be challenging to cook because different parts of the bird are done at different temperatures. Breast meat is done at 170 Fahrenheit, while the thigh is done at 180 F. Foil placed over the breast partway through smoking will prevent it from overcooking. Remove the bird from the smoker when the thigh reaches 175 degrees and the breast reaches 165. The temperature will raise five degrees as it rests before carving.
3.Add seasoning underneath the skin
To make the best use of seasonings and rubs, put them between the skin and flesh of the bird. This is where they'll make the greatest contribution to flavor.

Get your Rib Roast at CCM and Try This!
Oven Baked Smoky Beef Rib Roast
Ingredients:Dry age the rib roast in the fridge for two-to-four days in a large container, lightly covered with foil. Dry aging concentrates the flavor and tenderizes the meat.
- 1 bone-in beef rib roast
- Salt and pepper
- Garlic powder
- Liquid smoke
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Insert a remote thermometer probe into the center of the roast. Cover the rib roast with a loose fitting foil tent. This prevents the outside of the roast from excessive drying as it cooks. Pop the roast into the oven.
Roast that wonderful hunk of beef until the internal temperature reaches 120F, then remove it from the oven to rest. In twenty minutes or so, the internal temperature will rise to 130F.
Crank up the oven temperature to 500F, and crisp the outside of the beef roast for ten minutes or so. Don't overdo it or the house will fill with smoke (like mine did!).
Remove the roast from the oven and cover it with the foil tent until ready to serve. The interior of the smokyh prime rib roast should be perfectly cooked to a beautiful medium rare. Enjoy!
