Actually, I have put corned beef in the smoker. In the Northeast it
is difficult to get a brisket (my son gets whole briskets for like .79
lb in Houston) and around St Patty's Day I see loads of Corned
Beef Briskets on sale.After the holiday this year, I saw some at my
local Giant food store for 1/2 price and bought a few to toss in the
freezer. Before I smoked one, I soaked it in several changes of
water to remove some of the spices and punched holes in it to
poke pieces of chile and garlic in it. I smoked it (don't recall how
long) and ate it that way. Not like Texas Brisket, but the best I can
do with what I got.
Got to make this more chile related: My hot chiles from Cross
Country are doing great. The Limon pepper has loads of pods and
they look like Lemon Drops. Arledge, Charleston Hots, Christmas
and Bulgarian Carrots are loaded too. Only one without pods is the
Habenero but it has loads of buds. My anchos/poblanos are not
doing as well. Funny thing, all my container plants are real good
with the ones in the ground being further behind.
