"Happy Phriday Pharkers,what's Smoking this Weekend?"

Carnival Weekend in Brazil, and I am out in the countryside of Sao Paulo with Man-Flu, so I need some smoke to make my lungs feel better. I have some pork ribs and some beef ribs to do. I am making sides of homemade slaw, baked potato and baked beetroot.

I am also going to make some smoked celery salt for seasoning my beef ribs and brisket. I will oven dry the green leafy bits of the celery stalks, mix with some rough sea salt, and dampen it with something (not sure what yet - something the salt can absorb as it dries). I am then chucking that it a tray in the drum, with some pecan wood to give it a good smoke taste, and dry it all out. Hope it works well!

Good weekend to you all!

I am cold smoking, what can only be described as, a buuuttload of jerky.
