What’s Smokin’? 3 of the Best Meats to Smoke for a Delicious Meal

February 24, 2021 / by Andrew / Leave a Comment

Warmer weather will soon be upon us, meaning now is the time to invest in a quality smokin’ device to help you serve up the best-smoked meats at your next summer barbeque. Smoking quality meat is more than just a culinary practice, it is also a time-honored form of American recreation that has a devoted following of smoked meat connoisseurs.

Quality smoked meat tastes amazing when done right, and offers an unforgettable communal dining experience for yourself, your friends, and your family. If you are new to the world of meat smoking and do not know where to start, you have come to the right place. Read on to find out the very best meats to smoke in time for your next barbeque.

1. Best Meats to Smoke For Beginners: Pork for Days

If you want to know how to smoke meat as a beginner, your best bet is to go for pork. Recipes such as pulled pork and smoked pork chops are guaranteed crowdpleasers that do not require a huge amount of prep and finesse to get just right. First, you will need to invest in a quality vertical pellet smoker that will allow you to smoke any pork dish with minimal supervision or effort.

If you are feeding a large crowd, then smoked pulled pork is the way to go. Pulled pork is also substantially easier to prep and cook than its more sophisticated sister dish, beef brisket. Pork chops simply need to be marinated and thrown on the smoker, before being left for a few hours to cook.

Smoked pork ribs require virtually no effort whatsoever to smoke to perfection, just throw them on and wait until the internal temperature has hit that sweet spot. You get the picture.

2. Crowd-Pleasing Smoked Chicken

If you have grills for smoking meat and want to serve up something that truly everyone will love, then a smoked chicken is absolutely the way to go. People might be wary of eating chicken due to the fact that raw chicken can be so dangerous to consume, but the smoking method is undoubtedly one of the safest ways to prepare chicken.

What’s more, you can simply stick a whole chicken on a spit and leave it to smoke. When smoking a whole chicken, you do not need to go crazy with seasoning, as salt and garlic will do the trick. However, you will need to be mindful of marinating to ensure it does not dry out.

3. Steak for Seasoned Meat Smokers

If you are looking for the best-smoked meats for seasoned smokers, then you are ready for some hardcore beef dishes. The piece de resistance and the gold standard is always going to be smoked beef brisket, but you had better be prepared to put in a few hours of solid prep and supervision in order to get it just right.

In addition, smoked beef steaks are always a good idea, especially if you opt for fattier cuts such as porterhouse or if you’re feeling especially extravagant, tomahawk. What is important is to keep a very close eye on your beef to ensure you get the smoky outside with a pink and juicy inside. This requires careful supervision and a fair amount of regulation basting. However, it is always worth it.
