Memorial Day Barbecue on the PR36 Smoker

Friday, June 10th, 2011

I hope everyone is staying cool and enjoying plenty of barbecue. I just love cooking and eating in the back yard!

On Memorial Day, Marlin and I got together and cooked a whole bunch of stuff on Meadow Creek’s PR36 Backyard Smoker. The PR36 Smoker is small, versatile, and easy to use. For indirect (low and slow) cooking, we build the fire beneath the drip pan. Or you can build your fire on the drip pan for direct heat grilling.

Here is a photo album to get your mouth watering and your brain spinning. We cooked meatloaf, pork tenderloin, a whole chicken, potatoes, onions, and steaks. Was it ever good! 🙂

Have fun,

Lavern
