[QUOTE="Dillon, post: 66515, member: 473"] I got a sample of this recently, and I'm curious about how the members here prepare their plugs. What I've done is kind of peel thick layers of the chunk I got off and cut them longways with a pocketknife, then cutting into even smaller pieces. I smoked a bit of it after that much preparation, and it smoked horribly, even though it was delicious. It was also pretty moist, but it was going out [i]way[/i] too often. So last night I cut it up even finer--gathering all the bits into a clump then cutting it, clumping, cutting, clumping, cutting, just to reduce the size of the leaves. Not too fine (not nearly as fine as the Black Pigtail that I basically diced into tiny bits and might only be used now as a condiment), but still in small bits. I haven't tried smoking it this way yet, but I hope that cutting helped. I also find that I have to cut up my ropes pretty fine as well, and then pack the bits pretty tight to get a good smoke. Does anyone enjoy leaving plugs/ropes in a larger, leafier form? And how moist/dry do you smoke them? [/QUOTE]
