Welcome from Aberdeenshire! Great to have a fellow Celt.

How do you get on with the Scottish Angus? Can be a bit lean for smoking purposes, especially if it is just finished on grain or purely grazed. Getting a couple of Wagyu briskets from a local breeder tomorrow excited to see how they turn out (see the attached leaflet). He is coming round to sample the product too, so I can find out if he can ship!

Where do you get your meat from? Opening my own smokehouse in October so always interested to hear of good suppliers \ sources for Scottish produce.

Cheers and may your smoke always be blue!

Hi there I am originally from Forfar and my Wife is from Fraserburgh but now we are in West Lothian.

Aberdeen Angus I normally just have steaks and dont Smoke it, to be honest I am very new to the Smoking and got myself a ceramic egg smoker last year so working my way through trying ribs etc.

Mostly been getting from local butchers but they are no great at supplying BBQ typical cuts so I have been getting online from Campbells Meats.

I am also interested in the Wagyu Brisket as we started eating Wagyu steak couple of years ago also as a treat from time to time :-), There is a Wagyu Breader in Stirling we have used in the past.

I have also been playing around with smoking fish with mixed success.

Welcome to the Pit from western Nebraska. I will be visiting Scotland in May and I'm extremely excited to finally get there. Have a clan castle in Kirkudbright I'm looking forward to seeing.

[MeatMonster]

Anywhere near Aberdeen?

[Dr ROK]

Unfortunately, no. Will start in Edinburgh and head south to Kirkudbricht and then over to west coast. Then back to Edinburgh to fly back to Dublin for a couple days, then home.

Welcome from the San Francisco, CA area. My high school team mascot were the Highlanders. We had a cool bagpipe band and dancing lassies, which really outclassed the teams on our league.

[BourBonQ]

Welcome from the Lowcountry of South Carolina! Absolutely love your part of the world.

I've got family to the south of you that we visit regularly and we do a fair bit of fly fishing in Scotland - have fished the Rivers Tay, Nith, Orchy, Spey among others, and have fished in Loch Leven and in the River Ythan estuary at Newburgh ( MeatMonster - that's near your neck o' the woods, I believe?). And we usually (well, always) fit in a distillery tour or two on the fishing trip - helps with the fish tales...

Will be over again soon, not sure which rivers or distilleries just yet (any suggestions?...), but I do know that we will certainly be enjoying some of Scotland's most famous exports.

Glad you're here. Keep us posted.

[MeatMonster]

Missed this one! BourBonQ small world my house is a stones throw from the Ythan!!!

Try the River Dee \ Royal Deeside beautiful area, and fishing!
