Vertical New Braunfels Smoker - Opinions?
Thanks for the reply! How good is it at maintaining temps? I'm debating between this and a WSM (which I know is great at keeping temps), but I really like the style of this one.- brandonb

Vertical New Braunfels Smoker - Opinions?
Looking to finally buy a charcoal smoker to go with my gas and electric ones. Found this one on craigslist for $175 and would hope to get it lower. Anyone have it or know anything about it? Thanks!- brandonb

Smoking Thanksgiving Ham - Cured Raw vs Pre-Cooked?
I got a pre-cooked bone-in shank so we'll see how it goes. I'm using this recipe (http://www.cookstr.com/recipes/maple-bourbon-ham) and also injected it with a pineapple/brown sugar marinade too. Boomer Sooner! -
Smoking Thanksgiving Ham - Cured Raw vs Pre-Cooked?
That's what I figured. I just saw a lot of posts about people smoking pre-cooked hams and I wondered why they'd do that over a raw cured ham. -
Smoking Thanksgiving Ham - Cured Raw vs Pre-Cooked?
Thanks for the explanations. I was hoping someone could provide comparisons of the end result of smoking a cooked vs uncooked ham. I'm trying to decide what are the pros and cons of doing each to help me figure out which one I want to smoke next week. -
Smoking Thanksgiving Ham - Cured Raw vs Pre-Cooked?
I want to smoke a ham for Thanksgiving. I've been reading around on the forum and realized that it's a bit too late for me to cure my own so my options are now to either smoke a cured raw ham or a pre-cooked ham. I see a lot of posts about smoking a pre-cooked ham. What is the difference... -
B-School BBQ Blowout - 95lbs of pure goodness - QView
BBQ was a success! Everyone loved it. We ran out of brisket and had just about 1 butt left of pork. Below are a few pictures of us finishing the pork. I will post some pictures from the actual BBQ soon. -

Updated pictures with burnt ends and finished briskets. All 8 butts are in the smoker now. (See pic of 4 of them in one.) -
B-School BBQ Blowout - 95lbs of pure goodness - QView
All briskets are done and have been in the cooler for an hour. Just pulled the first one and separated the point, cubed, re-rubbed, and put back in smoker for burnt ends. We'll see how they come out! First taste of brisket was outstanding! -

More pics...briskets looking good. -
B-School BBQ Blowout - 95lbs of pure goodness - QView
Everything going strong. Briskets are cooking much faster than I thought. At 166, 165, 161, and 160. May wait until 175ish to foil as I want to get a really good bark on them. Attached are pictures of the 4 briskets before smoking and of the two smokers in action. Don't hate on the propane... -
B-School BBQ Blowout - 95lbs of pure goodness - QView
A friend and I are throwing a BBQ this Sunday for our class. Most of those in attendance have never had real southern BBQ or even BBQ at all! I've done single butts and briskets and even a butt and brisket at the same time, but never this much! We're doing 4 briskets (8-9lbs each) and 8 butts... -
2 butts at once, different sizes - Any changes?
Any advice on best way to cut in half with bone? -
2 butts at once, different sizes - Any changes?
I like the idea of cutting the big butt in half. They are bone-in so what is the best way to cut the 9lbs in half? 13 hours seems low to me. Most of my smokes have averaged 2 hours per pound as the plateaus have been really long. Each time, I'm always running close or behind for dinner because... -
2 butts at once, different sizes - Any changes?
Having a big football watch party on Saturday so I needed a lot of pork. Largest butt I could get was 9lbs so I will be doing a 9lbs and a 4.5lbs butt. Is there anything I need to do differently with these since they'll be in the smoker together? Can I just start the 9lbs butt 18 hours before... -
20lbs Turkey Q-View
20lbs bird...soaked in Tip's brine for about 30 hours. Garlic pepper butter rubbed under skin with a light oil pepper, garlic, and paprika rub on the skin. Used a basic spritz of apple juice and cider vinegar. While it cooked faster than I hoped, a short little plateau at 155 gave me about an... -
Cooking much faster than thought...how to hold until dinner?
Well, my bird just hit a plateau at 156'. One of the firs times I've gladly welcomed a plateau! I have the smoker down to 230' right now to give me some more time too so hopefully I won't have to pull it out too early. -
Cooking much faster than thought...how to hold until dinner?
Thanks for the suggestion! I'm going to give this a shot. It's at 154 now, so I'll probably pull it at 160 and foil it. -
Cooking much faster than thought...how to hold until dinner?
I'm doing a 20lbs turkey and have had it at 250-275ish. It's cooked MUCH faster than I thought. We're having dinner at 3pm so I started it at 8am thinking it would take 5-6 hours. Well, 3 hours later and the breast is at 150' (checked it in 3 places). Since dinner isn't for 4 hours and this will...
