    A couple questions on the reverse flow theory

    I have had good success with this smoker but I need more capacity. Really the only thing that is of a concern is efficiency, I have been thinking of ways to bring down the costs associated with a stick burner. If you look into the pricing of the insulation that BBQ engineer used you will see...

    A couple questions on the reverse flow theory

    I have been thinking about this for awhile. You guys have confirmed what I thought, there will always be hot and cold spots, the idea is to minimize the discrepancy between them. The cool thing about discussing this, we can all learn the pros and cons of different set-ups, then decide for...

    A couple questions on the reverse flow theory

    When you have an offset burner, even with the reverse flow system, isnt there still hot and cold spots? With the tuning plates in, are there spots that are "smokier" than others? Wouldnt a burner box that is behind (as you are standing at the smoker) the smoke chamber, have even heat and smoke...

    Wet or dry?

    dry, my rub is the sauce after an hour after a few hours...see the crust building? resting beauty shot :) Basically I make a brown sugar heavy rub and it caramelizes on the ribs. The ribs then taste sweet, then salt, then savory and finally heat Props to MrPinkDon'tTip on this...

    1st pulled pork try..with QVIEW

    Turkey legs with qview

    Thank you! I did NOT brine them, matter fact I wasnt even going to smoke anything yesterday....was a spur of the moment thing they were rubbed about 15mins before slapping on the smoker. Since I did the corned beef brisket at the same time, I wasnt worried about over smoking, so after I...

    First try at brisket (somewhat)

    I had a corned beef brisket lying around, figured I would make pastrami. So I debrined it and let it sit in water for a day. Then I figured I would make smoked corned beef lol So I had to rebrine for a couple days with my own brining solution. Rubbed down with mustard and a rub I had...

    PP - Missing out with no finishing sauce?

    your water pan is only there to temper the heat, think of it as a heatsink, when the heat goes low, your pan releases heat, when the heat is hot, it absorbs heat. finishing sauce, use the juices collected and reduce, deglaze with jack daniels, then taste, should have to add: black pepper...
