    Electric suggestion?

    I found a used Cookshack SM60 with the storage cabinet bolted to the bottom. I cleaned and rewired it. I ditched the CS controller and just went with a wired in cord that I plugged into the Auber 1520 PID w/wifi. I added a Bella CSG on the side and only use the internal element for heating...

    Pellet containers

    I also have 5 gallon white buckets with Gamma2 screw off lids. They stack nice next to my pellet bags. I sharpie what is inside them so I can grab and go / change out as needed. I've not had any issues with humidity as the lids have a gasket seal.

    I am getting a little to serious about peppers

    I can tolerate the Fresno on that list. I make a fermented hot sauce with garlic with it that is popular in my circle. Have you thought of trying that for your explosive mix? It's great for keeping the heat going all year long till the next harvest.

    Newer Amerique controller for CS SM066 - almost new

    $100 OBO - Almost new. It was a new replacement installed on a used SM066 that I bought. The guy that bought it replaced the original broken controller and only tested the new unit but didn't use the smoker. I took the new PA170 off to add my own PID controller. The PA170 ran fine when I tested...

    VENISON SNACK STICK

    When my smoker is just sitting empty it is begging for some other modification or upgrade... Great looking sticks! I'm going to get a venison/butt batch going myself soon and seeing yours motivates me. I've got a few Walton's seasonings bags to try.

    Hello from Colorado

    I'm new to the forum but not new to smoking. I grew up ranching, hunting and fishing and grilling and smoking stuff from all three. I miss my grandpa's venison summer sausage and breakfast links so I'm starting to learn about making my own. Being an engineer I have to read a few books first, ask...
