    A question about Weber's iGrill

    I bought an iGrill temperature probe when I got my smoker (very recently). I've been using the probe as an ambient thermometer while the grill heats up abd then putting it in the meat when I start smoking. I cook to temperature but I still feel like I am cooking blind because I am not tracking...

    New (to me) smoker and need advice

    Quick, dumb question: Do you lay your meat directly on the grate or use foil on the grate or some other arrangement? Oh, and for your chip tube that smokes for 20-25 minutes, are you opening the smoker to add ships every 20-25 minutes or is it in a separate compartment at the bottom?

    New (to me) smoker and need advice

    I am a failed engineer. It only took my first 2 semesters in college to realize that engineering was not for me. (At my college, they referred to engineering as "Pre-Business.") So where does your wood go? Or do you use an A-MAZE-N product for smoke?

    So why would they (Char Broil) put it in their instructions?? Yes, I realize I am one of a very small minority of people who actually read the instruction manual. I guess it makes sense... I never put a pan of water in the oven or on the grill. I have soaked my wood chips when I use them on...

    New (to me) smoker and need advice

    Wait... so water is not necessary when smoking?!? Dag. I'm learning here. So, I could take the water pan out, put the A-MAZ-N tube in the meat compartment towards the bottom and be good? No, they're good people. A little daft in the head, giving up meat - if you ask me. But, I won't...

    I did sign up and thanks! I contacted A-MAZE-N and told them I had a vertical propane smoker. They said that, with propane as my fuel source, they recommend the tube over the maze. Any idea why? (I asked them and will post the answer if no one knows.)

    New (to me) smoker and need advice

    How would I use it? My vertical smoker has the pan for wood and water above the flame and then the compartment for the meat (looks like https://www.charbroil.com/vertical-propane-gas-smoker-595). Would the pellet tray go inside with the meats (bottom rack) or in with the water?

    Thanks. I think the problem with the wood chunks is that I forgot to soak them. But, I do want to try pellets. Pellets do not need to be soaked, correct?

    New (to me) smoker and need advice

    Some friends of ours recently turned vegetarian (thoughts and prayers) and gave us their smoker. It's a CharBroil vertical propane smoker (I'm guessing it's the 595). We used it for the first time this weekend (smoked a London Broil and some chicken breasts). They turned out nice but I have a...
