    Awesome chicken thighs!!

    This past Sunday I threw some chicken thighs on the the ole Brinkmann Trailmaster. After making a batch of basic chicken rub from Myron Mixon's Smokin' book. I should have put some more rub after turning them over. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Your 5 day course

    Jeff, I received your course via email several weeks back and I am just going thru the information. Pretty good and useful information. However, I was a little disappointed when I was going through chapter 4 smoking equipment and supplies. I didn't see any mention of the infamous UDS, I call...

    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited Edition

    I wonder why manufacturers always place them on the top. Heat rises so your actually getting the temp that collects at the top. As long as your in the ballpark of 1" to 1 1/2" from grate level the temps should be pretty good. However, I would get some higher end thermos like Tel-Tru thermos...

    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited Edition

    Hey everyone, I sealed up the smoke stack and handle underneath. I sealed it up with some Rutland clear (pic above). I also swapped out the cheap bolts and replaced with stainless steel bolts, lock washer and nut. I will eventually change all the bolts and nuts sometime later. Plus it gives it a...

    Hi & Hello from Hollister, Ca

    Hey all! Thanks for the warm welcome. Sorry for the late reply, things got a little busy. Venture, not sure about the Mexican restaurant. There are quite a few. I haven't checked them all out yet and been here 5 years.

    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited Edition

    Hey All, So I went out and bought a 90 degree elbow, galvanized steel for a smoke stack extension. Then I was reading where galvanized steel shouldn't be used around food. So back to the drawing board on that, unless anyone else used something different. I also bought some Rutand clear RTV...

    Hi & Hello from Hollister, Ca

    I put together a drum smoker (kit I bought from Big Poppa Smokers) and have been using that for the last six months or so. After looking on the net and wanting to move up,  I recently purchased a Brinkmann Trail Master Limited. After a disastrous thanksgiving using the Brinkmann I found this...

    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited Edition

    Hey All, I bit the bullet this last Sunday and bought my Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited. During assembly I noticed the ash pan didn't seat firmly to the ash frame. See photo. This is a pic inside the firebox and ash pan. Moving up from a Engineered Drum Smoker (kit from Big Poppa Smokers) I...
