    stumps clone ash box size

    My ash catch box is only 3-4" high, i can run for about 48 hours before it gets really full. The cool thing about the efficiency of the gravity feed style is that the ash basically turns to a really fine dust, even when using briquettes. Don't know if you have looked at mine or not...

    My Vertical Reverse Flow Smoker

    That looks awesome, and portable. Just curious, are you going to use any insulation on the smoker walls to help retain heat?  That would probably double the weight of the the thing.  How much weight can that trailer hold?

    Char Sui Pork

    I have tried this from scratch a couple times, never could get the strong sauce taste that i get at the chinese BBQ place. Maybe its time to just try one of those NOH pre-made sauce packets.

    Brisket Pastrami - Q View

    Actually, all is not lost. The first brisket was much thinner than the other 2, which were about twice as thick. These thicker briskets are only moderately salty and turning out to be edible.

    Brisket Pastrami - Q View

    I used pop's brine for 1 gallon. The recipe calls for 1/3 to 1 cup of salt.  I used the full 1 cup. 12 days in the brine.

    Brisket Pastrami - Q View

    Money Shot: Looks great!  Way too salty. Always do a fry check before smoking cured meats. Lesson learned. I was too aggressive with my first try at pastrami.  Should have just experimented with a small amount first.
