I can see the level of negativity here. God Bless ya'll. I am going elsewhere. Bye. From reading the replies, I realize that sourcing stuff you can buy right down the street is for losers (in your opinion.) Good luck with that ya'll. Smoking meat is an artistic thing. You folks want it to be...

Dang, short ribs are hard to get here. You have to show up in the morning before the butchers have had their coffee. I put them in the meat grinder. They make the best hamburgers ever. I think what you propose is pretty nice though.

In regards to smoked brisket, nothing beats "time served." 15lbs @ 225 should be a long sentence well worth it. Best of luck! ARR

Not sure where to put this one. I buy this brand of lump, because it entertains me. Most of the time, it is an assortment of different size pieces. Occasionally, I get a bag with pieces that are like unsplit firewood. I know... I won the charcoal lottery. I love those because in my...

I use Lil' Devil pellets in mine. Put the torch to it for 30 seconds and stand by for a bit. Works great. By the way, mine is a 12 inch A-Maze-N. Smokes for a long time.

Yum! I smoked some nice prime rib-eyes last weekend. Did I get nice photos like this? NO! I blame the vodka.

If only...hehe

I'm the same way. Propane torch works great. I guess if that didn't work, I would limp back to the shop, and grab the oxy-acetylene torch and fire it up. LOL

I use a Thermopro. It works just fine for me. It has an alarm when the meat gets to temp. It was less than 20 bucks. I could have multiple ones for what some probes cost. I like it because it is magnetic. I just put it on the door and it stays.

I would be inclined to say put it somewhere and the moderators will let you know where it should go. They are awesome folks. Let them play the role they enjoy.

Very cool!

Apple is nice to blend in on a cook like this. It throws a lot of mild smoke. It works as a great carrier for something like hickory or pecan. Nicely done. I'm jealous.

I use hemostats. I have a pair of 12 inch ones. I grab the membranes and just roll the hemostat from one end to the other. Works real nice.
