    Okie Joe Bronco

    thanks again! it is a little hard to reach for a 74 yo with 2 bad knees...think I'll keep a 2x4 around to place under the legs to give me a little more room when I need to clean it out or open itt up.

    Okie Joe Bronco

    Hi JCAP...I appreciate the reply and the input. It brings up an issue for me. As you know, the air intake assembly runs along the side of the smoker and ends at the center bottom of the drum where there is a intake cap that moves back and forth. Is this what you are referring to as the...

    I will post for sure when I am sufficiently rested from the toils of the holiday to get this behemoth assembled.

    Okie Joe Bronco

    Happy New Year everyone Santa brought me an Oklahoma Joe Bronco smoker - the plain black one, not the glow-in-the-dark orange Pro - for Christmas. I have been using my Weber 22 in. kettle for years to smoke meat, and I have come to the conclusion there has to be a better way to smoke the...

    removed too soon?

    These replies contain valuable, hard-won input. I've learned over time that fish is a challenge on the grill or smoker. The famous Texas pitmaster Aaron Franklin has said he learned how to smoke good brisket by making bad brisket. You will always learn from mistakes. Two things I have...

    Hexclad Pan Review, Real World Real Time - Lots of Pictures!

    smoke hole

    I just had a thought...probably not a productive one, but I had it anyway. I get SnS emails because, well, I signed up after purchasing their Slow n Sear stuff. I know their kettle grills come with a smoke hole in the bottom half of the grill. Would my life change for the better if I drilled...

    Permit a newbie to dip a toe

    Hello all...I just joined the other day and this is my first real post. I'm actually also testing the waters of posting with pics. This is not an earth-shaking achievement by any means - just a 5 lb brisket flat I did on my Kettle about a year ago. Using my SnS Slow n Sear for the first time...
