    Smoking Spatchcocked Turkey

    I'm curious too. Was thinking about spatching before brine. Also and sorry I'm repeating from a different thread but has anyone used duck fat spray for crispy skin? I have a 22 lb bird I'm going to spatch, brine, and cook on my Yoder at 300 degrees using a mix of Malcolm Reed's AP Rub and...

    Smoking turkey

    Sounds like someone's a Pitts & Spitts employee. haha Anyone have any experience with duck fat spray? Curious as to the validity of the hype and if it really imparts that much flavor/helps crisping up the skin. Great advice so far. Much appreciated!

    Diving into pellet grills

    Welp. Just threw down on a YS640s w/ Comp Cart. Bought the 2 piece diffuser also for searing which was high on my capability list. Should be here in about a month. Can’t wait!

    Finally got my GRILL!!!!! OG Grilla!

    Damn man. High pressure situation right there. Cooking for the in-laws on a holiday, their choice of meat, and on a new rig? Nicely done! That smoke ring looks great!

    Diving into pellet grills

    Great post that really sums up my research from the past few months. I bought a Traeger Elite 34 last year on a whim after a lucky night at a casino. Figuring it was all I needed and currently lacking space for both, I quickly sold my Weber Spirit. I've regretted that decision every day since...

I guess I’ll just break down a draft board of my current potential picks and anyone with input regarding these certain make/models can chime in. Criteria includes...

    Opinions on Pellet grills

    I bought a Traeger Elite 34 last year. It's worked great and has pumped out some awesome product but I made the mistake of selling my Weber Spirit to cover some of the cost. Now I feel like I'm missing the high quality searing even though a steak has never touched it and I'm not really buying...

    Memorial Day

    Hey all.  I plan on smoking my second ever pork butt on Sunday for a party.  How many lbs do you think I need for 20-30 people?  Also, the first butt I smoked, I used a finishing sauce that I found on here and it was too hot from the pepper flakes.  I like heat, but after the leftovers sat in...

    First Smoker: GOSM 20" x 34" or Master Forge Double Door

    Yeah, I saw that the other day.  Pretty informative.  I wasn't too prepared going into my first smoke, but I will definitely be using the rope.  As of right now, it looks like the door thermo is pretty accurate.  I bought a little oven thermo and put it on the grate since I was in a pinch and...

    How yinz doin?

    My name's Chip and I'm from Pittsburgh, PA.  I am smoking my first meat, which happens to be a 6 lb pork shoulder, as I type this.  The Master Forge double door is my weapon of choice.  I got into smoking by mentioning to my wife how fun it is hanging out with my neighbor and knocking a few back...

    First Smoker: GOSM 20" x 34" or Master Forge Double Door

    My wife bought me the Master Forge.  I too will be trying it out for the first time this weekend.  Think I'll try a pork shoulder for starters.
