    First Fatty questions

    So I've been on this forum a few weeks and have made some great food following posts on this forum. My next smoke I would like to do a fatty. Thinking a basic bacon cheeseburger fatty. So here are the questions. 1. What percentage ground beef is best for a fatty? I'm assuming the higher the fat...

    4th of July fattie "The Chesnut"

    I've had my smoker 3 weeks now and have been on this forum about the same amount of time. I'm addicted and have seen some amazing smokes, but I think this one looks the most appetizing! Awesome looking fatty!

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    Got the butt on at 5:15. Temp is holding at about 235. Got my 1/2 apple, 1/2 Captan Morgan spray ready to start spritzing. Hoping she turns out good. 3 hours in and the internal temp is 112. It's been holding pretty steady between 235-245. Spiked a couple times to low 250's when I've added...

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    That why I'm leaning on starting it around 5. I figure if it finishes early I could always let it rest wrapped and in the cooler for at least 2 maybe 3 hrs. I'll keep the digital probe in and make sure it doesn't drop to the dreaded 140F.

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    I do have the firebox. I also sealed around Main chamber with high temp gasket and silicone. Also put in baffle plate (see below). Last smoke I did I just used charcoal briquettes with a couple hunks of hickory every now and then. This time I'm using lump charcoal figuring it'll last longer and...

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    Just picked up a 7.75lb Boston butt from Bj's. Gonna smoke it per instructions on page 1 on my Chargriller Duo. So far I've done bacon-wrapped chicken breast and St.Louis ribs. This will be my first long smoke. I wanted to eat around 6 and I was thinking of tossing it on around 5:30am. Do y'all...

    Chargriller Duo w/mods

    I believe they make one for it. They had a couple different ones for different models and I believe that was one of them

    Chargriller Duo w/mods

    So I just smoked my first set of St.Louis Ribs using the 3-2-1 method. Sorry I didn't take any pics, but a couple of sick kids. The baffle plate helped out a lot in regulating the temp side to side. I did although have a tough time getting the temp up, and I also burned through 2/3 of an 18lb...

    Chargriller Duo w/mods

    So I just got a Chargriller Duo with the SFB. Try my first smoke the other day (bacon wrapped chicken breasts) without any mods. I was using a digital thermometer with a probe for the grill and one for the chicken. Considering as soon as I put the chicken on the sky's opened up and it downpoured...
