    Multiprobe thermometer

    Just curious if you did get the XR50, and if so, did you find a decent case for it?

    Attempting a big ole flat

    Thanks guys. I didn't realize that I wouldn't get the smoke ring. That kinda sucks. I sometimes miss my old WSM. Yeah. I finished the chicken up on the grill. It wasn't the best, but surely wasn't the worst brisket I've done.

    Attempting a big ole flat

    Well, I pulled the brisket at 205. Let it rest for an hour while everything else caught up. While it tasted good, it didn't have th normal smoke ring "look" to it. While it wasn't dry, it wasn't exactly that awesome moist either. But hey, people liked it. Everything else came out perfectly...

    Attempting a big ole flat

    Next load. Mac-n-cheeses and chick quarters. Brisket is sitting at 197. not quite ready. Hoping in about an hour, so it can rest while the chick and Mac finish. Man, I hope this plus sweet corn and garlic bread is enough food for 5 adults and 3 kids ;)

    Attempting a big ole flat

    4-1/2 hours in. Stalled at around 180. Foiled up with the rest of the injection. Smells fantastic!!!

    Attempting a big ole flat

    We have some friend coming in from out of town, so I decided to smoke a brisket, some Mac and cheese, and some chicken quarters. The wife went shopping, and instead of a whole packer, she came home with an 8.5 pound flat. I have 2 delemmas. First, I've never done just a flat, and I just got...

    Smoked Scallops

    Since we get to fly solo for the first time on Christmas day, we have a couple of ribeyes for the grill and some lobster tails we're gonna try on the smoker. I'm actually getting excited about Christmas

    Smoked Scallops

    In hindsight, I didn't smoke the shrooms. And I probably could have thrown those jalapenos in there for a bit as well. Oh well, next time

    Smoked Scallops

    So, I always forget to do this, but dammit, I'm gonna give it a shot today. I apologize for the shottiness of my final presentation pic. I've been thinking about these bad boys for two days, so I kinda rushed through at the end to "get em while they're hot" Started out with a pound and a half...

    Sirloin Tip Roast

    Imagine this, but I've come accross some conflicting info as I'm searching. I'm doing a 5# Sirloin tip roast tomorrow in my MES. I would usually smoke this for a little over 2 hours at 225* and pull it at 130* IT maybe a little less. But as I checking things out here, it seems others would...

    First attempt at 2 briskets in the electric

    So, with this winter storm starting to work it's way in, I have to smoke two briskets for a party tomorrow night.  I have my smoker in my fairly well ventilated shed to keep it out of the elements, and if needed, I can run my big torpedo heater in there to keep the ambient temp at around 45*  on...
