    First Smoke w/Large Cut of Pork Shoulder - - Temp Question

    I have a basic Charbroil gas smoker. I have done ribs and 4-5 # butts well. I decided to try my hand at a good 8# butt. It's the biggest cut I've attempted smoking. It fits on the grate but again it's large. I have a maverick Et733 probe about 4 inches to left of the meat AND an Acurite oven...

    Charbroil 600 Gasser / Needle Valve

    I've run into the same issue with high temps that a lot of people have and want to install the needle valve. I've seen conflicting ways on how to do it. I already have detached my regulator hose from my burner. Can I just install the valve directly onto the burner and then reattach the...
