    Smoker Recommendations

    Ok the Weber smokey mountain units.. I'll keep this to the obvious differences between the units. I won't say you can't produce good product on the wsm because you can and people do use them for comps. Sure you can buy a truck load of them compared to a gravity feed unit. But more doesn't...

    Smoker Recommendations

    I went with the 24 for a couple reasons, price being one of them. Nobody out there offers a gravity feed smoker of that size, with these options for the same money. Secondly I figured it would be big enough to do most anything I wanted. With 4 racks you can put a bunch of product in it. I...

    I've recently been down the same path. I have a reverse flow stick burner that works extremely well but the down sides were beginning to show. While I have access to fruit orchards nearby having to go collect the wood is kind of a pain. Constant maintainence, seems every 45 minutes I'm out...

    I didn't take any pics. Never even thought about it.  Placing the smoking wood in the heat vent passage into the cabinet worked real good. I think Ill do this for future smokes.

    Interesting idea on the skin, I seen that on a YouTube video with a pork belly. I got 3 racks of ribs and a couple ducks going on here in a few minutes. My neighbor wants the ducks done.. I could care less for duck, I told him to pan them because I didn't want any quacky drippings ruining my ribs!

    Soren, How did it turn out? Did you put any rub or seasoning on that roast?

    The racks were done by Assassin, I requested something other than expanded metal. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

    About the smoke... I know the wood chunks burn in the ash pan and the smoke has to go over the meat thru the cabinet. But.... It has to pass thru the red hot coals to get there. I can't help but wonder how much smoke is lost when it's super heated by the coals. ive often thought about putting...

    One of my only complaints is the rack spacing. It would be nice to have some additional guides installed so you can move the racks around some. As they are you can put pork butts on them as the butts are too tall and hit the rack above. It would be nice to have guides for 3 equal spaced racks to...

    Heres some before and after brisket pictures.   I can't remember if this was one of the ones above, but a sliced ready to eat picture it is.  These were the pork butts I did when seasoning the Assassin, notice the perfectly clean racks LOL
