    Favorite Pellets

    I have tried Pit Boss, Traeger and Lumberjack and two other types I forget. Lumberjack has the best flavor and burns hotter, which uses less at low temps and leaves less (finer?) ash.

    Featured Help me design my outdoor space

    Since you will have a roof, consider how to vent both smoker and grill. A cupola could help, especially if you add a fan in it. Otherwise think about a chimney of some sort to get the smoke up and away, especially if at some point you may enclose it for winter use. Plenty of electricity is a...

    Pork butt (5 lb) stringy and tough after resting for 1 hour.

    Sounds overcooked How long did you cook it at 275? What kind of smoker? How do you know the smoker temp- stock thermometer or aftermarket? What about the probe that claimed 160? Have you ever calibrated your thermometers? Where did you get the roast? What did you do to it before smoking?

    Apocalypse Tri-Tip

    Went to my local supermarket. They are not restocking the shelves so they can clean the entire store on Monday. I wanted beef short ribs. Nope. How 'bout a lil tri-tip? Sold! Dry brined with kosher salt and a little bit of sugar. Added Black pepper, garlic & onion. A little smoked paprika...

    Pit boss door leak

    It was cold and windy today in Denver. I helped the GMG get up to temp quicker with an Army surplus wool blanket on the smoker. Here you can see the gasket. Look in the corners. It fits tight to the contours of the grill.

    Pit boss door leak

    I bought a high temp gasket for the door in my Green Mountain. It works great, doesn't leak at all. I used to avoid the deck when it was on because a lot of smoke escaped. Now it all goes up the chimney.

    Camp Chef Charwood

    A new Sportsman's Warehouse opened in my neighborhood. I was wandering around today and found some Camp Chef Charwood pellets, Hickory or Cherry. $12.50 for a 20 pound bag. Not too bad of a price. Anyone have any experience with them? I figure for that price, I won't feel too bad dumping them...

    Smoked Beef Cheeks

    "The Cook’s Cuts, available exclusively in Woolworths stores now." The last time I was in a Woolworth's was 1986. I was told to by security to never come back after they caught my buddy stealing one of the rubber band things for a slingshot. Pretty sure they have been out of business in the...

    Weber SmokeFire pellets. Anyone tried?

    Lumberjacks are $17 a bag in Denver. PitBoss at WalMart are the least expensive $8.88. I saw the Weber stuff at Lowe's today. Came here looking to see if anyone has tried them. They are a blend which I am not a fan of either.

    Cusinart Pellets?

    Never seen them. They don't seem too expensive. Buy a bag and try 'em. I just saw Weber branded at Lowe's and came here looking to see if anyone has tried them.
