    Smoking with inconsistent temp.

    I understand where you're coming from, Okie. I didn't start using probes or temperature gauges till this year.

    Smoking with inconsistent temp.

    I tried searching for this topic, but couldn't find the answer to my question. For financial reasons, I don't have an actual smoker yet, so I smoke on an old grill I have (Getting a custom made smoker soon). The grill I use has quite a bit of leaks and is difficult to keep a temp without...

    Texas here!

    Hello everyone! Texas resident and fellow Griller here. I am a 29 year old Firefighter with aspirations to someday open a food truck company. I LOVE to BBQ! I never gave it much thought and would blow the idea away whenever people would suggest that I sell my cooked goods, but at 29 I'm starting...
