New Pit Boss Model at Walmart
I appreciate RCAlan's comments. As I said, there is quite a learning curve going to a pellet grill for the first time. I expect I'm going to be learning for some time to come. Overall I am quite happy with the smoker!- goodwyne

New Pit Boss Model at Walmart
This is also my first pellet grill / smoker and there is a significant learning curve compared to other types of smokers. When your heat source and smoke Source are the same, he takes precedence. This means that sometimes you just don't get as much smoke as you might like. My answer to that has...- goodwyne

First Fattie, Bacon wrap undercooked?
He's got one good thermometer 'cause I gave it to him. I'm afraid he's gonna pass me in short order when it comes to smoking meat! Ron -
Before and After the SMF
When I bought my first smoker a couple of years ago, I was very leary of wasting meet in the process of learning. So I went to the web and searched. I found a lot of resources but SMF quickly became my "go to" resource. I read a ton of threads and bought Jeff's recipes. I can honestly say...- goodwyne

"Perfect Flame" brand smoker questions
Haven't posted here in a while but since I just bought a new smoker I thought I'd check back in. I just bought this smoker after using an electric ECB for the last two years. That was my first smoker and that's when I discovered this place! It worked great but when the element finally went, I...- goodwyne

1st Boston Butt
Yes Carl, the water pan was kept full throughout the smoke. And the meat was exceptionally tender and moist and pulled beautifully. Like I said, the bone practically fell out and pulling was a breeze. The dinner was a resounding success. Not only was the pork excellent but the black eyed... -

Bring 'er on Carl. We'll be eatin' for a while. One neighbor bringing her signature rum cake, which is amazing. Lots of food, friends and fellowship. And a little adult beverage to go with it. It's gonna be a great night!! -
1st Boston Butt
The final product is in and it's fabulous! A couple of pics follow. I still don't understand why this butt cooked so fast. Start to finish it took about 7 hours instead of the 12 I expected. Whatever the case, it is awesome! As everyone describes, the bone pulled out clean and this butt... -
1st Boston Butt
Well, at 1:15 the butt was at 202 so I shut the smoker down and left the butt in it for a while. When the internal temp dropped to 195 I pulled it, wrapped it in towels and put in the cooler. It's been resting there since. When I uncover it I'll take a couple more picks. I don't understand... -

12:30 and internal temp is 195. I figure 30 more minutes and I'll shut the smoker down. I was thinking about just leaving it in the smoker for a bit after unplugging it, then transfer to the cooler after about 30-45 minutes. -
1st Boston Butt
Well, it's 11:30 and the internal temp is 175 now. Smoker temp with no smoke is 257. I don't think I'll have any problem serving pulled pork at 6:00. I sure do like having the two digital thermometers. Being able to see my smoker temp and meat temp with out opening the smoker is great! -
1st Boston Butt
It's 10:45 now and the butt was up to 165. SO I went ahead and pulled it and foiled it. It was on the bottom rack of the smoker, now it's on the top rack. I'm really afraid I'm cooking this thing too fast and I don't understand how that's even possible with this smoker. I have one idea... -
1st Boston Butt
Okay, I just did not believe the internal temp reading so I decided to move the temp probe. I've moved it around to several places and I've also used my old analog thermometer and every place I check says between 155 and 160 degrees! How is this possible after only 4 hours? I expected this to...
