    GMG DB WIFI Or???

    I think I have decided on the DB Wifi. I will look into the upper rack if I need more space. I would imagine the additional electric costs are pretty much unnoticeable?

    GMG DB WIFI Or???

    Are the smoke tastes comparable? I would imagine the ease of use for the DB is a major benefit?

    How does the cooking area size compare to a WSM 18?

    GMG DB WIFI Or???

    Hello, I am switching from a WSM and I was looking into the GMG DB for a few reasons. I want a little more set it and forget it, as my smoking partner left me to enjoy smoking by myself. I also am interested in using it as a grill, so this caught my eye. It looks like the DB gets good reviews...

    What did you decide on for the pellet? I like to cook year-round.

    Which Bradley did you have? It looks like the Bradley 4 Rack is getting good reviews.

    Switching From WSM To Electric?

    Hello, I'm looking to get into an electric or pellet smoker after using a WSM. I really like my WSM, but I don't another person to help me get it set up anymore and I'd love to have something a little easier to just set and forget. In my mind I have a budget idea of around $400, but it is not...

    Pulled Pork Rub?

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a pulled pork rub that you could get at somewhere like Walmart? I know making my own would be much better, but I'm looking for a rub I can just pick up. I am smoking some pork for a co-worker, and I noticed I am out of my go-to rub. I want to grab something...

    new maverick ET-733 due for release end of october

    I'm in the market for either the ET-732 or ET-733. Does anyone have an opinion on which one I should get? I was actually about to order the 732 when I saw the 733 announcement. I can see the additions of the easier alarms, and the ability to monitor both probes for food/smoker or 1 for each...

    Help with pork butt!

    No, that could have been the stall temperature. You might have gotten to 171 right away, then stayed there for hours. I have seen stalls last 3+ hours. I would say you wouldn't need to foil on a 4lb piece, so you could just let the meat do it's thing until it gets to 195, or probe tender.

    Help with pork butt!

    The 165 temp is usually the foiling temp for those who foil. If I decide to foil, I usually let the meat get 5 hours of smoke, which will be right around 165-170. I would then take the meat off. I then wrap it in foil, and return to the smoker. This is when the meat will rise to 195. At 195, or...

    WSM 18.5" - new 2014 model??

    The new WSM does not have handles. It has a small rubber grommet to the right of the door. This will allow you to put your probes in without having to do any sort of mod.

    Silver Bullet Jacket For WSM + ATC?

    You might have me closer to being convinced ha. I was trying to figured out how to get 3 probes in through the jacket, I figured I'd have to run it through the bottom. Since I ordered the jacket, I might put it on, check it out, and if the probes are a hassle, I might use this idea.

    Silver Bullet Jacket For WSM + ATC?

    I'm not too worried about the cold, it's the rain, snow, and wind that gets me. I didn't have the best time last weekend with a 25ish mph gusting day. It ran through my charcoal much quicker, messed with my temps, and ashed over what was left.

    Silver Bullet Jacket For WSM + ATC?

    I had a problem even last weekend with maintaining temperatures without adding more fuel. The wind ashed over all of my charcoal, so I had to reload. We seem to get gusts of around 40 commonly in the winter. We also get my favorite, the -10 days in the Winter.
