    Should I Pull The Trigger On This GMG?

    I currently own a stick burner actually. I’ve had it several years. There is no doubt the smoke flavor can’t be beat, and when everything works I love it. But after years of fighting with it half the time, and not doing my favorite meat (brisket) near as often I want cause the long cook is so...

    Should I Pull The Trigger On This GMG?

    I need some help. I've been waiting for a good deal to finally make the change to pellet smoking. A local dealer of Green Mountain Grills is moving show rooms and closing out there smokers. I'm guessing they are also getting ready for the new Prime models (hopefully everyone has seen the new...

    Overnight Fire Maintenance

    I have a horizontal offset. For the first couple years I just did charcoal with wood chunks (but never chips). I had to check the temp and adjust the baffle once an hour. It was so time consuming and took all the fun out of it. It ruined a whole day off. I never did anything that smoked over...

    Wings with Mac/Cheese

    These all sound too hard. Or not smoked. Do a search on here for smoked mac and cheese. There is a couple but the no boil method is the one you want. It's not mine but I've made it a few times and its incredible. Raw noodles, milk, butter,and cheese I believe. It's that simple. Put in smoker for...

    Butts after dark (pics included)

    Lol. Sorry I didn't finish this up. They got done around 7 at night. They we're so delicious I didn't get pictures. It was I nice way to do them over night. I do think I'm gonna start wrapping them though. As much as I like bark that was just way to long.

    New to offset smokers! A few questions I need help with. Any help would be appreciated.

    So I'm only a few years experienced at offset smoking, and i dont know your smoker, so don't trust everything I say. But my suggestions would be; 1.Exhaust all the way open. Only control with the intake. 2.I use charcoal for heat the whole time and wood chunks for smoke. Charcoal is much more...

    First brisket flat. Is this temp right?

    So doing my first ever brisket. Its a 3.5lb flat. I'm very excited cause brisket is my favorite BBQ meat. I'm following Bearcarvers method from a few years ago. He had a 3.75lb flat. I put the meat on at 7:15 with plans of eating around 6ish. Should be right on with his timeline. Flameboss is...

    Meatloaf with new FlameBoss(light Qview)

    A few weeks ago I came across a clearance FlameBoss 200 WiFi since the new 300 is coming out. Been wanting one for my offset so I'll actually get to smoke as often as I want. So after seeing good reviews here decided to jump on it. Decided to test it with a meatloaf. Kinda an impromptu cook. Had...
