Site upgrade? I remember the last upgrade years back. That was fun. Things changed drastically for the better back then. Tweaking upgrades are nothing. Bugs are only found when things run live for a while. Fix the site and things run more smoothly. I'm all for that.

Yeah my bag. Sorry.

I have the MES sportsmen model. My unit at 2 different times got over 350°f without shutting down. One time it got over 375. This was a brand new unit at the time. I wouldn't trust the cutoff switch. I replaced everything with a pid unit I wired in and a better cutoff switch.

Wow. Smoking meat forum now talking computers. Huh. I built many computers. What sucks is the speed at which everything is evolving. I now go with laptops. You want a great gaming computer. Go with asus. The ROG versions. Them are good and come with a lot of bells and whistles. With top...

Thanks guys. Some of the credits go back to here. Learned some great things here.

Pork butt finished up nicely. Pulled out when it was at 201 and covered with foil so it can rest. Made a slaw earlier and put in the fridge to come together. Made some jalapeño poppers and a pasta salad from the store. Toasted both the big buns and the sliders. The meat now! Ok now old...

I'm into the stall point. Let's see what happens. I could cover and power through this point but I'm just going to let it go and take my dog for a short walk.

I'm used to low and slow. I'm in no rush for the finish line. Make the people wait and drool. Not that i haven't ran higher temp before. I like doing the all night smoking. Especially when temps cool at night. Thanks.

Hi all, So I've been itching to do something this spring. Decided with a pork butt after going through a list of foods. So on Thursday I pulled it out and injected it with a marinade of apple juice, apple cider vinger, soy sauce, worcestershire sauce and some of the rub. Then covered it lightly...

Been a long time since I have been in here. Noticed some names. Went searching for some ole timers. Found some resting in peace. May they be smoking up a storm where they are now. Missed some of you guys that I used to chat with. Things changed I see here. Still. Just wanted to say HI everyone.

Yeah. Been a long while since I did anything. Thanks guys for the replies.

I wouldn't let a few members get you down. I'm not in here as much and don't really know what went on. But you paid and have been here a long while. Crap your an OTBS member that made it in. There's still good old timers here. Hang with them. Post your smokes. Feel good. And don't let politics...

So why not join in on this Saturday and cook some ribs. Had a taste for these bad boys for a while now. First is the baby back ribs. Wife enjoys these the best. I like them to but crap. This day I want to go caveman on some meat. What a better piece then some big ole spare ribs. So let's get on...

A nice thick ribeye cooked medium or a nice prime rib cooked rare. Once in a blue moon meal. God I love it so much. But I rarely eat it.

Wow! What a great dinner. This is my take on a French Dip sandwich. The bread is french bread that had a nice crust to it. I cut it open and toasted it in the broiler. Then I put aged gouda cheese on the bottom. Next l layered the meat on then put the sautéed mushrooms on and sweet onions. On...
