    Electric Smoker Modifications

    You revived an ancient thread to post THAT? Wow. To anyone out there who cares the electric smoker w the temp controller still works great.

    Couple of Pork Shoulders Going in shortly. Elec. Smoker... water pan question inside.

    Well here I sit, temp nearing 180.  Since I use a 10" pizza pan for my wood chip tray just above my elements (added 2 el charcoal starters to the mix) all controlled by my thermocontroller... I decided to add a few briquettes a couple of times.  No fires, they just became ashen and then a pile...

    Couple of Pork Shoulders Going in shortly. Elec. Smoker... water pan question inside.

    About to kick off a couple of shoulders in my modified Elec. ECB.  Half thinking of throwing unlit charcoal in the water pan instead of water.  Any thoughts on this?

    Electric smoker with charcoal

    I was thinking of putting charcoal in my water pan, with my electric elements being used for heat below.  I wonder if that would be a good idea.

    Electric Smoker Modifications

    OK.  Immediately after building the controller I made a fundamental error.  I was so overjoyed that I could regulate the temperatures automatically that I figured enough smoke was escaping from the gaps in the sides and I kept the smoker lid closed.  I basically left the smoker, only to add more...

    Electric Smoker Modifications

    OK, I have 2 "mods" to share.  #1 is my wood chip pan.  It consists of 3 screws and a 12" pizza pan from Wal-Mart (<$3.00).  It sits just above the element and works great for chips.  Not very good for chunks though.  #2  After seeing WingNut's post, I went on a mission to build a...

    I never want to do this again. Please help.

    I have been smoking for a few years with an ECB.  Playing with the lid and door for hours in the hot MS sun was not my idea of fun, so I figured I'd help things out a bit and buy the same model... only electric.  As you probably know, it was the same thing... only without having to keep feeding...

    Electric Smoker Modifications

    Wingnutt, I sent you a PM. I've been looking online to see if I could buy a temperature controller.  I thought I had one in the Brewer's Edge E54, but after calling them I found out that the max operating temperature was 200 F.  I would love to build one of those, if it wasn't too terribly...

    AVOID Chaney Instruments (ACCU-RITE) Digital Wireless

    About 7 months ago, I purchased an Acu-Rite 00993ST (wired) for cooking in my smoker. I have used the product less than 2 or 3 times. Since I have purchased the thermometer, the magnet has come off of the back, and now the probe display reads *HI*. I have read the FAQ on their website which...

    It's been a while

    It's been a while since I last was on. I've been smoking chickens pretty regularly since I got started. I haven't moved on to anything else yet, but everyone who's tried my chicken loves it. Just wanted to drop in and say "Thanks"
