    First smoke on the BellFab

    I recently put a charcoal basket in my Bellfab offset. I originally bought it for my PK360 but hated it in that grill because I think it blocked airflow. In the offset it works great. I just put a chimney of lump in the basket and a couple of splits on top and I'm good to go. My smoker runs...

    Weber SmokeFire

    I would say the pellet consumption is greater than my Grilla Silverback was. I don't know the reason for better smoke flavor but it's probably a combo of several things. The fact it has the flavorizer bars instead of a big deflector plate also plays a significant factor in my opinion.

    Weber SmokeFire

    I've had an EX6 for about a year now. Mine was a gen 1 but I installed all the upgrades which Weber sent for free before ever firing it up. I've not had many problems with mine. You do have to clean it out regularly especially after a long cook. I use drip pans which makes that pretty easy. The...

    Storing meat after smoking

    Just bought a vacuum sealer, the Inkbird with the discount code from this site is like 30 bucks. Works great for a backyard cook not using it everyday. I've cut down significantly on waste. I hated firing up the offset and burning expensive wood when I couldn't fill it up. With the vacuum sealer...

    Plate Ribs

    I recently got some of these at Sam's Club. They never have them out since they cut them into the flanken style ribs. I saw one of their meat cutters working on them and asked if I could buy the whole plate. She went in the back and brought out a cryovac with four full plates in it. Not cheap...

    First smoke - boneless chuck beef ribs

    Here is a pretty good article about cooking at altitude. If you get it much above the boiling point where you are at it can dry out pretty easily. I usually start checking things around 198 and they are typically done at a lower temperature than people at sea level might experience...

    Question on Brisket method

    Too complicated for me but interested to see how it turns out. Malcolm Reed has a good recipe for ultra low and slow brisket on a pellet grill on his youtube channel that's worth watching if you haven't already.

    To wrap or not to wrap...

    I'm north in Weld County. I was told the Rudy's in Colorado Springs was their busiest location in the country. There was one in Greeley for a few years but it closed down not too long ago. Rudy's isn't bad but authentic BBQ joints seem to struggle here.

    To wrap or not to wrap...

    I've tried it every way and I prefer to wrap. My offset runs at 275 plus easily and I'm also in Colorado. As you know it's pretty dry here so I think wrapping helps. I prefer butcher paper or the foil boat method and have had pretty good success.

    Peach wood

    Fruita Wood company has peach readily available. The Western Slope of Colorado where they are located is well known for producing some of the best peaches in the world. I was out there a few months ago and picked up some peach chunks. It tastes great, but the smell is even better.
