    Heat distribution conundrum

    I tried fixing that issue by buying that Lavalock which today was my first time using it so it's brand new. Is Lavalock not reputable enough? I thought they had a decent reputation for making quality products but I could be wrong. I'm trying to obtain that full cooking chamber convection that...

    Heat distribution conundrum

    I recently bought a new baffle system for my Brinkmann Cimarron and I was breaking it in this evening. I'm getting pretty even temps across the grille grates and those are the temps on my Thermoworks thermometer in the picture below. The confusion that I'm running into is the thermometer on the...

    Want to buy a smoker, a few questions.

    I use two types of gloves. These ones are for grabbing super hot stuff like coals and metal while cooking (I use them to shake out the ash grate every once in awhile to get better airflow): And then I have ones like these to grab a piece of meat that's hot to move it or feel it for doneness...

    Want to buy a smoker, a few questions.

    I'm fairly new to the BBQ scene as well although my introduction has been a little different. First I've never used a pellet grill and I probably never will. Some might call me too much of a purist, but I think pellet grills stray too far from traditional BBQ for my liking (not saying you...

    Where to probe brisket?

    Thanks for sharing! I've only done 3 briskets so far and because of that I still am developing that "feel" and "probe tenderness" that everyone talks about. Because of that I still am insistent on using probes just to keep track of where the brisket temp is at. As I cook more briskets I...

    Where to probe brisket?

    I was just wondering where people temperature probe their briskets? I'll sometimes run two, one in the point and one in the flat, but do you prefer to run them into the front and back of the brisket? Do you prefer to come in from the sides? Are there people who prefer putting them in at an...
