    Storage

    Thank you for all of the positive thoughts, it is very much appreciated. Well, I did a five pound batch or so, I actually used the High Mountain Cajun, instead of going with something I just concoct. It came out excellent. I then vacuum sealed most of it and mailed it off a couple weeks ago...

    More Temp Problems with the Smoke Hollow

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Regarding the door, the seal is not that good so I am sure there is some leakage and air getting in there. There is venting on the burner housing at the bottom of the unit however it is not adjustable. I was not able to regulate the temperature one its first...

    stuffed chicken breast

    good job Teacup. I have to admit at this point I have more success doing indiret charcoal/smoke cooking with my horizontal. For instance I did a small pork roast this weekend on it, rubbed with honey mustard and pepper. The girlfriend said it was the best pork she ever had. It was tender...

    Dutch's Smoked Shredded Beef Enchiladas

    I highly recommend this recipe. The enchildas were awesome. I used a three pound chuck, only peppered it, smoked with Cherry to 160* i think, sprayed with Apple-grape juice and 100 proof so-co. I foiled it and finished it to 195* in oven because I am having temp problems with my Smoke Hollow...

    Smoking meat, apartments, and laws

    It seems reasonable that grilling on a deck could be illegal. I have done it many times with no problems though. As for the electric smoker and grilling for that matter, I would suggest maybe stopping down at the fire department and seeing if you can get some answers or atleast pointed in the...

    More Temp Problems with the Smoke Hollow

    The vent is on the back of the unit, at the top. It also has a stop on it so that it cannot be closed all of the way. I tried with it open and closed to its fullest point. Neither option, along with manipulating the propane valve worked to get the temp consistent in the 250* area. I am using...

    More Temp Problems with the Smoke Hollow

    Hello everyone: I have used my Smoke Hollow about four times since getting it for Christmas. I have been reading the posts about temp problems with these units. Yesterday was my first warm weather smoke where we had temps in high 60's in Buffalo. I did a Chuck and two fattys. My door...

    Smoke Hollow

    I too have a Smoke Hollow. My Temp gauge is way off meaning the unit runs hotter than it says it does. Also, even at its lowest setting I cannot get it down to an acceptable temp. I turn the valve almost off on the LP tank. This helped. For seasoning, I just ran the smoker til it did not...
