    Anyone here ever spin a whole pig/piglet?

    It's been 20 years since I did one. About 100 lbs. Filled cavity with apples and onions, sowed shut, wrapped whole thing in chicken wire. We made a cover of aluminum foil to get it to cook a little faster. Everybody loved them. Good luck.

    where did the smoke go??

    S. O, yes this wood is real dry. Must have had it in the barn for at least 10 years. I cleaned out the hopper yesterday and found no wood, just lump. Thought I had added enough wood. Will make sure I start the next long cook with fresh lump and more wood. Thanks

    where did the smoke go??

    Jim, That's why I bought the Master Built, wanted more smoke generated by wood. Mike, the wood is oak splits bought from a restaurant suppler. I cut it into smaller pieces and put in the hopper and the ash bin. Have the LLS mode for the bin.

    where did the smoke go??

    Did my first brisket on my MB 900 Fri. night. Started the 900 at 7:30 pm, plenty of smoke rolling. Put brisket in when temp. of 225 was reached. Checked about 11PM and smoke still there but had slowed down some. At about 1:00 am very little smoke coming out ant brisket has almost no bark...

    Foil boat brisket

    Decided not to try that on this smoke. Maybe next time if I can get some more feed back.

    Foil boat brisket

    Have not done a brisket in a long time so started looking for the latest and greatest way to smoke a brisket. FOIL BOAT! Sounds very interesting. Anybody have thoughts on this process of smoking a brisket? Thinking it would be almost impossible to dry it out.

    Fan not working

    My bad. Did not have the wires hooked up properly. I'm blaming it on the 100 degree weather

Looked at recent reviews of Covers All and I am not sure I want to buy from them again. Looks like nothing but problems with them. Anybody bought from them...
