    Who owns a SmokinTex?

    I am on my second smomin tex smoker. I used the first for 7 years, then a friend offered to buy it from me and I seized the opportunity to go bigger! I've not smoked much (any) sausage. But I can speak to the smoke and flavor. How much wood are you using? I wouldn't use more than a couple of...

    PGSmoker's Best Damn Sauce Ever (BDSE)

    The first time I made your BDSE, I had trouble using MM, so I substituted.  The more I read your discussion, and think about it, it comes down to this:  To make a world-class recipe, you must use world-class ingredients.  Just like the lemon juice.  You stress to use fresh, not juice from a...

    PGSmoker's Best Damn Sauce Ever (BDSE)

    Everyone I served this sauce to instantly noted the lemon and citrus - and raved about it.  I wouldn't say the zest was critical, but to me, it is essential ;) Great recipe. Thank you, Bill, for sharing.

    SmokinTex 1400 owners out there?? Help me get TBS.

    Sarge - (Not calling you old out of respect ;) ) I think your unit is working as designed. Everything looks fine. The best thing to do, at this point, is to throw a butt or some ribs in your smoker and call me for dinner! NOT a driller

    Not a bad idea, Sarge.  And a helluva lot cheaper ;) Lemmee know how this works for you.  I'm like you, though.  I'm not smoking for fun, so dinner better be in the box! Which reminds me, I have a pork shoulder just begging to be smoked....... Y'all enjoy your weekend.

    I completely agree, Chef Willie.  I too might kill myself if I drilled into my smoker.... There is no reason you should not be able to smoke a pork butt or brisket to completion (internal temp of around 200)  and not get rave reviews WITHOUT drilling or adding a special do-hickey. I understand...

    PGSmoker's Best Damn Sauce Ever (BDSE)

    Thanks for the update, Bill.  Duly noted!  Below is the one I used.  Of course, now I need to make it again, "for comparison sake" 3 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper 2 tablespoons table salt 1 tablespoon granulated white sugar 1 tablespoon onion powder 2 teaspoons mustard powder 2...

    I added a rub from Amazingribs.com called Big, Bad, Beef rub.  I'm certainly interested in a rub you added.

    Clarissa, I second that motion about Scott and the support from SmokinTex.  Best customer service ever experienced, bar none. No product is perfect.  But it's the way you are treated when a question comes up or a problem occurs, that is what really matters.

    Bill, I smoked a brisket, complimented nicely by your BDSE! Incredible complexity in a homemade sauce!  At first taste, my guests commented on the fresh lemon.  Then the spice kicked in, Bam!  Everyone commented on how great the sauce was.  Thank you for sharing.  Trying your other sauce later.

    Plug your extra holes, that should resolve the temp swing issues. The SmokinTex was not designed nor engineered for the extra air flow. As for pork shoulder roasts (butts). Set your smoker for 225, use a digital temp probe, smoke to an internal temp of 195 - 200. Pull and let the meat rest at...

    Thanks, Chef Willie, Completely the real deal.  I do the neighborhood a service, by picking up fallen branches, and get free wood for the smoker to boot.  Win/Win! As for the wife, I have been married long enough to know who's boss.... LOL!
