    4 - Turkey Thanksgiving Smoke!

    How big were those birds to start with Pops? Everyone was concerned with a bird over 20 on the forum. just curious. look great. I did my first one last week friday, but it was 20# so I spatchcocked it. LOVE them...plan on another one this weekend.

    Good deal on 24" Smoke Vaut

    simple answer is yes. You will probably go through more gas and struggle a bit to keep temps up where you want them, but unless you try you will not know. If you can put it out of the wind or any type of insulation it will help.

    Smoked round tip roast (I thought it was a tri tip at first). *Q View*

    if you are looking for a better wood to use for beef, hickory was mentioned, but for me oak is the go to wood. For me it is mild enough, yet has a nice flavor profile and I happen to have cords of it in my yard for free.

    Snow, I hope you know I was not trying to poke you too hard there.... tri tip? hum, I have to look that one up, not familiar with that term. I plan on 15# of canadian bacon tomorrow night along with some goose jerky. On Friday is a 17# ham that is brining, so those will be my true tests. I...

    purely just to tease, but that handle on the right side is upside down!!!! Looks great by the way. I had no nuts striped. That is odd. Best of luck this weekend, I am planning on a fattie this weekend, hopefully pics to follow.

    Nitro, will try to do that tonight. I know I measured it for possibly getting a AMNPS 18", but there is no way. A 12" works on either the right or the left side with a few inches to spare (? 15-16" depth) but to lay it along the the other way puts it too close to the burner or not near a vent. I...

    Well mine came last night as well. Box was a bit beat, no DENTS!!! Put it together with my son, my wife was actually excited, (she is never excited about my new purchases.....) I was then opening up the door to take it out and "season it" for the first time as I was told to in the instructions...

    Hello from Packer Nation

    Thanks Dutch, for starters, this will be easier to justify/hide!!! Real plan is to do a nice 4 x 4 x 8 smoke house, but for now I probably need to justify my using this for a bit before the other half agrees to something that "noticable" in the yard. I just hope it works like I want it too. I...

    Hello from Packer Nation

    Hey guys and gals, thanks for this great forum. I have found a ton of information that has been extremely helpful to me in the last few weeks. I started out wanting to make a nice pulled pork after a buddy of mine tempted and teased me with one after a duck hunt. ( I only had to wait 4 more...
