I checked out the tube...i'd like to go with longer smoke times, since I'm kind of lazy (hey, at least I admit it)...I think we will try the EFB idea and go with the AMNPS. We are also going to try the EFB with a chip pan that has some charcoal in it, along with chips. We'll see...half the fun...
Thanks for all the help! The brisket finished nicely...had to completely remove the lid for the chip pan and it smoked pretty good. We already have the tool box pulled off the shelf for the external fire box and are beginning to cut it...thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks! Will try removing the foil and using the stock cast iron top. S2K9K, interested in hearing or seeing more on your external fire box. We have discussed it, but haven't pulled the trigger yet.
Thanks again!
I'm smoking a few briskets today and having issues with my chip pan. I have a GOSM that I modded with temperature control for the gas. I am using the stock chip pan with a tin foil cover with 6 pencil sized holes poked in it. It is filled with a mix of mesquite chips and hickory chunk. After...
I agree, the 1 lb casings are perfect. They smoke a bit quicker and are the perfect size for a meal of summer sausage sandwiches or for a Packer party.
I think the second part took about 5-6 hours, but I don't have my notes in front of me. All in all it ended up being about a 12 hour smoke.
Thanks for the kudos! I am getting all ready to smoke again this weekend...going after some cheese and some jerky this time.
Meat Hunter - the insulation does a pretty good job, keeps the temps pretty stable, but not as much as I'd like. I was disapointed that I had to use the propane...
I also have used the grinder to make 5 to 20 lb. batches of sausage. As long as the meat doesn't get too warm, it works great. Good investment, easy to clean.
After the GOSM was modded into a sausage making machine, we smoked some Vension Summer...20 lbs to be exact. The Smoker performed like a champ!
Here's the details...sorry no Q-view of the prep...a beer in one hand and the stuffer handle in the other, no hands left to take pictures.
16 lbs...
Had some company over on Saturday night for dinner and decided to try my hand at a few fatties. So, here's the Q-view and the ingredients.
The ingredients for my augratin potato fatty...

I use a PID on my smoker. I have not had any issues smoking in bitter cold weather, other than my beer freezing...sorry, no issues with the PID. I also store it in the cold all winter in an unheated shed. It is a definate advantage once it's tuned in, it takes all the guess work out of...
Good news...tried dry sawdust, uncovered in a thin SS dog dish. I let the smoker get up to temp, then opened the door, put the pan in and within 5 minutes I had a good smoke going. It did get a bit out of hand, so I think I'll be wetting the sawdust the next time. Seems like it's going to...
