Disappointed and need help
I am using the digital thermometer that is on the unit and the probe thermometer that is also on the unit. So getting to an inside temp of 165 in 12 hours at 225 is not normal? Maybe I will have to check the thermometers. -
Disappointed and need help
Thanks for all your help. I finally got the inside temp to 165, but that was at 11:30pm - 12 hours after I started it. I took it out of the smoke and wrapped it in foil and went to bed. I pulled it this morning, but it was dry and I only ended up with enough pork for about 4 sandwiches. I... -

So I waited until the inside temp was 165. It had been smoking for 12 hours!! The result was not too Smokey which I liked, but very dry. I wrapped it in foil and went to bed. This morning, I pulled what I could and probably have enough for 3 good sized sandwiches. :-( plus I have to... -

So this piece of Pork has been in for 7 hours and the inside temp is still only 144 degrees. Should I put foil on it or keep waiting? I am guessing that I should think of doing the burgers for dinner tonight! -

It is 3.5lb so not too big. I just checked it and it is at 135 inside temp and looking quite good. Yeah, I put it on at about 11am at 225. -

Thanks for the info. So today, I am trying again. Pork picnic roast, bone in. I set it for 225 put a rub on it. I used applewood chips 1/4 cup. Once it started smoking I got thick grey smoke, it has turned thinner now. Now I am worried that I have already ruined this pork!! It smells... -

OK, so this morning I am trying again. I have a pork picnic roast with bone in. I put a rub on it. Set the smoker for 225 degrees and for 10 hours. I am using applewood chips today. It has been in for 30 mins and I have thick grey smoke and not thin blue smoke!! It has thinned out a... -
Disappointed and need help
Well, I will perservere and hopefully will end up with something that I can feed to my boyfriend and family on Saturday without going for takeout!! It is frustrating as I know I can cook - I do a mean beef tenderloin on the bbq that will melt in your mouth, but this has defeated me!! I will... -
Disappointed and need help
LOL I did shower and brushed my teeth!!! I am going to try again on Saturday with a mild wood chip as you suggested above. I will have all day to play with it. Hopefully I will be able to serve it for dinner rather than have it packaged up in the fridge with the others ready to feed the... -
Disappointed and need help
I used hickory chips last night. 1/4 cup to start and then added a handful at a time through the chute when I couldn't see smoke. The smoke I was getting was thin white smoke, but it was night time so it could have been blue!!! It smelt smokey enough!! So what you are saying is that I should... -
