    buying meat online

    Has anyone tried any of the online meat vendors in the UK? I've done a few smokes now and the meat from the butchers I've tried have a been a bit hit and miss (I can't find decent baby back ribs for starters!).

    Doing my first smoke this weekend

    Pretty happy at my first crack at this. The meat came out fantastic, and was well received by everyone that tried it. Had an epic stall at 160 degrees, stayed there for 4-5 hours before I finally decided to crank the heat up from 225-250 (temps in Fahrenheit sorry) where I had it, to 280...

    Doing my first smoke this weekend

    Where to buy 'A' style clip for temperature probe?

    Picking mine up tomorrow! [update] Yep, looks the same as yours and has the clip. Saves me trying to find one :)

    Where to buy 'A' style clip for temperature probe?
