    A-Maze-N Pellet Smoker Review

    Hey guys, After the super long mail strike in canada my AMNPS has finally arrived! The little box that it came in is a beast! It looked pretty compact but it was a heavy one! Thanks Todd for making maximum usage of every volume inch of that box =) I didn't realize that Todd provided pellets...

    Smoking Over Night

    Thanks guys! I really thought that the mention of a gas grill will cause this thread to have no responses and have the entire forum shun me =)

    Smoking Over Night

    Hi guys, I have two grills  - Weber Genesis - Weber Performer My AMZNPS should be arriving soon now that the mail post service is resuming after a strike. If I am planning to smoke that would take a long time ( say a brisket or pulled pork ), I should be having consistent smoke throughout...

    Ribs Smokenator + 3 - 2 - 1 Method : Results = tough meat

    Perfect - that means that the dome temp will be approx 270 or so. Isn't that a lot higher than what is usually recommended of 225 or so?

    Ribs Smokenator + 3 - 2 - 1 Method : Results = tough meat

    Definitely removed the membrane - do that all the time. Sry missed that question =) I won't give up just yet =) - by the way, if I were to places the thermometer besides the ribs on the grill what temperature am I looking at? Most recipes call for 225 - 240F but this is on the dome where it is...

    Hey Todd!!! I love you man!!!

    If pellets hold up better during a hot smoke - can't current owners of AMNS just buy pellets and use them? I understand that its tested to 275F but will anything happen to the construction of the smoker if it is exposed to higher temps? i.e. will it warp?

    Ribs Smokenator + 3 - 2 - 1 Method : Results = tough meat

    So I checked out my thermometer and it seems to be registering the right temp when water is boiling so it should be pretty accurate. yeah the issue is that there is not much pullback on the ribs - I am kind of regretting buying a performer + Smokenator. Since I am awaiting delivery of the...

    Ribs Smokenator + 3 - 2 - 1 Method : Results = tough meat

    When I take a bit into the meat; it is still clinging on to the bone. I agree that the time spent should have been enough to make the ribs tender. I would say the entire rib was tough not just the sides.
