    Brick and mortar smoker and grill '16

    I bought a pallet of the firebrick from a local building supply store which brought the price down some.  On the smoker side, I installed them on their sides, which gave me around 50% more surface area.  I figured the firebrick didn't need to be 3" thick on the smoker side.  Here is the site I...

    My idea.... want yalls thoughts.

    Hey Jax,  It took a skilled mason/ hardscape friend about 3 weeks to build it.  A few days longer if you counted the time to lay the slab and let it cure.  At one point, I had the intention to do it myself, but after watching and helping someone that knew what they were doing, I'm not sure I (a...

    My idea.... want yalls thoughts.

    I researched and built what you are talking about.  Take a look at my thread.  Plans are attached.  The smoker works great and the grill has been getting plenty of use as well.  Some ribeyes are going on in an hour.  :-) Patch

    Planning new build - door seal methods

    I used Fireblack34 gasket tape for mine and it works well.  Got more than I needed for my 3'x3' and 2'x2 doors for offset smoker for $22 on eBay. Pictures of my build and a copy of the CAD drawing I worked with (friend is an architect) on my thread if it could be any help... Patch

    Do BBQ joints wrap their ribs?

    To me, it really depends on if you like your ribs with a crunchier bark and slightly dryer, which you will get if you don't wrap them in foil after 3 hours. I have smoked a lot of ribs over the last 3-4 years without wrapping them and they usually turned out fantastic (overcooked a couple).  I...

    1st Brisket

    I do agree that it should not take 11-12 hours to smoke a 6lb brisket.  I would test your temp probe and make sure it is accurate. A well smoked brisket should be very juicy and tender.... I do help with the juiciness by injecting beef broth throughout the meat after the rub and spray down with...
