    Insulating a Propane Smoker

    I have the same set up and have for a few years.  Easy to put together and just gets jammed in a corner when no needed.  The product give s a temp at 180deg.  THis is when you will begin to have off gassing fro the plastic, but may be much lower than ignition.  I find it to be an acceptable...

    Offset Concrete Block Hog Smoker

    I feel like I've neglected this post, but thanks for all the great comments and praise.  I think I am going to have to do a labor day hog now just for the heck of it.  @Cityofvoltz - I agree.  No problem at all with the blocks splitting, especially since I have a few bricks in between the wood...

    Igrill

    I really wouldn't recommend this at all.  The accuracy and range is fine, but it's more of a problem with the app.  THe app shuts off every time that you go to another applicaiton (say you want to play music while you are cooking or look up a recipe).  Most of the cool features like the temp...

    Offset Concrete Block Hog Smoker

    So I accomplished my mission here. THanks for all the help form everyone. I truly couldn't have done it without you. Sorry it took so long to update this, but I ran off to Mexico right after the BBQ (that's one way to avoid negative crticism). I took your advice and installed a 5" vent pipe. I...

    Offset Concrete Block Hog Smoker

    Jack:  Love the idea of the stucco on top.  Completely understood the plastic cover.  I was actually looking at the fiberglass rope to get a better seal, but it is extremely expensive.  This would definitely smooth out any small variations.  I have tons of wood and will use your suggestion about...
