    Horizon parts

    They are always "running about 2 weeks behind" If that was really the case, everyone would have a Horizon smoker. They are a PIA to deal with.....meaning takes forever to get parts from them. If you squeak enough you'll eventually get it.

    First smoked beef roast, have a question

    I can't speak for the Lipton's, but if it were me, I'd used S,P,G and pull that baby at 130*. Slice thin and on a slicer if you have one

    60 degree difference upper to lower rack smoker

    Don't feel bad bro, I just got a Horizon side firebox, depending on the stage of the fire, I'll have a 100-200* swing from one end to the other. I don't have a baffle/convection plate. Without one I can't really use that end of the smoker. Those plates should come standard but no, if you you...

    Can someone help me out on Horizon's Convection plate....

    I want to fab their convection plate for my 20'' Horizon. Can anyone that has this plate give me the angle of the tail that kicks up and the hole sizes from one end to the other? I greatly appreciate any help you guys can give.

    Question on ABT's

    Hey fellas - I'm going to make some today (first time) and I'm going to use loose Italian sausage. Can I add the sausage UNCOOKED and will the smoking process be enough to cook it. Or should I brown the sausage first to be on the safe side? I would think it would be over cooked by the time I...

    New 20'' Horizon

    Picked me up a 20'' Horizon from Bass Pro and have it seasoning as I type this. Really looking forward to using this baby. I generally use my WSM but I find it to small lately especially for slabs of ribs. Using both racks is a pain because you have to take off the top to get to the bottom blah...

    How I start and use my WSM....

    This past weekend I did a 8.5lb pork butt and a 3.5lb brisket on my 18.5 WSM. First time using both racks. I put the brisket on the bottom rack. It finished in 11 hours, pork finished in 12. Temps averaged about 240. I did fill my water pan. I've only done a few briskets, but I thought this one...

    brisket injection

    Dave - Thanks for the explanation and it does make sense. So is there any harm in injecting meat the night before a smoke? For example, I just injected a pork shoulder and it will be in the fridge for 24 hours before it hits the smoker. So it will be quite some time before I can get it to 140*

    brisket injection

    I don't understand this logic? Its all being cooked regardless, why does it have to be 4 hours to 140*?

    Char-Griller Smokin Pro with firebox- Mods

    Hey guys,     I picked up a 3'' drier hose but my stack on the char-griller under the lid is flared. I can't get the hose on. How are guys getting the 3'' hose on assuming everyone else's is flared as well?

    reusing charcoal

    I find its a pain to relight. Seems to take FOREVER to get hot/burning. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
