    Just a half slab babyback test (PBC)

    I probe chicken/tri-tip/butt etc. just not the ribs as there are several ways of checking for doneness. But we all know this. I guess I have a good eye for some things. ;)

    Just a half slab babyback test (PBC)

    I honestly don't bother to read temps in this thing so I couldn't tell ya. Can't complain one bit about the results though. The only reasons I do half slabs is that I never have enough room in my freezer. And a full slab of ribs won't fit in my VacMaster 210. I rarely buy ribs to cook the same...

    Just a half slab babyback test (PBC)

    Haven't had the PBC for very long but I've been getting the hang of it. Last batch of babybacks I did came out dry. My fault as I lost track of time. But today was a different story. 1.5 hours then sauced for 30 minutes is perfect for a half slab. I don't like fall off the bone when...

    Used cookshack vs new smokin it

    Definitely a new SI.

    It's just a single probe thermometer. I use one for my electric Smokin-it #2 to monitor meat temps. If you're wanting to monitor smoker temps, you'll need another thermometer.

    Best smoker for the money

    I have an electric Smokin-it #2 and am going to add a charcoal smoker eventually and am in the same boat as you. Leaning more towards the Pit Barrel, since I'd use my electric for longer smokes anyways (pork butts/brisket etc). Good luck in your decision! Let us know what you eventually choose!

    Smokin It 3. Christmas for me.

    I would also check the smokin-it forums themselves. There's a link on their homepage. Good luck!

    Thinking of trading my WSM for an electric smoker

    I'm going to give a nod to the Smokin-it smokers. They have several sizes to choose from so you'll definitely find one that suits your needs. I would go with the standard analog controller since it will pick up where it left off in the event of a power failure whereas their new digital models...

    Smoke scrubber

    Just invite your neighbors over for mealtime once in awhile. I doubt they'd complain then. ;)

    Smokin It 3. Christmas for me.

    Good choice! I have had my #2 for a few months and it's served me very well. I wouldn't worry about the new digital models. If there's a power outage while you're away, it'll just reset itself and you're SOL. With the analog, it'll pick up where it left off. Envious of your #3 but I only cook...

    Who cleans their smoker?

    When I have used my SI2 enough, I'll just scrape the inside ceiling with a plastic scraper. Run the rack rails through the dishwasher too. Always clean my grates after a cook.
