    Smokin-it 3 footprint

    I'm looking at this smoker and like the idea of setting on a craftsman toolchest. Question is, what is the outside dimensions of the feet? I have a 24" chest that is 24x13 on top. This is the next size down from the 27" that someone posted pictures of, but it looks like a fair bit of room left...

    LET'S TALK BRISKET!!

    The reason I haven't liked my briskets so far is because they DON'T fall apart when sliced. I finally got one the way I wanted by accident last night. "Done/Correct" to me is when it's sliced 1/4 thick, it flakes apart with a fork. If picked up horizontally with tongs, it would pull in half. You...

    Lost my beef roast rub recipe

    I thought I bookmarked it, but I guess I didn't. I think it was Chef Jimmy's but not sure. It had rosemary, that's the one thing that sticks out in my mind. Plus the basics, salt, cbp, onion, garlic, etc. maybe paprika, maybe cumin, maybe cayenne. I've searched for 3 hours now and can't find it...

    How is brown sugar measured in Q recipes?

    I don't really care for sweet + meat in any fashion, but figured I'd try a few and hope the sweet cooked out/off and adjust the recipe on later cooks as needed. For the search feature working "really good" I disagree. It works, but not well. I've spent more hours cruising search results than I...

    How is brown sugar measured in Q recipes?

    Tons of recipes calling for brown sugar. But I'm not used to brown sugar in anything except baking. Baking recipes are specifically called out as a PACKED cup, Tbsp, etc. Occasionally there will be a SIFTED measurement, but again always specified. So are these great sauce, rub and brine recipes...

    Wife wants smoked prime for Valentine's day.

    No one mentioned tying it up. I tie all my rib and rump roasts. Makes a more uniform cook and helps keep the juices in. here's a good how-to video.

    Filtering smoke - bubbling smoke through water?

    You could use a moonshiner's worm to cool the tubing from the outside. Make a copper coil and fit it in a bucket, then fill the bucket with ice water. It's going to make a pretty good mess inside the copper tube though. Make sure it's small enough you can get it in the sink or build an adapter...

    Issues with my Auber PID

    Can't speak on the controller. On the extension cord assuming perfect incoming 120v power, 50' #12 is as small as you can go and stay under 3% voltage loss. Additionally, I assume the controller is consuming a small bit of the power. Industrial controllers do. Meaning if fed 110v to controller...

    iCelcius wifi temp probe review

    Very little info available on this probe, so I made a video review. And a pic reading boiling water. This is my first temp probe, don't know if 2 deg low is typical or not.
