    Not much smoke in Dyna-Glo smoker

    Noob here, just got a Dyna-Glo propane smoker. Not much smoke, I've tried chunks, chips, soaking and not much smoke. The wood kinda turns to charcoal. HELP! :unsure:

    Smoked some chicken breasts for New Years

    I think it was some hickory that I bought at Lowes.  I just trimmed up an apple tree on my property and saved a bunch for smoking.  Looking forward to trying that.

    Smoked some chicken breasts for New Years

    I brined them for about 3hrs in a solution of 1/2 cup Kosher salt & 1/2 cup brown sugar.  Next time I think I'll cut the salt by 1/2.  I just used an off-the-shelf poultry seasoning from Lowe's http://www.lowes.com/pd_608910-49368-OW85185_0__?productId=50330209 Then placed the bacon over the...

    Smoked some chicken breasts for New Years

    They took longer than I expected, maybe I should have used 250 instead of 220?

    Just smoked my first whole turkey, very pleased with the results

    No, we're going away for Christmas, next time I will probably opt for a little smaller bird.

    Just smoked my first whole turkey, very pleased with the results

    I'm still a noob, but I'm very pleased with the results of the 17lb turkey I just smoked.  I had it in a brine for 24 hours and injected it before smoking.  Nothing too fancy, but boy was it good!  Very moist & tender.  Took just under 9hrs running at around 230 degrees.
