    smoking blanket

    i think it would survive 550 degrees - at least the foil part. the reflectix has a bubble wrap layer on the inside i think. that's made of plastic and would likely melt i'm guessing but i'm not sure. it kind of deformed in mine at 350 (the interior that is) but the general shape of the foil...

    smoking blanket

    late update, but year 2 - took Goat's idea above this year for the pellet smoker. Coldest Thanksgiving in years. Last year I did try a folded welder's blanket with some aluminum foil in between layers draped over the smoker. It worked ok - better than bare. I smoked a pork butt 2 days ago...

    Cabela's pellet smoker

    Cabela's pellet smoker

    Hi, I've only been smoking meats for about a year.  I previously had a Chargriller propane grill that I connected a side smoking box to smoke mostly ribs.  I had a terrible time trying to maintain temperature.  I tried running one gas burner super low while smoking chips in the side smoker to...
