BTW: I spent a bit of time reviewing the pellet smokers from Lone Star Grillz. They are manufactured in Conroe, TX. Pretty impressive list of features that align with my list of priorities although upgrading to stainless is a huge increase in final price. I'd have to definitely put more thought...
Unfortunate to hear that about LSG. What is it with companies that don't employ business saavy CSR's? If I were in the market, their 36" version checks just about every box I have on the list.
Couple of things regarding the Smokin' Bros. I noticed the upper rack is only 8" deep. There is no mention of a pellet dump feature. That would be an issue for me. Moisture over an extended time can decompose the pellets and when they in turn dry it becomes a concrete mess freezing the auger in...
Another approach for corn. We soak the ears in water for 30 minutes. Then onto the grill without pealing back any of the husk. Rotate one quarter turn very 5 minutes. Pull after 20-23 minutes. Let sit on counter for a few. While they are hot to handle, pealing is rewarding as all the silk...
Looks like you perfected your first try Norm. Looks great! We ate picanha on a regular basis when living in Brazil. Of all the cuts, this one is by far our favorite! I still grab one now and then to throw on the grill which is our preferred method. Fat cap always stays on. The Brazilians...
No rush on the list, my MAK is still doing its thing. Yeah, saw the larger plate and that will only require drilling 6 holes, so pretty easy. Which pit probe did you go with?
Learned that lesson the hard way with my 2 Star. Pellets decomposed then turned into concrete. In the end it required using sledge and destroying the motor/auger assembly to finally break loose and free it. MAK worked with me through all the possibilities to try prior to the final solution and...
It will come down to personal preference. Yes stick burners provide more smoke flavor over pellet smokers but IMO there comes a point where too much smoke can completely mask the natural flavor of the protein being cooked. This is why I settled with a pellet smoker. I still get great smoke that...
Great work Jeff. This proves there is a solution for all of us MAK owners. I take it the movable internal MAK therm probe won't work with the FireBoard, ergo your order of the RTD probe? So I understand, you simply cut off & discarded the Pellet Drive molex's, redressed them, crimped on new...
Assuming the Fireboard can run the flashfire igniter then isn't it just a matter of changing out the flashfire mini molex to match up with the larger connector from the Fireboard? This way any third party potential replacement igniter should most likely just plug right in. When MAK upgraded to...
Definitely following your progress Jeff. Sure wish I had the skills to mfg that fine looking alum plate. Nice job! Will be interested to see what you decide to do to connect the old (smaller) wire plugs to the Fireboard which I think have larger sized plugs.
