id just use a pellet tube and mix real wood chips in it. the gas could control the heat and be hands free for hours.

Cook on ... Hopefully you fired back up right away ? To bad you didn't have a pellet tube going ... Woulda got the extra smoke time...

Yep I fully agree with the searing. Assuming you already have a typical gas grill, you will get a much better sear with that. So yep, I typically do a reverse sear for steak, tri tip etc. Searing is really my only negative. If you are looking for more smoke flavor, you can buy a smoke tube...

This looks amazing! What seasoning did you put on it in that first picture?

@KonaRich the only thing you'll accomplish using a PID this way is turning your MES off after the temp set on the PID is reached. It would be no different than simply unplugging your smoker and then plugging it back in. Then you'll need to turn the MES back on at the control panel,reset the...

I agree with what everyone says. The thing I like about overnight cooks is it's great to do a long cook while you sleep and it's true that pellet smokers need all the time they can to get smoke flavor. My recteq has been amazing so if you are in the market to upgrade your smoker, I def...

Welcome to the forum, be sure to post up your cooks, we love pictures. I run a Yoder ys640 as well as a Grilla Mammoth. I’m not super picky on pellets but I do like pecan when I can get them with a mix of cherry builds nice flavor and great color. In the Mammoth I run a smoke tube filled with...

Nice. A a tray filled with pellet dust is what I use to keep temps low. Other's use a pellet tube as another option for you. Good call using bigger chunks next time. Smoked cheese is so good, you need more!

Hey everyone, Just stumbled across the forum today and realized a self-introduction is the first order of business to get rolling! I'm based out of the North Shore area in Massachusetts and am looking forward to scoping out the boards once I get set up here. Over the years, I’ve put together a...

be making that cobbler for sure. i love it but never made my own. lookout waste band. lol chips in the pellet tube is a trick i havent tried yet. what would you say your ratio is to burn good. putting chips in there mite make the tube viable for stuff other than cheese smoking. not a...

You could also use a pellet smoke tube. A-MAZE-N is the official name brand, but there are others.

You’ll still have to mod a Big Chief to control temps. You plug it in and the heating element stays on until you unplug it. It doesn’t cycle I started playing with an electric burner and a simple temp controller (not PID) but haven’t gotten very far. I will use a pellet tube to generate smoke

Hi there and welcome. Yeah @normanaj is completely correct! The PID would be cutting power Off to the entire MES. That means no power to the controller and heating element so it is effectively unplugging the MES. Then when it turns power back on, I believe the MES is no longer set to be "on"...

I have found that with my pellet smoker opening it doesn't really add much time, the burner kicks on and back to temp in nothing flat, that's not how wood burners work as it can't ramp up or down easily or quickly. It's rare I wrap as it's tough to build smoke flavor without spritzing or a tube...

I've got an a-maze-n tube that I use to supplement smoke in my pellet cooker. But it is far too small for this cooker. I can easily fit a 100 lb. whole hog split on this cooker, so it's a large chamber.

Hey just a thought but duck thighs and legs are made for slow cooking…. Ie I think a tin pan with some duck layered out then 225 till it is fall off the bone….a smoked version/variation of confit. That would be perfect for salads and pasta dishes

WARNING: ENABLER ALERT I "smoked" with my gasser and a tube and while it works it's no where is good as my Smokefire. There's a legit fire or "combustion" smell and flavor of stuff cooked on it. It walks all over the MES for "hot" smoked stuff like brisket/ribs/chicken. Holds temps WAAAY...

You will enjoy the convenience of the pellet pooper. I use mine more than the stick burner. If you want more smoke flavor can add a pellet tube. Make sure to regularly clean it out to avoid a fire. I like the lumber jack pellets. My fav is the apple but also use the cherry blend and...

My pellet grill will go down as low as 160°. That said, I usually run just a pellet tube inside when smoking sausage. I just smoke for color and poach in sous vide to finish. If just the tube isn't getting me the color I want, I will fire up the pellet grill at 160° and run until I like the...

Hey congrats on your new cooker. As already stated it's totally a personal preference. You'll get it dialed in to your liking. When I first got my pellet cooker I played with so many things and tried different tricks. I'm a firm believer pellets can make a big difference. I used to use a smoke...
