    First time smoking Brisket!

    It looks good. I love brisket...I hope the prices on meat come down soon so I can do another one.

    New to smoking, question.

    You could either go with a Weber Kettle grill which can be used to smoke your meat or you could check other options. My first smoker years ago was a brinkman vertical charcoal smoker...I didn't much care for that one as it was difficult to keep the charcoal going due to ventilation issues I...

    thermopro vs inkbird

    I went ahead and ordered it from Amazon. It should be here Friday. I was tempted to get the Meater but the one I could afford didn't seem to do well staying connected more than a few feet away. My question on the IBT-4XS is if I am only cooking one type of meat like say a pork shoulder can I...

    thermopro vs inkbird

    thanks for the replies. I think I'll go with the IBT-4XS from Inkbird. It does look like you can see a graph of the temp as you cook so that will help monitor the stall. It doesn't save it but I just want to know as I'm cooking. I'm getting this for a new grill my wife bought me for fathers day...

    thermopro vs inkbird

    I'm looking at getting a new probe thermometer that will also moniter the smoker/ grill temp. I think I have narrowed it down between Inkbird and Thermopro. I still haven't decied on a stand alone type unit or a bluetooth. I saw that the Thermopro bluetooth units didn't get great reviews on...

    want to dehydrate hot peppers

    Has anyone dehydrated and smoked hot peppers in their MES? I am wanting to smoke some haberneros to use in a sauce for hot wings. I figure i may do them at the same time as I do some beef jerky.

    just some thoughts

    I remember a while back my wife was watching Food Network and Drive Ins, Diners, and Dives came on. I have to admit i like learning about the food joints they show. Guy Fieri gets on my nerves though. A lot of times he may ask these people that run these restaurants why they do somethings that...

    looking to do a mailbox mod

    I like that idea....i just took apart a rack thingie that we used to hand from the shower head...cut on the the racks off and used that as i didn't have anything else laying around. It stayed lit till i was done....i had about a 1/4 cup of pellets that i separated from the ones that were smoking.

    Crap I made out of old tanks recently

    Wow...those are cool. I would be afraid to know what those cost. Do you sell many of them? Looks good for someone wanting to go into competitions.
