    What kind of turkey breast do I want?

    As always, this forum knows how to smoke some food!!! The breast turned out awesome! I added a little Cure #1 and that really made it pop. It was quite the debate as to what was better, the fried or smoked. In the rush of getting things ready I didn't take any pics while sliced, but here it is...

    Kelvinator, may be in over my head

    Sorry for the lack of timely responses. I've made about a dozen smokes so far including two briskets and everything seems to be working just fine. The door seal in lava lock wool felt doubled up on the door and around the fridge. I feel some heat escape out of it and none on top of the smoker...

    Kelvinator, may be in over my head

    Well, finally got her about finished. I'm going to smoke some pork steaks today and see how it goes. I got it up to 300 yesterday for about 5 hours to test out the Auber and play with it on my phone. Took about a half hour to get to 225, and held the heat pretty well. Only warmth I could feel...

    Kelvinator, may be in over my head

    Hey guys! After getting pushed to the back of the barn for a couple years I am getting back to working on it. I got it painted today while I wait for parts to come. I scrounged around my garage and found some inch diameter pipe. Do you think one would be enough for some air intake?

    Hard to crank sausage stuffer

    My buddy and I are getting ready for our annual Sausage Fest but we have one recurring problem. We have your basic 5 lb LEM sausage stuffer with a crank handle and it is all we can to do to crank the thing, especially with the snack sticks. You can tell we are putting a lot of stress on the...

    St Paddy’s day at the sugar bush

    I took some homemade brats over to my folks sugar shack last weekend for lunch and cooked them over the fire, washed down with a couple snorts of syrup haha! Its always fun to hang out there. They put out anywhere from 150 to 200 taps.

    What's on the Menu for the Super Bowl?

    I was just coming on to start this thread haha! I'm planning on a pizza fatty or two, and maybe a rack or two of ribs, depending on how many are coming and if I have to work. Snow is in the forecast so I may have to plow. I have no dog in fight as far as the game is concerned, but I may or may...

    Kelvinator, may be in over my head

    Well, I got the easy parts done. Its all stripped down. I threw all the insulation out, it smelled a little musty. Im planning on pressure washing it all and go from there. Inside the cabinet between the tub and the cabinet is some black caulk, almost seems like tar and is very hard to scrape...

    Kelvinator, may be in over my head

    It this as easy as it looks, or am I missing something? I am not an electrician by any means. If I get this Brickman heating element.... and plug it into the back outlet of the Auber.... http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=14_28&products_id=381 which in turn is...

    Kelvinator, may be in over my head

    I found this Kelvinator on craigslist for cheap and bought it spur of the moment today. I've always been interested in building a smoker but have never really studied up on it. I am currently slogging through all the great info here and other places on the interwebs and my head is starting to...

    Getting ready. Have the wings in the rub, in the fridge and the ABT's (half with shredded cheese & half with pepperoni) wrapped and waiting to go. Weather is nasty out so time to relax until my Spartans whip the Wolverines in basketball at 1 and then head to my buddies with the smoker! Good...
