    To continue beating the poor horse.......

    Sounds like a pellet smoker would be a good fit. Another option would be a gravity fed. With both you can get good smoke and high enough temp to cook chicken to get a crispy skin. The forced air will also get a nice bark on brisket, pork butts etc.

    I don't get the hate on Pellet Smokers.

    I don't think there is a perfect smoker. That is why I have several. A pellet smoker is hard to beat for convenience. If it gets someone into this world then it's a good thing.

    Feasibility of adding offset firebox to trailer cooker

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

    Sam's / Costco Boneless Hams

    Cure penetration is about 1/2" a day. Then add a day or two extra. For a bone-in ham you need to inject so you don't get spoilage around the bone. A thinner piece like a pork belly does not need injected.

    Pork Cakes?

    Interesting. I've warmed up pulled pork in a skillet many times for a bun or tacos. Never thought to do it patty style. Good way to get more crispy texture.

    Weekday Pork Butts

    I can see that. Fat cap on top and meat covered in juices probably equals no bark. I'll also usually make a big cut through most of the meat to get extra seasoning a surface area for bark. I watched a Blackie's BBQ video the other day and they split a pork butt in 4-5 pieces and smoke. To...

    Weekday Pork Butts

    I won't use the word tragedy, but certainly sad. Glad you're ready to try again after learning a few things. If I'm using my pellet smoker I'm a fat side down guy. Since the heat is from the bottom it protects the meat a bit. The fat will usually stick a bit, but that is better than the...

    Made in the USA (mostly, for now): a better grill scrubber

    $75 dollar grill scrubber that sold out because it is American made is what I read.

    Pork Ribs

    I'm usually underwhelmed when it come to BBQ places. I still always go there, but it usually does not live up to home cooked. There is a small local place here that makes great ribs Canyon Joe's.

    Propane Smoker in a Wood Enclosure/Smoke House

    Good idea to repurpose the box. Should help keep temps steady in the winter winds for sure. Where is the vent on the smoker? Not sure a chimney is a must, but smoke needs to escape somehow. Either a hole, chimney or removable roof? Put a hinge on the roof so you can open it a few inches for...

    Father’s Day plans?
