    Do you use toppings on your chili?

    Fritos dippers here. I usually add jalapeño or habanero powder to my bowl to spice it up. I do like sour cream sometimes and cheese too.

    New Stuffer Conundrum

    Can you fit an actual 10 lbs into the waltons? I wish LEM made a 12# that would fit 10# into it. That is the main thing I dislike about the 5# is you can only fit about 4 into it and I make 5 # batches.

    Another @inkbird failure.

    fyi, that Therm Pro is not a Thermoworks product. Have to be careful on how things are named. Fireboard is another manufacturer that makes quality therms.

    Another @inkbird failure.

    I wish you luck. They offered me a discount on buying a new one when mine gave up just over a year old and only used about 4 times. It was a battery issue with mine. I decided to not waste anymore money on something they wont back up and go another route. I didnt like it either due to...

    My journey into the pellet world begins

    What is wrong with just using one brand? I have only been using lumberjack and they have many flavor combinations and make a great pellet in my opinion.

    I smoked two 20 lb turkeys last Thanksgiving on my Yoder 640s. I did not have any issues bringing up to temp in time or space. It is 1070 sq in. I wouldnt smoke them at 225° but if it can get to 300° you won't have any issues.

    Use small sticks. Think soda can diameter. Helps to warm the stick on top of firebox or next to coal bed. Could also take to extreme and use a burn barrel and shovel coals to the smoker.
