    Smoking boston butt over night

    Have you tried to use a couple large chunks of wood instead of chips. The smoke should last longer. Or maybe one of the sawdust tubes/trays?

    Recommendations for a dedicated spice grinder?

    Push comes to shove, a good mortar and pestle work well. Besides the grinder we have, my wife uses a m&p on occasion. Good exercise.

    Not bad for $5

    "Seen some videos recently on the VEVOR brand. Chinese but the reviews are mostly positive. Any feedback on the brand?" I doubt you will find anything dealing with meat processing short of commercial units in a packing house that is not made in China. I would pay attention to warranty; the...

    Chef's Choice meat slicer modification....

    You might be able to fashion the deflector from a piece of aluminum and a couple of flattened out nails held to the aluminum with JB Weld. Just a thought. Their support was supposed to get back to me on a replacement gear hub for my 665. Their support said they would get back to me. Several...

    Smokin Tex Feedback needed

    The ST smokers are analog. You can expect to see temps fluctuate 15/20 degrees high and low of your set temp due to power being sent and stopped to the element. This is perfectly normal. It will over shoot and stop heating and then at a low temp point start heating again. Sometimes more...

    Smokin Tex Feedback needed

    SmokinTex (ST) has been around for years as has CookShack and SmokinIt. All solid smokers. ST has not embraced the electronic PID technology preferring to keep it simple (I guess). ST used to have a forum which was quite popular. I don't know why they stopped the forum. Several owners have...

    Electric suggestion?

    There are three all stainless steel models. All are expensive but reliable. Smokin-it, CookShack, and SmokinTex. I have a Smokin-it and Cookshack. Utterly reliable. No problems or iffiness. Just solid performance. I have no experience with SmokinTex but they have been around for many years.
