    Daredevil Evel Knievel dies at 69

    Bummer......He was a hero to many of us. On the bright side, I saw him speaking on a show giving his testimony on how he had recently became a Christian. Maybe he will finally make that Grand Canyon jump!!!

    Creosote problem?

    In an effort to be safer, I had screwed an elbow into the end of the burner and ran a 12 inch piece of pipe out the bottom of the smoker. I then screwed on another elbow and hooked the line that came with the burner on there. I was trying to keep the original rubber line out of the smoker...

    Creosote problem?

    SmokyOkie, I don't have access to natural gas, and all the literature says it is a propane burner. It was just a turkey fryer kit I bought at Wal-Mart.

    Creosote problem?

    So the reason my mixture adjuster doesn't change the flame, nor does opening the door change it, is because the burner is now too sooty? Makes sense I guess. I will put the burner on the outside somehow, clean everything as best I can and start over. THANKS everyone!!!!

    Creosote problem?

    My homemade smoker is basically a huge steel cabinet that I set a turkey fryer in. I put a cast iron skillet over the burner and set a coffee can in the skillet to burn wood chunks or chips. The flame I get is orange and comes up clear around the skillet, and the skillet gets black stuff all...

    Instead of a smoke pistol.....

    The pictures show the air going into the bottom, but one has the outlet on top, while the other is on the bottom. I am wondering what the difference is?

    Instead of a smoke pistol.....

    I tried a smoke pistol for the first time last weekend. I could not get it to work like I thought it should. It stinks having to open the door every 5 minutes to see if it's working, especially when it isn't! The aquarium pump thing is interesting though......I was thinking about some way to...

    What's the strangest thing you have smoked?

    I tried to smoke turkey gizzards. They were very tough. I thought low and slow would tenderize them some, but they were like shoe leather!

    I Knew It!!!!!! HELP!!

    Well, we had some leftovers and everything went OK. I went and bought another brisket and some ribs to try again tomorrow. I'm glad now that I threw it away, it aint' worth people getting sick. Reading that thread on other people's problems really cheered me up! (is that wrong?) Thanks...

    I Knew It!!!!!! HELP!!

    Well, I tossed the meat. Man that was hard. That SmokyOkie brisket sure smelled good. It seems everyone else has such good luck most of the time, while I struggle most of the time. I need to hear some horror stories from other people. Surely someone has a hard luck smoking experience?

    I Knew It!!!!!! HELP!!

    I figured that was going to be the answer. Very tough to do. Did I mention it was a SmokyOkie brisket? Okay...Okay...I'll (gulp) toss it.

    I Knew It!!!!!! HELP!!

    When I finally gave up on getting an electric burner on my homemade smoker and went to propane, one of my fears was that I would run out of propane at the worst possible moment. Well, it has happened. I left the smoker last night for 6 hours and when I went out this morning it had shut off. I...

    My First ABT's

    I've never eaten banana peppers, are they hot?

    My First ABT's

    WOW!!! A little hot for me, but my Dad loved them! I loved the taste, but I am not used to the heat. I made a holder out of one of those disposable pie tins, and it worked pretty good. I stuffed them with leftover brisket and chedder cheese, with bacon over the top. I didn't take a picture of...
