Fantastic Cook!
I have been wanting to smoke an entire pork belly for some burnt ends.
I’m loving your results and your twist for some zing and spice to it. Right down our lane!

If the smoker is under a cover pellets left in a hopper are a non-issue. I keep some in an old Igloo cooler under the smoker with a love cover and a small lidded trash can under the hopper. My cover is a long cover and it is all on a slab beyond my patio cover. Through it all I have need had my...
LumberJack are mostly preferred.
I have used B&B for years mostly for availability through a local Academy. Many load up on LumberJack from a local BBQ shop that carries them or a local dealer. Not as openly available but one of the very best 100% wood species unless it specifically indicates...
RIGHT!
There are a sundry of manufactures with drip pans with removable sections or slidenoff sections which has a somewhat direct sear capability from the firepot.
Already having Traeger’s and having owned three I was showing products available to convert almost any center firepot setup into...
I would think the finish over the charcoal tastes great too. I recently added a Napoleon Apollo 300 to the patio. I may try finishing over the charcoal the next round of reverse seated steaks.

The pics all FUBARed on my last post!!!
It is a stainless steal square that tappers down over the firepot. The lava rocks are included in Smoke Daddy Inc’s kit. You remove all the guts and utilize the factory grate. I prefer GrillGrates so I got a 19.25” 4 piece set so I do not have to use the...
@ross77 I actually have a drop-in direct sear station that will universally fit nearly any center pot pellet smoker! And I have a set of GrillGrates I use specifically for this purpose.
Not able to do a direct video upload and I do not load videos to tag here. I need to update my YouTube...
DAYUM!!!
Gentry’s BBQ - Beef Brigade is some wicked good rub! I had the idea of the lean and mean trim on one for an entire pan of burnt ends and WOW! This rub doesn’t disappoint. With all the hiccups I had with the rig I managed a successful cook. The lean mean SPICY beauty was dryer than we...
Oh Big Brother, I have taken a beating. My PID was having burn backs. I got a solution for that hiccup requiring mailing the controller back for a reglash. So the Traeger P-setting Pro controller was reinstalled. I was having wild swings from 140’s to 250’s and 2 flame outs. Finally got the nits...
This is the last piece of equipment my Bride and I have wanted as we assemble the kitchen Arsenal. That’s a ‘Fully Semi-Automatic Assault’ Slicer, right there! That size and setup looks ideal for what and how we would use one.
And the meat looks perfect. The spicy would be right up our alley...
Thank Ya, Thank Ya!!!
My PID kept having burn backs. Cleaned out 3 just today test firing everything. Thank Heavens I did. Turns out Dennis has a new flash available that is about 2 weeks old. A rash of the lower wattage augers have been having burn backs with the short pulse time in the U-18...
I absolutely Love It when you run entirely out of grill space and have to adapt, overcome and improvise a solution for your chamber ambient probe! HAHAHA...
The cook commenced at 1800CDT! Sorry for no updates as it went along. I did an aggressive trim on one with Gentry’s BBQ Beef Brigade Love...
First go at it actually. I’ll get around to the Pork Rub he sent me home with.
My buddies employee swore by the Gentry’s Beef Brigade and the 4 John Henry’s I came home with. He was telling me John Henry was actually POTUS 41’s Personal chef for a time.
We’ll see. I have 2 - 15# Prime packers...
My homie over at Premier Grilling was getting rid of their bullet inventory so I hopped on a Napoleon Apollo 3-in-1!
Got a lot of sealing to do. I am just so OCD about smoke exiting from any undesigned locations. I even have the Traeger sealed up like a drum.
I can see why you guys like these...
INDEED BROTHER!
The daughter-in-law’s folks already do stark competitions around the country! They’re grillers, we’re smokers and the two of the girls are rocking it ALL!
