    Converting old freezer in pellet smoker

    I built one too. I also installed a GMG WiFi PID controller. I never miss a NASCAR race now! Check out my thread: https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/members-mountain-hybrid.284614/ :)

    General Electric Smoker Build

    I actually have a Masterbuilt that I installed a PID on. Works awesome. I also have that smoker attachment and haven't tried pellets yet, but, sure will now! My big smoker is 240v with an 1800w oven element. I couldn't find any elements above 1000w for 120v. 1750w would run close to 15 amps...

    First question about fridge build

    Auctions are a good place to find old fridges. Even a lot of older ones still have plastic in the doors. I removed the door plastic and installed some 24 gauge sheet metal. was fairly easy. A little time consuming, but not terrible....

    First build

    I installed a PID in my Masterbuilt. There are tons out there. You can get cheap ones that you wire up yourself for less than $40. All they are is a controller, themal sensor and a relay. Most will do 240v. I have a an old refrigerator smoker too that has an 1800 watt/240v element. Years ago I...

    Snack stick help

    I guess I’ve never tried the HM products. They’re prolly fine. Thing is the kits are expensive compared to buying spices and casings. I want to irritate getting the sticks cooled after the cook. 80-120 degrees is the critical temperatures. Listeria can grow in that temp range. Thus the reason...

    Snack stick help

    Hello, I’ve been making pepper sticks, salami, brats, you name it for 25 years. I even did it commercially for 5 years. Recipes are all over the internet. For the snack stick casing, I use 21mm mohagany collagen that I buy from either Sausage Maker or Midwestern Research. I grind 40-50% pork...

    Trying to decide on which pellet grill

    I’ve had a Pit Boss for 4 years now. Menards had a floor model clearance that was $400 at that time retail was $600. Now this grill is 400 retail. I’ve had great luck with it especially after adding a PID from smoke daddy. I’ve also experimented with the GMG WiFi controller which can be used on...
