    ADVICE: Need a new grill - Weber vs. Char-Griller

    Cliff, Maybe my post came off more negative than I intended.  I did say that I would recommend it though in my defense if he primarily wants a smoker.  You are right, all of the mods i have completed are intended for temperature regulation.  I believe that most people would agree that this is...

    ADVICE: Need a new grill - Weber vs. Char-Griller

    I have had my Chargriller for a little over a year now.  I bought it thinking I could smoke/grill with the same equipment.  The main chamber needs quite a few mods to use effectively as a smoker that need to be reversed if you are going to use it as a grill.  It isn't the end of the world, but...

    Ham Conversion

    I am getting a little hungry now.  I wish that the little guy was not frozen or I would start tonight.  It is thawing now, so maybe tomorrow I can throw it on.  I can't wait to taste to goodness.

    Man that does sound good...... I will do both.  Do you rub like normal just with less salt?  Any issues with dryness?

    So sick of snow...

    Plenty of snow here is Illinois too...  I think it is supposed to warm up for Easter weekend, so I am cautiously optomistic.  Maybe if we all fire up the smokers this weekend we can raise the temp up a little this weekend.  At least everything will smell better.

    Ham Conversion

    I am just glad there is not a lot of pressure from the family for this to turn out well.  I have thoroughly explained that this is completely experimental.  I need to unthaw one of them tonight so that I can see how salty their cure is.  I may need to soak it to try and get some salt out.

    Ham Conversion

    I recently bought a half hog and just got it home this weekend.  I have two 8lb hams that are already cured.  I really dont like traditional holiday style hams and would like to change it up a  little bit.  Any ideas would be great.  The only thing I have thought of so far is to smoke it up to...

    Local Cow Missing Brisket

    I bought a side of beef from a local butcher. Everything was great except for one little (ok large to me) detail, my brisket accidently was turned to burger.  I thought about it for several hours, and finally gave him a call.  Apparently when my order was taken they forgot to write it down...

    Chuck Roast

    Thanks all for your advice... I cooked my roast up last night.  This was my favorite thing I have smoked so far.  Half of it I sliced and the other half I cooked longer and pulled.  The flavor is unbelievably good.  I have been snacking on the sliced chucky like it is a meat dessert.  I am going...

    Chuck Roast

    I bought a chuck roast from the store yesterday on sale.  This is the first time I have ever attempted a chucky.  I am thinking about making shredded tacos.  Anyone have any input or a good recipe for one of these little guys?

    Char-Griller Smokin Pro 830 with side firebox

    I have had my smokin pro for about 1 month now.  I have done the chimney extension to grate level.  My question is this.... Do I need to remove it if I am going to use it as a regular charcoal grill?  Just wondering if anyone knew what temp that the foil would start to burn.  I would just use...
