    MES Window Cleaning Made Easy

    Creosote...or lack thereof.  ;) Sure, fat content will have an impact too, but I think it's mostly creosote that's mucking up the window. Creosote is greatly reduced if not nonexistent using the AMNPS.

    does anyone use store bought rubs or spice or BBQ sauce???

    I have tons of store bought rubs sitting in my pantry....98% of them unopened. It's more fun making your own. So much Q...so little time. ;)

    Bear is using the AMNPS for smoke. Are you? If not, that is the difference.

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    Like Brian, I never close the vent unless the unit is not in operation. 100% open while in use, although I do use a 45* bend cast iron stack on top of it.

    WSM Mods

    Some people have done what is called the "notch mod". http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?35008-22-5-WSM-Upgrade-Kit-from-Cajun-Bandit&p=350136&viewfull=1#post350136 I see the benefits this may have, as the probe(s) can be inserted / lifted with the food. I'm totally tempted to try it, but I think...

    How I start and use my WSM....

    Hi Craig. With regards to your saucer. Was it just the plain, old untreated terra cotta or was it glazed? You've never had any problems with grease fires from the saucer? That seasoning looks awesome (like cast iron). I just got a new one from HD, and was considering using it exactly like...

    Chips, Chunks or Pellets?

    Camarillo, CA. Any place that claims to be a "butcher" are all just resellers of Harris Ranch meats. Either that or the Mexican carnicerias. There is (was) one called Laird's in Santa Paula, CA (about 20 mi away), but he too has just gone to selling Harris Ranch meats. He told me the regulatory...

    Chips, Chunks or Pellets?

    Just the opposite here...there are NO butcher shops around me at all. Plenty of sporting and hardware stores though. I'll gladly trade you. ;-)

    Chucky on Redneck Tie ECB...the final voyage.

    Just won the ebay auction. $245 shipped. Can't wait!!! http://goo.gl/yyPfE That's the stuff to get I hear. And yes, there is a Costco close and I'm a member. Must go check ASAP. That's a decent price for the blue. If my local Costco fails me then Sam's has 2x20# of KB for $17.98 thru March...

    Chucky on Redneck Tie ECB...the final voyage.

    Thanks all. Ya, I'm gonna miss the old fella, but I'm really excited about getting my mini. :) Just finished off the last of the chuck for lunch with the guys at work. I think it tastes better when your nasal cavities haven't been inundated with the smoke for hours on end. ;)

    Smoking brisket for easter, have a dilemma I need help with!

    Make sure you wrap the foiled brisket in towels, and also fill in the empty space in the cooler with towels. Then cover the cooler with a blanket. You'll be fine if you do that.

    How do you smoke your steaks?

    I've had really good results using my IR gasser. Put em on the warming rack until an IT of around 110*. I always use oak chips or pellets and I never use any other wood varieties for my single steaks. Oak tastes best on steaks IMO. Then hit them hard with a reverse sear

    Those look super good my friend!! I'm retiring (albeit reluctantly) the Redneck Tie ECB and getting a mini WSM.
