Hey, Earl. I'm sorry to hear about your bad Sunday. Do you think the TCV may have pressure problems with a low tank? I haven't had a problem with mine so far, but I also haven't done a long smoke. I'm still in the experimental stage with my TCV, and have only used it with a full tank. Are you...
Frisco Colorado, it's beautiful up here! June 23rd & 24th is the 13th annual BBQ Challenge with many famous teams competing. BBQ-Beer-Fun, and of course, the beautiful Rocky Mountains.
I've attended the last three BBQ events as a sampler and my hope is to participate as a challenger in the...
Hey Cheech, thats way cool. As you probably know, I've been working on a temperature control for my propane smoker. I'm also interested in an automatic temp control for my Bradley smoker.
It currently has a slide control which requires several minutes of adjusting the contro up & down to get...
Hey Larry, I have a Bradley electric smoker. The heat is generated by in infared element, and the smoke is produced by an automatic feed smoke generator. It's much different from my barrel or propane smoker, and like you, it also took me some time to learn. I use it mainly for smaller portions...
Earl, I know you checked out the Bradley forum and saw the installation of the unit on a custom made unit. The guy did a great job building his smoker but didn't do much with installing the TCV. Maybe he isn't finished. At any rate his testimonial for the TCV was positive. (I have a Bradley...
Grand Hall came through! They sent me a new chimney with temp gauge, water pan insulator that is suppose to extend the evaporation time to 6 hours, and a heat deflector to reduce the temp in the propane bottle area.
No questions asked, no cost.
I'm still working on mods to improve the smoke.
Hey bagger, I recently installed a TCV (Temperature Control Valve) on my propane smoker. The TCV is designed for turkey fryers but can be adapted to any propane cooking device. Basically it has a temperature sensor that is placed in the cooking chamber, and an adjustable valve that is installed...
The sensor wire/line is about 3' long with a small temperature sensor on the end. My installation was temporary to see how it worked. I plan to drill a small hole and insert it towards the top of the box.
I will post some Pix next weekend. I purchased a 3' gas hose and some brass fittings from...
Hey bradx, the range is from zero to 450 degrees. Turkey fryers should operate at 350 degrees.
I installed the unit yesterday and fired up the smoker (no meat, just the empty box) and set the temp at 200 degrees. It brought the smoker up 200 degrees and kept it there for 1 1/2 hours. I then set...
High-Tech Smoking.....I also plan to install a convection fan in my box smoker to keep even heat throughout the box. Also eliminates the need to rotate or move the meat around. I mainly use the box smoker for larger batches of meat (12 to 14 racks of back ribs) or multiple meats.
I'm not a...
Hey Brian, I live in a townhouse in Denver. One of the things I do is volunteer to grille or smoke for the annual get-togethers. Also, I often drop off some BBQ to my closest neighbors. The reason they complain is because they are missing out on the wonderful results of the great hickory smoke...
I received the unit today....looks pretty straight-foward. You can learn more from some guys on the forum at www.bradleysmoker.com who have adapted it to their smokers. I have a wood burning barrell smoker for those days I can spend a casual day of smoking, but there many weekends that I want to...
Hi, Jim....I'm live in Denver (actually Thornton), own a business in Aurora. Love it here! Also some great smoke competitions in the mountains around Frisco.
