    Bargain cart for the Smokin it #1

    I took a few more pictures to help show it better. I have to say that I use the smoker pretty much every weekend and this cart has worked out terrific. My wife is pretty smart! We attached it to the cart by screwing the wheels in below the top shelf and used a washer on the under side of the...

    Electric Smoker Help Needed

    There is just 2 in my house, so the model 1 is great. Check my last few posts and you will see pics of the last couple of smokes I did with it. I would say its sized well for a family of 4. It sounds like you need more room, so the model 2 or 3 would probably be better for you. They seem to...

    How long does a person expect a grill to last?

    Just for kicks, I got on the local Craigslist last night and searched for Webers. Saw several in all price ranges, but not one was even half of what it would go for new! Most needed nothing or just some basic easily available parts to get them up and running. Lets face it, a grill really is...

    How long does a person expect a grill to last?

    We bought a Weber Silver Genesis roughly 12 years ago. I keep it covered and the first 5 of those years were in New Hampshire. In that time I have replaced the diffusers 3 or 4 times (i should probably just break down and buy the stainless ones), and 2 Weber covers. Its a pretty basic model...

    Electric Smoker Help Needed

    Got to throw some praise at the Smokin it Model 1. Love mine. It works great, and looks an awful lot like the Smokin Tex that was linked above, just $300 is what I paid for it though. Check it out: http://www.smokin-it.com/Smoker_p/smkmdl1.htm

    Chuckie & Beans

    The money shots. Maybe a little dry. Pulled it when it got to 200 IT, after about 9 hours. Quite tasty though!

    Chuckie & Beans

    MossyMo's excellent thread got my mouth watering to try a chuck roast, so I went at it today. Got a nice 3 pound and hit it with SPOG (salt, pepper, onion, and garlic as I learned last week!). Spiced last night, then in the smoker around 9:30 this morning. Let it rip at 230 degrees until...
