    Rain soaked wood?

    Woke up to a rain shower this morning and realized my wood pile was outside uncovered (except for some thin pine trees). Will there be any issues using this wood after it dries out again?

    Select grade brisket?

    Brisket in my area isn’t available at every grocery store, some have choice, others only carry select. Is it worth the time to cook a select brisket or should I just go ahead and stick to choice or prime? I’ve only cooked a couple in my time, is it good to start with select and go up to choice...

    Ribs and turkey at the same time?

    Took the brisket off at 200 IT and let rest, had to use foil to wrap and made the mistake of leaving it wrapped while it rested. Still tender but a little on the dry side, not terrible though. Ribs went about an hour longer than the brisket, resting those now as well. Fingers crossed for some...

    Ribs and turkey at the same time?

    Sliced the turkey, a little too tender so I had to slice thick. Flavor is incredible though, never eating store cooked turkey again, haha.

    Ribs and turkey at the same time?

    Pulled the turkey off after 2 hrs, it was reading 158 so I wrapped it in foil to finish it out. Wrapped the brisket after 2 hrs as well, reading 165, figured it had enough smoke being so small.

    Ribs and turkey at the same time?

    Just got everything on, I decided to do a small brisket flat as well since the turkey breast was only about 3lbs.

    OK Joe Highland-Cannot get temp up

    I have a highland as well with similar mods. I start it with about 12-15 briquets along with wood kindling and 2 8ish inch long sticks about 4 inches in diameter. Once the charcoal has heated up I run with the door cracked about 3 inches and the stack wide open. Depending on the size sticks I...

    Ribs and turkey at the same time?

    Thanks guys. I plan to use my probe in the turkey since the window is much smaller with poultry. I’ll be sure to post pics Friday.

    Ribs and turkey at the same time?

    Gonna smoke some ribs on my OK Joe Highland this Friday but I only got 2 racks and I want to make good use of the smoker on my first try (the fire is hot, might as well get good use out of it). Is it a good idea to throw a turkey breast on at the same time the ribs are going? Not sure if it’d be...

    Stick burner in SC

    Cheated a little today, started with some kindling and charcoal for a base. It cut the coal time by about an hour or more. After I got the nice bed going, I realized my splits were way too big as one would bring the temp from 240 to 340, and that was after I shut the damper and stack a couple...

    Stick burner in SC

    Thanks! So far I’ve added an elbow to the inside of smoke stack that extends it to just above the grill surface and plan to get a new thermometer, firebox baffle and lavalock sealer for the doors. Are there any mods I’m missing?

    Stick burner in SC

    just purchased an OK Joe’s Highland in an effort to create consistent results with the smoker’s “white whale” of brisket. Seasoned the smoker yesterday and am currently working on a few mods to regulate temp. What seems to be an acceptable temp range for most? (I’m aiming for 275 so I assumed...
