    Smoker fail-question

      I would say that the smoker is fine. Its just the way it operates. At low setting might be 150o once it settles down. Med setting 200o and high 250o. Puting holes in it will only increase the temp. due to electric smokers cycle like an oven. You could get a PID. That will help keep temps down...

    Alternative to the mailbox mod

     Thanks for the replys.  Fixer: I wanted to keep that vent usable incase I neede more air flow into the grill for the amnps to work. It also alows me to use it as normal after closing up the hole I cut in.  JD07: I had a smoker just like that. I gave it to a friend who was just getting into...

    Venison Sausage

     I would agree with to much heat or to close to it. You didn't mention what type of heat you used (propane,charcoal or electric).   My mix for sausage is #20 of veni to #5 of pork scrap that I get from the butcher. What IT temp did you pull it at and how long did you cook it makes a big...

    First smoke in the Little Chief...1st attempt at Jerky

    For a first jerky smoke. The meat looks great. I have learned myself how fast it can go.  I also use scewers. Picked up 20ft of stainless .25in rolled. Cut  to fit smoker. Seems I get more meat and a better consistancy while smoking.

    No pellet smoke

    I may be way out of line. After reading jimbo's post. He states that the "flame", goes out when he puts it in the box. If I am not mistaken that, that is what should happen (flame goes out) that will then produce the blue smoke.   I am ordering a box from Todd today. Just not sure which...

    masterbuilt cold smoker kit

     With my mes kit I just shim it. Easy in and out. Very little loss of smoke at that point.   Do you turn the kit off after smoke rolling? I have been with good results. I take the tray from the kit out and place foil on the bottom. Also if breezy I use the tray as a damper.  I have mixed chips...

    2012 Masterbuilt Smokers - NEW 30" & 40" Models!

     Save your money and not purchase any masterbuilt smokers.   I am finished with this new unit. I am on a replacement. 3/4 way through a smoke it won't keep temp. I raise the temp and only max out at 140o. I have never had this kind of trouble before. Time to cut losses.
