    BTU's

    BTU's

    i would recommend that you use a sentry valve on your application to keep the temperature steady. they can be found at the following link: http://www.turkey-fryers-online.com/...trol_valve.htm in order to get a steady amount of smoke, you will need a steady flame under your chip pan to keep it...

    wiring question

    you should be able to get oven repair wire by the foot from your local appliance parts store. it will not degrade in the heat of your smoker. it is on the prices side though.

    My Freezer to Smoker Build

    you are also going to have to replace the beige plastic trim around the door opening. it will emit toxic gas once it is heated. it should not be too much trouble.

    holiday party smoke for 35 people qview

    no. they were the armour pre-cooked meatballs. they work very well for the application. they are mild in flavor and consistent in size. once the bacon is done, you can pull them. we put a container of mahogany sauce with a paintbrush next to them. they went fast.

    anybody using a PID controller?

    i wonder if i will have a problem using the PID in very cold weather. its about 5 degrees F here now and i will be smoking later today. will the PID work in that weather? or will i have to store it inside and then hook it up when i want to use it?
