    Anyone use a Pitmaster IQ110 or IQ120?

    I ended up buying an ET-733.  It is pretty great so far after 2 cooks.  I like that the screen lights up in the dark if you wish and the fact that I walked to my neighbors house that was caddy corner from mine and on the opposite side of the house that my my smoker was on (over 300 feet easily)...

    So I made a Mini WSM

    So I made another mini WSM (or BBQ Pro Smokey Mountain)... I ended up coming across a brand new charcoal grill on Craigslist for $10, so I couldn't resist.  I just sold my Brinkmann two-door vertical charcoal smoker so I decided to make another mini.  Why not?  The grill brand is BBQ Pro and...

    Another tamale pot candidate!

    I built my mini WSM with that exact same pot.  All I had to do was compress the rolled lip a little tighter against the side of the pot and it fits so snug that I don't have any smoke leaks.  Thing is rock steady on temps.  I am so used to just reading the charcoal smoker section, I didn't even...

    So I made a Mini WSM

    I see in this picture that you have the Smokey Joe silver.  What did you use to cut the 1" holes in the side of the silver?  A hole saw?  What kind?  I am not brave enough to just try to cut a hole in mine with the hole saw I have.  It worked on cutting holes in the stainless steel dog bowl I...

    Anyone use a Pitmaster IQ110 or IQ120?

    After reading numerous comments about how almost everyone uses or owns the Maverick ET-732, I started to get a little paranoid about my cheapy beginner thermometer/probe from Walmart.  It cost $14.97 right off the shelf, so I cannot expect much.  I had never looked at reviews before now on...

    Anyone use a Pitmaster IQ110 or IQ120?

    Addertooth, I think you need a few more smokers...just sayin'.  I have the Smokey Joe silver, but I do like the set up you have there on the gold.  I think I will just smoke this brisket I have and see how it does before I go trying to solve a problem I may not even have.  I know when I smoke...

    Anyone use a Pitmaster IQ110 or IQ120?

    Thanks for the response.  I seasoned the mini this weekend and it held temp great.  However, the mini was empty, so I am just unsure how much I am going to have to babysit it.  I finally took the pot off the mini at 9 hours and let the fire flare out.  It was still at 165 degrees when I did...

    Anyone use a Pitmaster IQ110 or IQ120?

    I have been checking out the Pitmaster IQ110s and IQ120s online and have seen some stellar reviews, but I have also seem some frustrated consumers.  Seems like the guy who came up with the idea gets pretty defensive with customers when people tell him there are issues with their units.  I even...

    So I made a Mini WSM

    WOW is all I can say with this mini WSM smoker!  I started the fire shortly after 11 am this morning and I am now in my 8th hour and it is still going on the same charcoal.  As mentioned in an earlier reply, the temperature spiked to 450 degrees in the first 30 minutes with both dampers fully...

    So I made a Mini WSM

    I knew better, but just grabbed onto the handles like a moron.  For some reason only 1 finger is burned.  Sad part is...I have welding gloves.

    So I made a Mini WSM

    We are seasoning!  I wiped the inside down with vegetable oil, opened the intake and outtake dampers wide open and started off with a basket full of old charcoal (minion method) to see what this thing is made of.  The guy I bought the Smokey Joe from ($10) threw in an old bag of Sam's Club...

    So I made a Mini WSM

    I definitely wouldn't recommend taking the sticker off before the paint dries!  This Rustoleom high heat grill paint I used dried very fast...like minutes fast.  The can even says I can heat it within 1 hour.  I was able to put on like 5-6 coats on over a couple of hours (as I watched...

    So I made a Mini WSM

    Thanks guys.  I had quite the time finding a big enough steamer pot at first.  We don't have many oceans here in Kansas, so I guess that is the problem.  I ran to a bunch of stores such as Walmart, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, etc., but the largest size any of them carried was 16 qt.  I went to...
