    Old Country BBQ Pits Over and Under Smoker

    I saw the new door design at Academy recently. I got mine in November & it has braces welded on the underside of both lids. There were 2 in the store at that time, one had the braces & one didn't, & as mentioned I got the braced lid model. I've cooked on it nearly evey weekend & haven't had...

    Making rub vs store bought

    What I see first listed on the ingredients for a majority of the store bought rubs is salt. Salt is cheap & is more of a filler, keeping their production costs down. Most I have tried, the salt is mostly what I taste. When I want salt, I use kosher salt along with coarse black pepper for a...

    Needle Valve Mod

    Anywhere after the regulator. But most of us have installed it at the point where the hose attaches to the smoker gas control knob. This makes it much easier to adjust the flow while watching the flame on the burner without having to go adjust & come back to the smoker, go adjust again and...

    over and under old country boys smoker!

    I have an Old Country BBQ Over & Under smoker that I got in October. I did my burn in & season, & the fire grate warped. I got mine to 350-375 using charcoal & oak for about 3 hours to burn off the oils and crud from the manufacturing. Then I seasoned it with safflower oil & fired her up...

    barrel inside paint removal advice

    That liner has to be removed before using it for cooking. I wouldn't use chemical paint remover either. Do you have a friend that lives outside your city limits where you could take it and burn it out?

    How long /when to replace the wood chunks

    I have a Char-broil gasser and a Old Country BBQ lump/stick burner.  When I use the gasser, I have a cast iron skillet on a grate where the combo chip pan/water pan used to be.  I also have a water pan on a rack above that. I will get my smoker up to the temp I want to cook at, then I'll put in...

    Finally found me some...butcher paper!

    I was able to find some locally at a paper/box/restaurant supply place.  But all they had was the 36". So I tear off enough for the size of the brisket, and then use the 36" width to "roll" up around it.  I also save the butcher paper that the briskets get wrapped in, wad it up and stick in a 5...

    There's a reason why I started smoking......my wife's cooking.

    Great story! I can sympathize too. My wife told me she wanted to go somewhere she's never been and see things she's never seen...... so I took her to the kitchen.....:yahoo:

    Fire Grate In Old Country BBQ Over & Under

    Old Country BBQ uses an 1/8" plate with rectangular holes cut in it for their fire grates. It might not be an issue with their offset models due the length & width of those grates, but the grate in my Over & Under is 17" x 29". I noticed during my initial burn & season it looked like it was...

    Thermometer

    My Old Country Over & Under had the same issue with one of the thermometer holes. I used a step bit to get it the next hole size & the thermometer fit thru just fine & the nut tightened it down with no issues. It didn't thread in like the other one did, but it's tight & there's no leaking...
