    down & dirty new braunfels save

    It was a freebie from the side of the road:      http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/206255/it-followed-me-home       I found the clean out door of the firebox facing the cooking chamber so I fixed that. Used a tube of high-temp RTV on the obvious leaks, scraped out the firebox and CC (very...

    trap door clean out for firebox?

    Look what I found!  I was sealing up gaps on the offset this evening, and I found the missing firebox clean out.  I mentioned that the neighbor who left the smoker was an over-educated idiot. The firebox on this thing bolt together. He had attached the bottom 1/2 180 degrees off. 8 quick bolts...

    Maverick 733 is smarter than I am! IT DIED!!! parts on the way

    I just replaced my first one. I think this is the 4th summer for it. They have not been treated very nicely. Left hanging down the outside of the drum in rain, snow, ice; you name the abuse and I've probably committed it. The only thing I've really been careful about is not putting them under...

    trap door clean out for firebox?

    The cheap offset i rescued from the curb doesn't have any way to clean the ashes put of the firebox other than to remove the charcoal grate and start scooping.I was thinking about about cutting the bottom 1/3 of the end plate off and fashioning a drawer I could pull out from under the charcoal...

    It followed me home...

    I had just put time in this spring going through my inventory of spare parts and project modifications-in-waiting (can you believe SWMBO referred to my inventory as "junk"?). I utilized what I could, hid some, gave some parts and pieces away, and some even went to the curb. Down to one UDS and...

    buttered rub insertion

    I've never figured out how to get rub under the skin. Once it gets moist, it's hard to position it.  Had a bright idea this morning that worked pretty slick. Cut thin slices off a stick of butter. Lay them on a piece of wax paper and throw them in the freezer for 30 minutes or so. While they're...
