It was the Steak House style. Thanks for the link to the lump charcoal. I found that thread and link after my wife bought me the R.O.S.H. That particular style doesn't rate well on their chart . Thanks. Peace , Wanbli
I did a 12 hour smoke yesterday using charcoal and wood. I tried 2 types of lump, Cowboy and Royal Oak and some hickory. I like the Cowboy more than the Royal Oak in every way. It had bigger chunks, burned longer and more evenly than the Royal Oak. The Royal Oak had nothing but small pieces...
I use the bark from Birches to light fires, it produces a heavy thick smoke. Does it do that while still on the logs? I know it smells awesome while burning though. I never thought to use it for smoking because of that smoke from the bark, sometimes it's thick and black smoke. There are oils in...
Look in the want ads from your local newspaper. There should be somebody selling firewood and advertising it there. I just picked up a load of hickory for $40, split and ready to use. It filled the box of my pickup ( shortbox Chevy ). I buy wood from this guy at least once a year. He sells a lot...
We have a local company that makes awesome hot dogs and sausages. Koegels is their name and if you ask somebody from Michigan they will tell you "Koegels is the Best Hot Dog In The World". They make a helluva bratwurst too but you can only get those in 10lb packs. Peace ,Wanbli
I previewed my posting before it was finished and for some rerason it posted. Sorry about that folks. One of them has more pics than the other. Peace all, Wanbli
My wife wandered out to the pit area while I was smoking the brisket. She said it was chilly and asked me to start a fire in the pit.
Later in the day we roasted some hot dogs and polish sausage for lunch
The we decided to do some S'mores
I had the guard dog on duty near the pits...

Greetings Dexter, What kind of rig are you going to smoke in , and what are you cooking ? I have a small off-set Brinkmann and a verticle smoker that I use charcoal to bring up to temp then I put wood on top of it to smoke and take over the heating as well. I don't want a big fire in either one...
I got cold roll steel @ Home Depot. They had it stored in a weird place, like back by wood moldings and doors. I got some 12"X12" pieces, they had some a little bigger too. Tractor Supply Company also had some in their hardware area. Good luck. Peace, Wanbli
Awesome article. Good exposure is hard to come by and this article was all good. Congratulations Jeff ! Thank you for giving us a place to learn and share in our meat smoking endeavors. Peace , Wanbli
These branches definetely have no sap in them. So I'm going to take RickW's advice and use it like I stole it. lol. Thanks for the replies. When using an open pit and coals creosote isn't an issue. If there was any it was burned out before the grate went over the coals. The hickory burns clean...
