If the thermostat thing doesn't work, you could always go to your local electronics supplier and buy a variable resister. Just splice the power cord and make the appropriate connections. Play around with it to figure out what temps you get out of what position as there will be no graduations...
Is the gap on the smokin' pro really big enough to cause a problem? I would thing that since the gap is at grate level and if you have the vent mod in there the heat and smoke loss from the gap shouldn't be a problem since the heat and smoke will fill up the smoker from the top down.
Just...
Oh yeah, I toasted my buns too, 5-10 seconds on direct high heat leaves a nice crust and the top is nice and fluffy like it was never touched.
Of course I used lots of butter too, gotta have butter.
My wife just came up with this tonight and it turned out great!
1 Bunch of asparagus
1 sheet of puff pastry cut to .5" strips
prosciutto split in half lengthwise (not sure how many slices you'll need...Just play it by ear)
Parmesan cheese (I'm spoiled, I buy fresh blocks) Shredded.
Preheat...
It should be pretty simple, Just set up your smoker to about 225 and do whatever you want to it and smoke it to temp, as it's already pre cooked, you're just warming it up and adding flavor.
I just threw together some awesome burgers! (sorry they went too fast for pix...I gotta get a kitchen cam) Here's the recipe using 1# of beef, multiply as needed.
1# Ground beef (80% or less)
1/2 minced onion
4 slices of bacon fried crispy and crumbled
2 t celery salt
4 slices of your favorite...
Hey ProV, You found a great place to assist with your smoker shopping, and I found it can be pretty overwhelming if you try to go it alone. You can get reviews on just about every smoker out there on this site, plus there is probably more information on smoking meat and smokers on this website...
Welcome to the forums! This is the friendliest place on the net Bar None!
Have fun smoking, post TONS of pics, ask questions, and answer any you might know the answer to.
Again Welcome to SMF!
Hey Meowy, I know how ya feel, I can't wait for mine to come either!! It's supposed to be here on wednesday and I'm already putting it together and modding it over and over in my head...then I'm seasoning it, and putting a brisket on, and some butts, and ribs...mmmmmmm... ...I want my smoker!!!
Never in my readings on how to season a smoker have I heard mention of a full water pan being used. I'm not sure what the water would even accomplish since you are just slathering the insides with oil, impregnating it with smoke, and letting it polymerize to an almost teflon like glaze. That...
I just did a google search for Barbecue Competitions and smoking-meat.com came up as the #1 hit EVEN BEFORE KCBS!!!
Congrats on a most excellent site Jeff!
I'll have my Brother-in-law here to help me out if need be, alas, he is vegan so I'll have to smoke him something special if there's time, I'll not go into why he's vegan and just leave it at that. I hope I'll be able to find time to at least get her put together in between first of the month...
OOOH BURN LOL
I was wondering if there was a map of the venu area to look at to see what kind of stuff was around...I'll check google I guess. Might be able to find a good meeting place too.
If lactose intolerance is the case, get yourself some lactaid. It does something to neutralize the sugars (lactose) in the milk/cream and makes it easier to digest. Of course cheese doesnt have that problem because (correct me if I'm wrong) the enzymes used in the cheese making process eat up...
