    Turkey Question

    This is exactly the expertise I was expecting! Thanks so much for your answers and ideas. The turkey is only 12 lbs.-ish. I am going to try and find a can big enough to hold it standing up. That is a wonderful idea! If I can't, what should I expect for a cook time? I was planning the...

    Turkey Question

    My wife and I bought a turkey before I ever got my smoker. I've been reading about buying the 'all natural' turkeys that haven't been injected with broth and seasoning etc., but this one is (5% broth and other seasonings). My question is before I smoke this should I still brine it or will the...

    Little Cheif Top Load

    Would a butt or fatty or chicken be good? Don't know pops would do a brisket anyway! He loved the chicken and fatty I made and wants to make his own now too. He bought a smoke box for his gas grill, but I thibk he might like using something like this a bit better. Thanks again everyone! J-

    Little Cheif Top Load

    Anyone out there have experience with one of these? I found a used one and thought it might be a good starter smoker for my father. What opinions do you have of this smoker? Is it a good 'first' smoker? Thanks in advance! J-

    7 in one Masterbuilt

    This is the one I have as well (again, not stainless). I am missing a grate and the water bowl. I also want to pick up a turkey fryer pot for it. Are there any mods to help maintain temp.? Do you (personally) use gas to smoke or charcoal? I bought a pizza plate from Lowes today that fits...

    7 in one Masterbuilt

    I just got a hold of one of these too and was going to post the same thing. Mine is used and I think it's missing some parts...I only have one grate and one bowl in the bottom. I have the stand, the burner, mid section, and the top w/thermometer. Anything else I should be looking for? Sorry...

    Good Price or No Dice?

    Wu- Baker's is where I found that price. I'm thinking of heading that way as well. There's one on 168th-ish and Center...right?

    Good Price or No Dice?

    I found pork spare ribs for $2.19/lb. Good price or no dice? I have no experience in buying ribs so I'm asking the good people of SMF of their opinions. Thanks! J-

    Smoke #2 Comin' Up...

    Well, the chicken is on and cooking as of 1:15 central time. It's about 4.75 lbs. and the smoker is holding steady at 250 so I'm assuming about 4-5 hrs. (Cook to temp. not time). I'll throw the fatty on in a few hrs. It's a turkey w/ cheddar, pepper jack, sauteed onions and peppers, and sun...

    Smoke #2 Comin' Up...

    I'm not for sure what I'm going to use. I have some generic chicken seasoning I thought about. I also thought about some lemon pepper. I'm brining it in kosher salt, cumin, parsley, garlic powder, and brown sugar. I'm not very good with spices at this point and just use what smells good...
