    My Father's Day Smoke

    Still doing good. The smallest butt came off a while ago and is in the cooler. The other butt and brisket are at about 186 right now. I just finished up preping the fatty's and ABT's. And while I was doing that, my wife went to get my Father's Day present. Needless to say, I will be putting...

    My Father's Day Smoke

    Well, it is okay, I made up for it. I had some leftover rib eye in the fridge. I sautÃ169ed it with some fresh diced chili pepper and then fried an egg, added fresh baby spinach and then some grated cheese. Put it on some buttered toast and enjoyed. Great start to the day!

    My Father's Day Smoke

    Its 8:00 and we are coming along just fine. The smallest butt hit 170, so it is wrapped up in foil. I'll pull it off when it hits 200. The biggest butt and the brisket have plateau'd at 160 and 156. I'll wait until the butt hits 170 and the brisket hits 160 and then wrap them up as well. I...

    My Father's Day Smoke

    Here is a peak at 2:30am. My dear Lord it smells good out there. I'm reminded yet again why I'm willing to get up at 2:30am to do this. I LOVE BBQ!!!

    My Father's Day Smoke

    To answer someone's question, I did use Jeff's rub on the brisket too. I actually makes Jeff's rub and then add a couple of my own "secret" ingredients. Here is the meat going into the smoker @ 230 degrees. I'll get up around 2:30am to spray everything down with apple juice. I'm using apple...

    First Smoke...HELP

    Jeff's rub is good on anything! Read Piney's link he gave you and you will be fine. Be sure you season your smoker first!!! And make sure to post some pictures of the outcome. BTW, welcome to SMF! Its a great place to learn and drool.

    My Father's Day Smoke

    Gearing up for a big pool-side bash on Saturday with all of our friends and I have been commissioned to do the Q. I had a 5# brisket in the freeze that I set out on Monday. Today when I got home and reached for a beer I saw, to my surprise, two wonder looking butts (pork, not human!) for a...

    Short in my Masterbuilt

    Well, thanks the good folks at SMF, my MES is back in action. The whole project set me back about $40 ($22 for the wire and $18 for misc parts and a six pack, it was hot out today ). I did follow the advice of others and screwed the back on. Given the design of the little box that covers...

    Short in my Masterbuilt

    I figured out why my MB stop heating last weekend. I torn out the element and found that it had shorted out. It looks like they had some kind of plastic backer between the back wall and the contacts for the element. Well a short occurred on the right post with the back wall. You can see in...

    Looking to buy a gasser

    First, thanks everyone who has posted this far. Which GOSM is considered the big block? And what is the difference in the other model? And for those of you who have done mods, what do you think the most critical mod to do? From what I have read, it seems like throwing out the chip pan for a...

    My first ABTs

    God love them ABTs. I have never done them boat-style. I usually, cut them in half, throw my cream cheese in there, put some bacon around the end and secure with a toothpick and lay directly on the grate. But, any way you do them will always yield a tasty morsel. If you have not done a fatty...

    I SCORED on a smoker! (seasoning advice??)

    Just so you know, I got the same one at Sam's last June. I have used it quite a bit and have very good results until this weekend when what looked like the element went out in it. The control box said it was heating, but I could put my hand on the element. I did not get the extended warranty...

    Looking to buy a gasser

    Okay folks, I need ya'lls first hand knowledge on buying a new propane smoker (see reason here). Keep in mind that I smoke just about every other weekend and I want decent quality. I live in the southern states, so the temp doesn't get that low but very humid so rust is a bit of a concern for...

    Looking to do a meatloaf

    Well, even after a smoker failure, here is the end product. The loaf turned out just fine (good moisture). Hardly any smoke, but what can you expect from a grill. When I have a bit more time, I will post my recipe for the meatloaf. It is actually one my wife makes. The sauce is killer!
