    Hi Rex. I used to work in a butcher shop many, many moons ago where we processed a lot of deer. Never did the sausages, but mad a lot of venison burger.

    Smoking An Oven Mitt

    Welders gloves are good, but WILL get hot and burn you. I recommend going to a restaurant or bakery supply store and getting the rubberized 500 degree oven gloves. These will let you handle anything you need to, and will not let grease thru to burn you when you are removing meat from the grill...

    BBQ Smoker Question C-Pic

    Low & Slow vs Hot and Fast

    I have a CharGriller Pro with the side mounted fire box. When I do ribs, I use my own dry rub, and keep the smoker going at 200-225 for about 3-4 hours. I try to never let it get over 250. I will mop on a finishing sauce and flip once or twice just before they are done, long enough for the sauce...

    Too much Q-View?

    Ooops, I think I just drooled on my keyboard! That all looked delicious. I would love to have your recipie for the fatty. Don't believe I have ever heard of one or had one. As for your foil comment, I never foil my shoulders, loins or butts. Foiling seems to steam all of the juice out of the meat.

    Char-griller grillin' pro model 3001 gas

    I have the CharGriller pro with the sfb. I have had it for 6 or 7 years now, and use it quit often. The wood handles have held up great, as has rest of the unit. If you are concerned about the loss of smoke and heat, don't be. It WILL take you a bit of practice building a fire and controlling...

    Please define "reverse flow"

    Thank you, Gentlemen for that info. I am considering building a new one some time this year, but for now, this one works very well. I have not had any complaints as of yet about anything I have cooked on it.

    Please define "reverse flow"

    Thanks, Al. Question: Would my plate need to be touching the sides of the tank for it to be a true reverse flow? I did upload some pics of it.
