    Smoke Vault 24 Product Review & Mods

    Nice work Eric. I've been pleased w/ my smoke vault so far. I've had it since January of this year and have produced some of my best smokes. I was using an electric ECB so anything is better. Anyways once I got an extra digi probe I used that to monitor my temps on the same rack as my main...

    Some Bird, beef ribs & a chuck

    No rub Dude. I forgot actually. Man having little kids and trying to have a good smoke can be hard to juggle sometimes! lol. I did though apply a lexington style sauce at the end when I crisped up the skin. I try to smoke a chicken every weekend and use the breast meat during the week for...

    Some Bird, beef ribs & a chuck

    Thanks all. I did the beef ribs for about 5 hours and they came out fine but they were thin on the meat. I did have some temp spikes though. The short ribs cooked quicker than I thought they would and they just weren't tender. Maybe it was the meat it self but they weren't dry. I didn't realize...

    Some Bird, beef ribs & a chuck

    Should be in the beef forum maybe but the chicken was the main course. Smoked with a sweet mix of wood (sugar maple, peach, cherry & apple) and it all turned out great. I put the chicken in an apple sauce bath for a couple of hours and then used s&p & garlic for the beef ribs & chuck. Served w/...

    Maiden/Father's Day Smoke on Smoke Vault 24 w/Q-view

    Good looking smoke! My smoke vault varies on temp big time as well. I use one digi probe to gauge the temp on the same rack as the main piece of meat I want to smoke at the 225*-240* temp. The door thermo is useless pretty much. Try throwing a few pieces of lump in w/ your chips it adds a...

    Charcoals added to Wood chips?

    I've been adding lump to my smokes for a couple months now and I think it does add some flavor. It takes a good hour so for them to ignite and burn.

    Do Beef Ribs use 3-2-1?

    Beef ribs are amazing. I use a rub of kosher salt, black pepper and some garlic powder and then smoke w/ pecan for about 5 hours or so around 225*. Only open the smoker door to add more chips and quickly shut it. I will sauce them about 30 minutes before I take them off.

    First Smoke Butt not going so well

    Yeah my smoke vault thermometer is way off; almost 25-35 deg so get yourself a digital probe and place it near the meat. Only open the door to add some wood real quick and then shut it, don't stare at the food, eventhough its tempting!!

    Wings, ABTs & some more chicken

    Thanks ya'll. It was a good meal. As for the ABTs mballi, when you slow smoke them for 3 hours the jalaps soften up while the bacon crisps up. So when you bite into one there is no crunch (like raw veggie) to the jalapeno. Very good.

    Wings, ABTs & some more chicken

    Got the smoke vault back up and running. With all the wing posts going on I decided to do some wings along w/ a few ABTs and then some breasts and thighs to shred up for lunches during the week. Smoked them with hickory w/ a few pieces of lump thrown in. Smoked right around 240* or so for 3.5...
