    New "Easy Access" GOSM w/BassProView

    The only advantage I see is you should not be hit by a huge blast of smoke when you open the drawer like you would when you open the main door, which might make it so you haven't desensitised yourself to the smoke flavor as much when it's time to eat. On the down side, it looks like you're...

    Walmart Packers

    They tend to be a little dryer than higher quality brisket, but you should be fine if you wrap in foil. With brisket, it's not really about the marbling, it's about melting the callogen. Marbling is good for cuts of meat where you're not going to cook the snot out of it, and you're probably...

    King Kooker 38" smoker review

    Do you think you could fit a full size packer brisket in that beast? If not, KK really needs to make a larger size. I'm sure it would become the king of gas smokers if they made one 24 inches wide.

    New grill/smoker dilemma: Char-griller 3001

    Cheap grills are designed so you replace them quickly, and before you know it, they end up more expensive than a high end grill. Places like Walmart like it this way so you keep comming back. While I don't have any experience with the grill in question, it does not appear to have a place to...

    Smoke Vault 24 Product Review & Mods

    I wish I could find my dremel so I could be done with it. I just don't have the the right tools to do this without warping the entire vent. Plyers and a nail hammer just aren't cutting it.....

    Smoke Vault 24 Product Review & Mods

    The vent covers are not on the smoker right now. The problem is when I try to bend the tab, it twists the entire vent cover, not the tab istself.

    Need ideas for a Smoke Daddy stand

    Have you thought about laying a soup or juice can full of wood directly on the burner (similar to what the "Afterburner" has you do)? To see what I'm talking about, check out the link. http://www.gassmoker.com/ezsmoke.htm

    Second smoke - Bitter Brisket

    A few thoughts come to mind. I have never had a problem with too much smoke on an electric smoker, even when the smoke comming out looked heavy. Having said that, I suppose you could have too much smoke. How fresh was the wood you got from your tree? If the branch was too fresh, that could be...

    Is GOSM from Bass Pro double hulled?

    That King Kooker weighs 120 pounds That's much heavier than the 24 inch wide GOSM (and Smoke Vault, which is supposedly slighter better built than the GOSM but I can't verify that). It's unfortunate that they don't make a 24 inch wide version of that King Kooker. The 38 inch version is only...

    So I ended up with a Browning Smoke Vault

    My door isn't that bad (I don't think there's an actual gap between the door and the inside flap that stops the door). I just think the door itself isn't square, and who knows how it will change once I heat the unit up. That's a good idea about the gasket. Obviously, I'm going to try mine out...

    Smoke Vault 24 Product Review & Mods

    Can you tell me the possition of the top vent durring your tests? Do you know the wind speed and direction (in relation to the side vents)? Thanks...

    So I ended up with a Browning Smoke Vault

    Well, the unit is mostly together (I know, I'm taking my time) and the door seems to be fitting much bettter. The door is no longer rubbing the bottom of the unit, but it's still not close to square (the gap at the top front edge is 2 or three times larger than the gap on the bottom front...

    So I ended up with a Browning Smoke Vault

    Yeah, I'm getting tired of cheap products. You buy cheap, you buy again. Unfortunately, that has moved on to mid ranged products (and even some so called high end products) where you think you're spending extra money on quality only to be fooled later. As far as the unit is concerned, it was...

    Cleaning MES

    Just get rid of the excess grease, and if you see chips or flakes on the walls, get rid of them too. Enjoy your smoker.

    New Masterbuilt-MES Sam's Club W/QVIEW

    With the *much* more powerfull element, the same exposure would fry the chips in no time. I don't like how the chip pan is smaller though, and wish they had made it chunk friendly. My goal is to be able to put all the wood in at one time so I don't need to keep messing with it. I'm still kind...

    Cleaning MES

    The main thing inside the smoker is to keep the temp probe clean. Other than that, I don't think you have to worry about it and I would not use any kind of detergent or soap as it may make the meat taste like soap or detergent. You can try one of those green scrubbing pads with water every...

    So I ended up with a Browning Smoke Vault

    Thanks again. So chunks only last about an hour? Have you tried stacking them to get more time? If I can find a way to get 4 hours or so, I'd be thrilled.
