    Pitmasters tonight

    I'm sure almost all of us here on the forum would love a show like that too. I doubt that it would generate much viewership outside of us hard core smoke-heads. No one, not even Food Network or the Documentary Channel, would undertake a series like you mentioned that would have such a small...

    temp probe

    When I start a cook, I use the probes to measure the cooking chamber temps at various places on the cooking grate so I can adjust the baffle to get the temps as uniform across the chamber as I can. I will usually move one probe into a butt around the 4 hour mark & leave it for the rest of the...

    A newbie

    Let me add my $0.02 worth with most of the others. I would not brine or inject on your first attempt. Keep the first couple of butts you do simple. A basic rub & sauce. Make a written record of your time & temps. Now you have a baseline to work from. If the first couple did not turn out as...

    smokin pro vs charbroil silver

    I've had a CG for several months & am very pleased with it. I have not ever cooked on a Charbroil silver. The CG I have replaced a Brinkman SNP. Here are a few things that made me choose the CG. I wanted an easy way to dump ashes during long smokes. The SFB on the CG has an ash drawer that...

    Char Grill Models

    I have the Super Pro with the added SFB & I can get a lot of food on there at once. The Outlaw is bigger & will hold more food. Since you have a larger cooking area to heat, you will use more fuel. IOW, cooking 2 butts on an Outlaw will consume significantly more fuel that cooking 2 butts on a...

    newb needs advice with sfb

    First, did you knock out the football shaped inserts on both the main chamber & the SFB? Do you have anything blocking the opening between the main chamber & SFB? Second, the stock thermometer on the CG is basically worthless. You need to have a way to measure temp at cooking grate level in...

    First butt question...

    You can take it off at a lower temp, but the meat will not pull. You can safely take pork off at 170 but you will have to slice or chop the meat. You still want to let the meat rest so the juices have time to redistribute internally.

    Okay guys lighter fluid or not

    First, the rig Myron is cooking with & the way & the amount of food he is cooking is a lot different from us backyard folks. From what I saw, he was use the fluide to create a quick, hot base fire. He's got a huge rig to heat plus all that water in the water pan. I also recall that he is...

    minion method ?

    Yes that is a Charbroil shaker basket. Depending upon conditions, I get 2-3 hours at 235 - 240. I could let it go longer, but I will go ahead & shake down the ash, rake the burning coals over to the MC side & reload the basket with more charcoal as soon at the temps drop below 235 to keep the...

    minion method ?

    Here's my version of the Minion method I use in CG w/SFB Fill the basket with briquettes with 4-5 chunks mixed in. I leave the front corner opposite th e side vent open for the lit briquettes. This forces the fire to burn back against the air flow & slows the rate of burn I have a no name...
