    gas smokey mountian great outdoors smoker

    OK. I feel like a moron. I love to cook, and love to smoke. I got an aluminum baking pan (old one lying around) and threw that on the propane smoker today. Well, the problem is that I go out there and the temp is up to 300, and I see the water pan boiling, and the middle of the pan with a huge...

    Been a while since I was on here....

    Well, it's been a few months since I've smoked anything. I'll make sure to take pics. It was kind of a last minute thing to have folks over for NYE, so I've got two 3.5lb butts (would have preferred a whole 7-8lb one, but time is against me today, some country style ribs, and the piece de...

    Hmmm. 10" Cast iron? That may not be a bad idea. How is the smoke production on that? What the heck did you do with the handle on that skillet? :)

    Greetings from Georgia

    I'm out towards Dallas near Lost Moutain Road, off of Midway Rd, actually. I would LOVE to meet some new folks and participate in BLT (As my friends call it... brown liquor time, here in Jawja that qualifies as bourbon and whiskey....) Jim Beam is good... I am a huge rum fan myself, but have...

    gas smokey mountian great outdoors smoker

    Muchos gracias. I wanted to see pics of it, but it's as simple as it sounds. One thing that you guys haven't discussed is getting direct heat onto the water pan. Water pans aren't meant to be boiled, and that's exactly what was happening with my coffee can that I had. The flames from the...

    gas smokey mountian great outdoors smoker

    Can you point me to the right thread? I haven't found that one yet.... Also, the smoker that I have doesn't have a shelf the box sits on, the cast iron box itself has 'wings' to rest on the shelf, so the coffee can mod I'd seen before wouldn't work as well.... hence why I'm looking at the...

    RadioShack Wireless Thermos.....

    Thanks for the info. That's certainly going to be something I'll look into.

    RadioShack Wireless Thermos.....

    I just was looking at one of Jeff's links on 'gear' and this is what I saw: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...16750?n=286168 This damn thing looks IDENTICAL to the RadioCrap one that I have.....

    RadioShack Wireless Thermos.....

    Yeah. I kind of figured. I will get another thermo here soon. I want one with a remote pager though... The Taylor with the pager looks nice. Is there one that not only measures the meat but also the ambient temperature of the smoker/grill? That would be the best. Hey, you want everything...

    Ahh... I'm from the Marietta area as well.... (Got to say Williamson Bros still has some of my favorite sauce around here) We'll have to compare Q sometime. I'm no means an expert. Just one who loves to cook! There is but one secret that makes food taste good time and time again... that's...

    Greetings from Georgia

    I'll have to figger out who is from the ATL around here. I love cooking, and this is a new passion. Just need to keep the wife interested in BBQ more often. :) Best thing is that these cuts of meat won't break the bank.... Between the beans I did (my own version, thanks to some tips from you...

    RadioShack Wireless Thermos.....

    I have a RadioShack meat thermometer.... It's got a wireless unit that is nice, but I don't even REMOTELY trust it now. I have been using it and going by it for some time, but when I was cooking a shoulder on Sat night, it was reading 199 (Doesn't look like it can go over that... it's more for...

    Greetings from Georgia

    Hey all! I'm Dan and from the 'burbs of Atlanta. I've had an ECB in the past, and have recently got a new BBQ Grillware smoker from Lowe's. It's a hell of a lot better than the POS I had before, no question. Although not a complete newbie, I love to cook and grill, so this is something that...

    gas smokey mountian great outdoors smoker

    I just bought a smoker from Lowe's (Listed below -- the BBQ Grillware one) and have had the same problem. I was using the built in cast-iron box.... well, that didn't work as good. I packed it too tight, and didn't get enough smoke. I lessened, and was getting only charred chips... I moved it...
