    What temp was the smoker running? I've had mine running when it was 10 degrees out and 225 was any where from 1/4 to 1/2 on the temp dial depending on the wind. I've also maxed out my Maverick (350+) when I cranked it up in similar weather. There may be something wrong with yours, I seem to...

     I've done a coffee rub on brisket, but never pork. I'm not sure how that would work out. It's a Steven Raichlen recipe, I didn't make his sauce (I dont think a good brisket needs any) but the rub is pretty good. http://www.primalgrill.org/season2/recipes/205_recipes.html

    QView - My first brisket - the challenge of the stall

    Did you have it foiled when you put it in the oven? If not, that is why it is so dry, ovens have really dry heat.

    I'm actually thinking about blocking the factory one and cutting a hole in top of it, I'm not too fond of cutting holes like that though

    I've only had the chunks catch fire once, on my last smoke. I was running the burner wide open and it was about 275+ degrees at the time. I have my cast iron pan right on top of the included chip pan. I've also had it going in single digit temps without issue. The other day around 40 degrees...

    No problem, I ended up getting a big pan with a rack in it from Walmart. It was a pretty good sized heavy duty pan and it's worked great so far. I am LOVING this smoker. It's so much easier and more consistent than my big ole stick burner. Not to mention it's WAY more efficient. The amount of...

    After my first smoke (I used a big roaster pan) I cant imagine how useless that tiny pan would be. I ran my large roaster pan empty a couple times and it's about 3x the size. Where did you find a roaster pan at? And how ell does it fit. Bring on the pics! I almost bought one of them...

    I ended up doing this when I seasoned mine last night, it worked great. I'll just keep doing it this way until I find an oven grate.

    Turkey fatty?

    We made one in our oven once, Im not sure how this recipe would turn out on the smoker, probably wouldn't hurt :). After rolling the turkey out, we spread some Bertolli Alfredo sauce on it, then covered it with swiss cheese, fresh spinach leaves, and then some chopped cooked bacon. We then...

    Anybody know how low of a temp these things can go to and still have usuable smoke? I just ordered mine yesterday after finding a $20 off $100+ purchase at Bass Pro. Coupon code is SAVEPC6 and expires 12-13-10
