    Oh, ok. I thought I did that, but the butt roast I was cooking was still bloody on the inside when I pulled it at 140.

    Can I smoke a boneless rump roast?

    I foiled it before putting it in the oven. I don't think the temp spiked but it could have. The oven is on 225. I'll pull it when it gets to 200 and see how it does.

    Can I smoke a boneless rump roast?

    Problems cooking this rump roast. It was on the smoker at about 225*. Two different thermometers read internal temps of 140*. The outside was tough, the inside was still bloody looking. It weighs about 3.5 pounds and had cooked for about 3 hours. We just put it in the oven at 225*. Any...

    Thanks for the advice. I'll try to get some q-view, but no promises. Trying to prepare for Gustav.

    Can I smoke a boneless rump roast?

    It's not listed on the time and temp chart and I've never even smoked beef before. I like pork. My neighbor brought this as we're preparing for the hurricane. If I can smoke this rump roast, what are the times, temp, steps, etc to do it? Thanks.

    Problems with my fire in my first stickburn

    Other than the very first part of my smoke, the stacks were open pretty much all the time. I found that it helped my temp rise plus it didn't trap the smoke in. I still had a lot of smoke pass through though. Maybe I need some smaller splits. I dunno.

    Problems with my fire in my first stickburn

    I'm hoping you guys can help here. Yesterday was my first burn with a stickburner and I don't think it went like it should. Started with three splits of oak in the firebox with propane assistance. Added a 4th when the temp was still around 150 about an hour later. It still didn't go up much...

    My new (used) smoker pictures

    I cooked some chicken quarters, a whole chicken and a rack of ribs just to test her out. All came out good and I'll post some Q-view soon. I had fits keeping the temp up though. I finally had to turn the propane back on. I struggled and finally got it to about 270*. Then it dropped a lot and it...

    How long for the fire to burn before cooking?

    I have the dampers open now. For about 30 minutes they were only partially open because nobody could keep an eye on it and I wanted to be careful since this is my first time. I have four splits now, but not really much of a bed of coals. I had three splits at first, then added a fourth. It looks...

    How long for the fire to burn before cooking?

    My wood has been lit for about 45 minutes and I'm not close to 250*. I didn't think it would take this long. I'm still learning though. I have four oak splits with propane flames burning under them.

    How long for the fire to burn before cooking?

    How long does it take for you all to get your fire where you want it before you start cooking and how will I know? Just watch the thermo temps? On the flavored wood, do you add that as soon as you put the meat on? Sorry for the newbie questions, but I'm still learning. Got wood started in the...

    Question on baby backs and chicken

    My cousin told me about something that you put on rust and just turns it to powder that you can brush off. He's supposed to be getting the product name for me. I'll let you know.

    Where to get good flavored wood for a smoke?

    I think I have some hickory or apple chunks here. I need to find some split oak. You're right - I'm ready to get started.
