    Blues Hog

    Great sauce. I don't use it on everything though, as it can be a little overpowering in my opinion; especially if I am more interested in the smoke flavor. Perhaps I shouldn't put as much on. There's also a Blues Hog rub which is great as well.

    Expanded Metal Cooking Grid?

    I have a 10 year old gas grill that I need to replace some parts on once again. I am contemplating the use of expanded metal for the cooking grid as well as the grid that supports the ceramic briquets. Will this work alright? Can I just buy a piece at one of the big box hardware stores and...

    Seasoning my Chargriller

    Thanks for the replies. I ended up using canola oil cooking spray. I got a little too carried away with the lump. I had one chimney going in the sfb and then I added another to the main chamber. Before I knew it, the temp was probably pushing 325-350 (I think the manual says not to go above...

    Seasoning my Chargriller

    I am seasoning my new CGSP (in fact I have a chimney of lump about ready to go). Is soybean oil alright to use for this purpose?

    What to do with my new smoker??

    Yes, Fireguy. I was talking about the Side Fire Box. I also know the main cooking chamber lid is not tight. Which do you think is a bigger issue? I figured the SFB might be something a little easier to address initially. As it was, I had to return the first SFB as it had about an 1/8 to 1/4...

    What to do with my new smoker??

    I picked up the CGSP a week ago and still haven't lit a fire in it. Between the weather and my schedule, I just haven't had the time to devote to seasoning it. I was wanting to do some mods before I seasoned it. I am specifically wanting to address the sfb and it's non-airtight lid. It seems...

    Char-griller grillin' pro model 3001 gas

    Congratulations on the grill. I had thought about the duo model. I had seen it at a couple of places for around $300, but I opted to go with the CGSP. I already have a gas grill (although it's 10 years old) What did you use fo gasket on your SFB?

    Thanks, Leviathan. It's great to see all us 'neighbors' joining up at the same time. Finding this forum in part helped make my decision on what grill/smoker to buy. I am somewhat new to the charcoal scene so I am glad to find such a friendly and helpful forum. I look forward to seeing you...

    Another Missouri SMF Newbie

    Thanks for the warm welcome all. It looks like I am one of many joining up. Ikeart, Thanks for the advice. I was originally referring to the lid on the side fire box that was not closing properly. However, after reading your post, I noticed that the main lid is out of kilter some. I plan on...

    Another Missouri SMF Newbie

    Howdy all, Another Missourian here. I've been a gas griller for about 10 years (sacrelidge, yes I know) and have had the same gas grill for as long. I had been wanting to get another grill. I was initially planning on going with another gas grill. After having shopped around a bit, and...
