Wood Chips Question
No. After the meat temp reaches around 140, it will no longer absorb smoke and neither will sealed, foiled meat.- grinder

Wood charcoal vs briquettes?
I forgot, it's the Malis' that's made in the USA, not the imported.- grinder

Wood charcoal vs briquettes?
I like the Stubbs brickets for my Weber kettle. I use Malis' lump in the Primo, because Primo recommends only using lump in their grills.- grinder

Wood Chips Question
When you're getting the proper amount of smoke, it should be barely visible (TBS). Long periods the white billowing smoke will give you a harsh smoke flavor. Blackened wood should still be giving you smoke. Add more chips when the chips in the box start getting ashy looking, but still have some...- grinder

water pans...
I read posts on here a few years ago, from more experienced smokers than me, that a water pan is nothing more than a heat sink and does nothing for adding moisture to the food. I then tried filling the water pan with sand, about an inch from the top and covered it with heavy foil, to act as a...- grinder

Rib Racks?
I use them in my primo xl, if I'm cooking more then 4 racks. I can get 7 racks with the holder I have. That's the only advantage that I see. They are a pain in the butt if you foil the ribs, they tend to scrape off the rub when taking them in and out of the rack and it's one more thing to wash...- grinder

No Smoke...Help!
Ditch the wood pan that came with the smoker. I used stainless bolts to make legs for my skillet, works great. Pics of my mods on page 4 of this thread. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/99373/masterbuild-xl-mods-post-your-mods-here . My set up starts smoke rolling after 10-15 min of lighting. -
BBQ Pit Masters
No, the one I saw was Myron, Johnny Trigg, Lee Ann Whippen and others going from competition to competition. I did catch one episode with Warren Sapp, didn't realize it was even the same show. No wonder they're not doing a third season. Found the first season pretty interesting, minus the...- grinder

Just re-watched the first season on netflix, I had kind of forgotten about the show. Did they ever make a second season?- grinder

Masterbuild XL Mods - Post your mods here!
Got the parts from the local plumbing store. Used a 4" A collar to go down through the top of the smoker. It has the tabs that bend over to hold it in place. I bought stainless zip screws but, didn't need them. I drilled two holes in the chimney and added a damper. The chimney slides over the A...- grinder

Grilled Marinated Vegetables
Sounds great! How long do you marinate? We like zucchini, vadelia onions and mushrooms with evo and montreal seasoning, smoked or grilled. -
First Smoke & the Rain
You might have smoked too long. I usually smoke cheese only about 1 hour for a milder flavor- 1.5 hours for a heavy flavor. I've had great luck with hickory chunks, even tastes great right out of the smoker.- grinder

Masterbuild XL Mods - Post your mods here!
Thanks Otis, I liked your idea of the stack and figured venting through the top would promote even better air flow. I researched the MB on this site before buying it and read about every ones' complaints and the mods they made. I didn't bother trying it out first, so I don't have a comparison...- grinder

Masterbuild XL Mods - Post your mods here!
Here's the mod I made after reading the other posters ideas. The vent in the back seemed pathetic so I cut a 4" hole in the top and added a chimney with a damper and painted it with black bbq paint.I used a cast iron frying pan with stainless steel bolts for legs, for the wood pan. I flipped the...- grinder
