    Where can I get the best price on LumberJack Pellets?

    I buy LJ pellets from a family owned business out of a home garage. I pay $10 for a 20 lb bag out the door. Local store business sell the same pellet for $13 at one store and 14 at another store. I only use Maple/Hickory/Cherry blend for everything. Too damn lazy to constantly switch pellet...

    camp chef woodwind constant flame outs

    I sympathize with your frustration DP. I'm a novice when it comes to pellet grills as my Woodwind is my very fisrt adventure into this new hobby. I have years of experience with smokers having owned both Luhr-Jensen Big & Little Chief models and a couple of Bradleys. I never cared about...

    Non-stick mats

    I've used Frog Mats for years in my Bradley smoker and would like to use some mats in my new pellet grill for smoked fish and jerky. Are there other alternatives to Frog Mats out there. and if so, what are they called and where can I find them?

    camp chef woodwind constant flame outs

    Yeah, I'm kind of thinking the same thing. It looks good on paper, but in the real world it doesn't work like that. I'm disappointed that it doesn't work like they say, but I'm happy with the cooks so far. :emoji_sunglasses:

    camp chef woodwind constant flame outs

    I sent them a picture of the gap between the burn pot and the edge of the auger tube and asked them if they thought the gap was excessive. They didn't say yes or no but did say they would send me a replacement. So I installed it. You will also notice in the picture above some black bumps on...

    Opinions on Pellet grills

    Sorry, but I have to comment. You guys are funny in a ha ha way. Very entertaining comments on how and why a company makes marketing decisions without being privy to company information, goals, profit levels, etc. No disrespect intended to any of you or your comments, but i do find this...

    camp chef woodwind constant flame outs

    I just replaced the burn pot on my Woodwind yesterday. The instructions were straight forward and seemed simple enough - wrong. You will need to remove the heating element from the old burn pot. To do this, you need to loosen the one screw that holds it in place. The problem was that the...

    camp chef woodwind constant flame outs

    I also have a Woodwind - SG w/ Sear Box - and have not had a single flame out on mine. I do have an ash problem build up in the barrel and discovered a warped ash clean out plate (slides over to drop the ash into the collection cup under the barrel). The warped plate was letting the...

    Inkbird IRF-4S Thermometer Review

    I've had mine for about a month now and I'm very pleased with it so far. Did my own temp check on a sous vide 160*F cook and an ice water check. All 4 probes were reading within tolerances for the temps checked. I'ved used it on a pulled pork cook which was perfect and on a recent turkey...

    Camp Chef Woodwind SG or Rec Tec RT700 Bull?

    Can't speak to the RecTec, but just bought a Woodwind SG w/Sear Box in February this year. I have had a couple of issues with it and their customer service is great. Quick and accurate trouble shooting help by phone and via emails. My cooks have been excellent and operation is very easy to...

    93% Lean Turkey Jerky

    Since the weather today was not ideal for fishing – chilly and moist – I decided it would be a good day to make some jerky. The meat used is 93% lean ground turkey. The jerky mixings are from Hi Mountain Seasonings and I used the Cajun Spice and the Mandarin Teriyaki flavors. I used a LEM...

    Smoked Rainbow Trout Fillets

    Depending on which brand smoker you have, you may have to adjust the total cooking time, so check the fillets at least once an hour. These fillets were off about 1 pound trout. Thicker fillets will require more cooking time. When they break in the middle when you bend them and the meat color...

    Smoked Rainbow Trout Fillets

    I took a buddy fishing last Thursday and we hammered some cookie cutter rainbow trout to the tune of about 30 of them. The term ‘cookie cutter’ is the local term for hatchery planted 10 to 12 inch trout. We kept our legal limit of 4 trout each and released all the rest. Went back to the same...

    Very Disappointed In Traeger Pellet Grill/Smokers

    As it is with almost anything. S**t happens and there isn't a single company out there that can claim 100% satisfaction from 100% of their customers.

    Cooking Temps vs Elevation

    From another website suggestion, I contacted my local extension service - Utah State University Extension Service - and this is the response I got back: Bottom line is - no adjustment needed.

    Cooking Temps vs Elevation

    In pressure canning of fish and fowl, you must account for your elevation/altitude above sea level to achieve the safe cooking temperatures to kill the harmful bacteria. Is the same true for regular cooking of meats or fish in a smoker? I’ve never seen that in a recipe or in my manuals for my...

    Is the smoke setting ok for a large brisket for about 10 hours

    Cooking brisket is NOT exact science. It's more of an art and there are millions of artists doing it by thousands of different methods. The smoke profile is different for each type of equipment and developing your artistic flare will be based partly on your equipment. It's a learning process...

    New GMG smoker, what's up with this cover??

    I'm with Oklahoma Joe on this. Take it to an upholstery shop and have a "D" Ring attached at each of the 4 corners and 1 each front and back center. Then run a bungee cord from each "D" Ring straight down and hook to the bottom shelf. It will never blow off. And shame on GMG for the lack of...

    New RecTec Stampede Owner

    I'm NOT an expert at this by anyone's gauge, but have done 1 baby back and 1 St Louis rack. Both were done 3-2-1 with a wrap in the 2. The baby back meat FELL off the bone and was superb. The St Louis meat pulled off the bone with very little effort and was also superb. The 3-2-1 seems to...
