    Downdraft hood for Traeger

    I'll now testify to the fact that the addition of the downdraft hood has greatly improved the smoke generated from my traeger Texas. Evidently the greater retention of heat causes the fan/auger to oscillate with greater gaps which produces more smoke. I am no longer using a smoke generator and...

    First time smoking wings

    Rib Rub

    I use a modified version of jeffs rub. It's a good base to start from. I also prefer a reduced amount of brown sugar in my rubs as I'm not a big fan of molasses so I increase the amount of white sugar to compensate for it. On most of my beef rubs it will be heavily influenced by salt and...
