    When it's hot it's hot

    Here, here!!  My favorite time to smoke is 4th of July when our street has a big block party.  Sure others (and even I) have the regular grill going for the hamburgers and hotdogs for the kids and such.  But I get my smoker going long before the crowd shows up and get the ribs started.  As the...

    Right Kind of Smoke

    oldschool has you covered.  I'm relatively new to smoking as well, and I am also a stick burner.  I have read the "stickburning 101" guide and it has helped me tremendously.  I also now religiously pre-heat my wood chunks on the top of the fire box before placing them inside.  this works great. ...

    Gathering Protocall

    I've only been on this site for a little over a year, but I've never seen any announcements of Nor Cal gatherings.  It doesn't seem like there have been any recently.  This and the lack of responses to your original question makes me think that the group isn't very active as a group.  If someone...

    First Salmon Smoke on my MGS30 (with pics)

    Hey.  Where's the big finish?!     Dizuster:  you had a great Q-View start, and then left us hanging.     I'm betting it was sooo good that you couldn't wait, ate the whole thing, before taking more pics.

    Naming your smoker...

    I love the idea of naming my smoker. I've been giving it some thought and this thread has some great ideas and examples. When my kids were a little younger they (and myself too) got hooked on the cartoon series "Phineas and Ferb". My favorite character is evil Dr. Doofenshmirtz who was always...

    New guy saying Hi!

    Welcome. I'll underscore the feedback from others above. I'm also a relative newbie from Nor Cal. This site and the people here are fabulous. I've learned so much. Keep on smoking. Practice makes perfect.

    Greettings!

    Welcome Sid.  Nice to see you joining the forum and the NorCal group as well.  I live in the SF Bay Area (Redwood City), but I spent my college days at Chico State.  So, I know Butte County from that perspective.  I smoke with a Char-Griller Pro (CGP) with Side Fire Box (SFB).  I don't get to...

    First brisket with real time Qview!

    That looks amazing! I love the color an it looks so moist a juicy. If that was your first, not only did you nail it; but think about how easy it will be to do again for repeatable success.

    Newbie From California

    Welcome SmokeAssassin from a fellow Californian.  I look forward to seeing your posts and QView in the future.  BTW, as you've noticed, the therm that comes with your smoker is worthless.  You are on the correct path with a quality therm of your own. Happy smoking.
