Stumbled upon something
I love the hickory smoked sea salt from Maine Sea Salt. I haven't used it for smoking but loved it for grilling steaks and such.- kgb1

Chicken Trial #1 with QView
Wow. I just had flash-backs to high school chemistry class. Yep, I can see the benefits from all sides. And a lot of this comes down to personal preference (as in most things in life). I have grilled chicken parts for hundreds of years. And when I do basic grilling, I like keeping... -
Chicken Trial #1 with QView
Thanks dirtsailor. I think I'm leaning toward your opinion as well. I of course don't mind practicing the various combinations to find out for myself. "What?! I have to smoke more meat again?! Oh darn!!" I will say that so far, my favorite rib trial result was done with spritzing the... -
Chicken Trial #1 with QView
Thanks oldschool. I appreciate your perspective on brining. I have found it interesting how most all of the discussion on this forum for brining revolves around moisture and almost nothing about it actually flavoring the meat. That might be a good conversation for another thread... "Do you... -
Chicken Trial #1 with QView
Thanks C Farmer. I will say this; brining sure does add a lot of time and effort. If I can get the same moist results without the fuss, I'm willing to try. -

Chicken Trial #1 with QView
So, I wanted to try something new on the smoker. I wanted to try my hand at smoking whole chickens. After doing a lot of research on this site (reading lots of threads) I developed my plan and put it into action. Thank you to all who have gone before me and left a lot of great advice. Here's... -
My first time out--baby back ribs
Thanks jeoberg. I have not been able to get my hands on split logs yet. I have been using wood chunks. They're usually 2-3 inch cubed. But I have also started using a small chimney of lump charcoal to get things started and provide a more consistent bed of embers to keep the wood chunks going...- kgb1

My first time out--baby back ribs
Thanks baummiler for the encouragement. You are absolutely right. I did some of the mods as posted, had a few more trials under my belt, and smoked some awesome ribs for our 4th of July block party. This forum and all the people who post here are an amazing help. I appreciate it. Happy smoking.- kgb1

I would agree. I don't use a water pan in my CharGriller either and I have been doing some very nice smokes.- kgb1

Char-Griller Smokin Pro with firebox- Mods
I attached my flexible dryer vent to the bottom of the smoke stack with a ring clamp. And then I simply used a large hair pin (bobby pin) to clip the other end on the edge of the lid.- kgb1

WHAT IS EVERYBODY SMOKING, GRILLING OR STEWING FOR THE 4TH OF JULY?
We have an annual block party with the street closed to traffic and everything. I'll be grilling sausages and hot dogs for the kids. I'll be doing baby back ribs in the smoker. Can't wait. Kevin- kgb1

wood supply? for us suburban people?
Thanks cliff. I have a few good places here to buy wood chunks. BBQs Galore seems to be the best for both price and variety at about $1/lb. I was looking for opportunities for zero to near-zero costs. Like someone taking out their apple tree. I just don't run across those very often. Maybe I...- kgb1
