I got the Sportsman 1100 & I found in my area/temps. P5 setting is the highest I will go on my grill/smoker to maintain my temp set point.
At a P5 setting & controller set to my desired temp it will maintains the temp I set at the controller.
I always start my grill on a P4 which is the...
Ok something like 12 or 13 hours to smoke, lol somewhere abouts in there.
I finally got a batch of thick cut jerky done.
Whew! Wore me out! Lol I don't know why I insist in baby sitting my Pit Boss.
It pretty much stays spot on temperature up until the 11-12hour smoke time, then it starts...
Thanks. Yes I should of mentioned that I got the main chamber temp @180°f
Then I am smoking the jerky in the side smoker box & it has been averaging 140°-155°f in the side smoker box.
For any 1 wanting to know, I'm using 5lbs of eye of round roast. Cut 3/8" thick. Using another LEM jerky kit. Peppered.
Plan on smoking 8-10 hours at 180°f for that real smoky flavor in my Pit Boss Sportsman 1100.
I also just picked up 6 bags of Lumber Jack pellets to try.
Guys & gals at 5pm tonight this has been marinating/curing for 24hours.
Do I need to smoke it tonight? Or can I waith till the next morning at which it will have been curing for 36hours.
Is this too long to wait to smoke?
Thanks.
I would say try different brands of pellets. I like lumberjack & bear mountain.
I think they render more/better smoke.
You could add a cold smoke attachment like the Bella or smoke daddy smoke generator.
Or as others mentioned get some smoke tubes. I got 3 smoke tubes & a tray I use.
Yeah I see a lot of guys on here that can make a mean meal on the kettle. I'm sure if I use it enough I could figure it out.
Maybe make me a custom jobby out of it. Cast iron grates & such. Maybe add my Thermoworks billows kit to it .
That kettle I got has 3 vents on the bottom. Each 1 of the vents have 3 holes & Lil aluminum daisy wheels to adjust air flow.
I will check out the lid vent for a letter.
Here you go!
Thanks.
