    cedar plank cooking

    I'm with Squeezy on this one. I guess I have an aversion after my brother in law served us up a bunch of grilled chicken. One bite, and I knew I wasn't gonna get rid of that flavor for a long time. He was beaming all over the place at the great idea he had come up with to use pine for...

    New Smoking-Meat.com Logo in Progress

    I like what HawgHeaven did with it. My only real suggestion is to have them work on the smoker a little bit. It looks like a style break, which is one reason it stands on its own too much. (Look at the lines on it compared to the lines around the rest of the elements.) Make them cartoonize it a...

    Charcoal Smoker Modifications

    Glad I could help. If you try anything different, and it helps, let me know. I have discovered that my warming rack gets about 10 degrees warmer than the grate level. This might actually come in handy for cooking different meats at the same time. I'm gonna play around with that idea a little.

    Char-Griller Smokin Pro 830 with side firebox

    I found it at Lowes. When I back for more, they were sold out. But I was told that if you go to a place that sells gas furnaces, they should have some. Otherwise, wait until fall, and then go look in the furnace section at Lowes. I love it, but I found that you really need to clean it good...

    Char-Broil Double-Door Smoker vs. Char-Griller Smokin' Pro

    I have the Char-Griller, and love it so far. But I had to make some modifications to get it right. You'll probably have to make some regardless of what you end up with. What I like about it is its size and capacity. The warming rack adds a lot of room, especially when you need different...

    Dr. Pepper BBQ Sauce

    I drove the transit buses for the WalMart shareholders this week. Man, do they go all out. They got free samples of all this new stuff that hasn't hit the shelves yet. One of these was Dr. Pepper BBQ Sauce. I hinted, then begged, then pleaded, then attempted to knock over an old lady, just to...

    3-2-1 Memorial day ribs a bust, help!! (warning - long post :)

    Do NOT be afraid to open the cooking chamber. I have a side fire box, as well. Make a few mods to help direct and retain the heat in the cooking chamber. But get some oven thermometers to place around on your grate so you can check them every 30 minutes to an hour. After a few smokes, you will...

    New Terminology Contest

    "vittle pics" made me laugh. (Sorry, I forgot who posted that one, but I liked it). "Eye-Q" is pretty clever, too.

    Smoking is ruining my life!

    Thanks a lot, guys! All I wanted when I started here was a little advice to help me not ruin so many ribs. But nooooo... you had to teach me how to make the best. Now I get stuck smoking 5 racks for my law school society picnic. Not huge, but expected about 30 adults, plus kids. Couldn't just...

    Firt time smoker/poster

    Wow. First time smoking and going for the brisket right off the bat. That's brave. Let me know how it turns out. Maybe you'll inspire to try my first. I have been doing it for about six months and haven't gotten brave enough yet. I tried a couple of chuck roasts, but they kept coming out tough...

    Wood Smoker Modifications

    I found that the flex duct worked great as well. I turned the pan upside down and drilled holes in it to help disperse the heat and smoke more evenly. It has worked really well. Also, if you are looking to close up some of the leaks, see if your Lowes carries any furnace seal. It's a nylon rope...

    Anybody ever smoke wings?

    Those were some good looking wings. I decided to try some a few smokes ago, and loved em. Except that I put way too much spice in the rub. I actually had to rinse them of before devouring them. But the meat was the best I'd ever tasted. I tried them again, with a better rub, and again was very...
