    Chips, Chuncks or Pellets?

    I currently use chips which I bought for my Smoke Hollow, but now that I am almost finished with the WOPR I was wondering if I should use something different. Waht are the benefits \ downfalls to each? I have had good burns with the chips so far but would chunks or pellets work better in a...

    The WOPR

    So I am thinking of 2 external additions for the WORP. 1. Since the door opens left to right, I was thinking of moutning a shelf on the left side of the fridge to set things on. Any ideas on a mount for this. I was thinking of the standard shelf mount you usually see on grills. I guess I...

    Fridge smoker - pics

    That spread looks beautiful. I have been meaning to do a cabbage, it sounds delicious but the wife doesn't think so. Oh well, more for me I guess. Can't wait til my fridge smoker looks that "seasoned".

    Mile High Rub and Sauce

    Dillon, is that the same as the Frisco competition. I would love to be able to make a que fine enough to enter but I am def still in the amatuer stage. I'd be up for a local amatuer comp. We should work on getting this together.

    Mile High Rub and Sauce

    Used to frequent that intersection alot. When I was still in school that was the only place to go for lunch. It has changed quite a bit since then, there is a Lowes where the Walmart used to be.

    The WOPR

    I imagine once I get the vents in i'll have a better burn. I did notice that within the first hour the chips were not only burnt to almost ash but they were glowing red hot. I am sure some of this is due to the amount of heat the burner was putting outt. Once I have the vents and temp...

    The WOPR

    Getting the vents cut is my next step. I bought a 3in hole saw but once I got home I realized the attachment I have for my drill doesn't fit the blade i bought. I need to get back to home depot to get the rights peice. I have also rethought the peices i will use for the vent so i am going to...

    Mile High Rub and Sauce

    Not sure I remember a KFC at that intersection. Then again I didn't live in the area until 92 . I always forget that SHHS was built back in the 80's, or was it 70's. I'm a little younger, went to EHS from 93 - 97. Young or Old - The smell of smoke still gets us all.

    To thaw or not to thaw. That is the question.

    Seems like a silly question, but I can't be the first to wonder. Other than the obvious, that an unthawed bird won't take as much flavor from the brine as a thawed one, is there any danger in not thawing it prior to the brine. To me it would seem that it could speed up the thaw time by...

    Mile High Rub and Sauce

    What year did you graduate. I went to Eaglecrest, just 5 miles up the road. My parents used to own the flower shop in the Albertsons shopping center at smoky and buckley.
