    Having trouble getting smoker above 300 degrees

    275 gallon tank smoker

I also cut off part of the wings and throw that in the pot with celery, onions and seasonings, cover with water and cook for 3-4 hours. While the turkey...

    Thermo Works Smoke

    I wish the transmitter and receiver were switched. I'd rather have the bigger display to look at and the ability to program remotely. I hope the alarms will sound on the receiver at least. I don't need them at the smoker. Edit: they do. I'll probably wait til 2017 for the WiFi version.

    Electric burner question.

    I use a single burner countertop model and put a small cast iron skillet on it with a big chunk of wood. Plenty of smoke and heat. My brother sent me an old PID he bought from a cheesemaker supply company that just has an outlet on the back that I'm going to try next instead of having to fiddle...
