    Pre-partytime prep

    Thanks for the tip..may have to check that one out.  During seasoning, I was able to keep temps, from one of my digital therms, at about 230.  hopefully loaded up it will stay about the same.   Fortunately, I research pretty much anything I invest time and or $$ in, so I did read that from...

    Pre-partytime prep

    Well, The butts are done!  11 and 12.5 hours.  As said elsewhere "in its own good time".  I am amazed with how these turned out.  I had done one other smaller picnic on this smoker, and while it was good, these two are amazing by comparison.  After resting, the bone just slid out clean and I...

    Pre-partytime prep

    Well, I am glad I did modifications.  In particular floating the charcoal pan separate from body.  Ash was choking after 6 hours but was able to lift the body off and restart the charcoal.  Up to that point, it has been steady (when spritzing anyway) tempwise at about 235.  Looking pretty good...

    Pre-partytime prep

    I almost bought another smoker tonite so I would be able to do this all in one shot.  Decided against it at the moment, but if this works out according to hoyle, I may be stepping up size wise pretty quick.  The family and friends drool every time i mention smoking anything so I don't think...

    Pre-partytime prep

    Have a remote thermometer I picked up today so that will help I'm sure.  As far as equipment, its a grillpro version of an ECB.  Mods are all done and did another test run with a fatty today to make sure all the mods worked as I wanted.  Got a bit hot today, but the legs I made for the charcoal...

    Pre-partytime prep

    Well, I took a look at my schedule and realized that I have a soccer game tomorrow night (coach my sons team), so.....I guess I will be pulling an overnighter to get the butts done before the game.  Two 10#er's, figuring about 14 hours.  Any tips on how to catch cat naps between refuelings?

    New member, old smoker

    I actually sort of did this last week.  We make these things with pickle spears and wrap them with turkey slices and cream cheese.  I had finished a couple chickens and still had some good heat, so I was looking around for different stuff to smoke.  They did turn out pretty good.  A little...

    Adding sections to an ECB look a like

    Well, i found another one of the smokers I bought, a Grillpro as i find out now, and am contemplating buying it for extra grates and such. The thought also came to mind that i could add another center section to the stack for some more capacity, but am not sure if that would really work.  In my...

    Pre-partytime prep

    Well, I have apparently hooked the kids on smoked stuff, so this friday we are having a party for the oldest who turns 15 and wants pulled pork and ribs.  Yay!  I am figuring on 20# of pulled pork and 20# of ribs.  My only problem is size limitations of my smoker.  I know...rough problem....  My...

    Some sunday yard bird

    Everyone was yellin for some chicken so I did a couple can chickens.  Man I hate when they give me reason to smoke something!  Both were rubbed with a lemon pepper rub.  One had orange juice with onions and garlic, the other was coke with onions and garlic.  Didn't stuff the necks this time...

    Pork Butt taking a long time.

    That would be my guess.  Wouldn't hurt to throw another therm into it and see if the temp on the MES is off.  Think of it as an "excuse" to smoke something else!
