    Popping my cherry on a butt…

    It stalled just prior to 160, but finally got there. Now it’s in the pan and covered as per instructions, and I’ll wait for an alarm at 205… Putting together the finishing sauce from the sticky on the forums, may as well try that too. Planning to use it on half the pulled pork, for a...

    Popping my cherry on a butt…

    Using one of Jeff’s recipes, I put this small butt on at about 6:30 this morning. Just waiting to hit 160, almost there..then into the pan, and cover it til 205.

    Grilled chicken on smoker, first try.

    I think that’s the basis of what she used. It came out well, maybe not the juiciest, but not dry. I used the Super Smoke until they actually stalled about 147 ( or I was just being impatient, and I bumped the temp a little. Took them off at 158ish. Next time I won’t use a pan as they got no...

    Grilled chicken on smoker, first try.

    The wife already had some chicken breasts marinating, so why not smoke em? 225-250 with super-smoke on the Traeger til 160. Now they’re resting, which I read should allow them to reach 165(?)

    Rookie setup question

    So I have an ironwood 650, and on recs from here got an Inkbird irf4s. One of the probes doesn’t have a point, so my sharp-as-a-hammer mind says that should be the one for smoker temp, instead of relying on the one in the smoker that everyone says isn’t accurate. Would this be a good place to...

    Hi from a rookie

    Thanks. so I have a pork butt just under 4lbs. I'm thinking one probe in the center, and another for 'oven' temp to be sure I keep that close. According to Jeff's eCourse, I want to smoke at a steady 240. I'm sure it won't just stay at 240, but fluctuate, which makes sense. The oven probe should...

    SV Tri Tip at bachelor pad.

    Looks really good. Hoping to try my first smoke Fri/Sat. Gin I can have an opinion on. Hendricks all the way. They have a SE ‘Orbium’ variation that we like a lot. A customer bought me a bottle of something else that was really good too. Monkey-something? How many G&T’s are required for the...

    Hi from a rookie

    Got it today. I hate instructions badly translated from Chinese:) Anyway, I have 4 probes, one is obviously for the smoker temp. And I see the ‘clips’ probably to hold it in place. Does it make any difference where I ‘aim’ the probe inside the smoker? Top/bottom/front/back? Planning first...

    Devonshire cream tea snack

    Thanks for that tip. I’m sure she’ll want to try it at home, so we’ll have to see what we can find.

    Devonshire cream tea snack

    Now you’re talking!! My wife is from PR, so all the English goodies were new to her, and scones with clotted cream and tea are two of her favorites!! We buy ‘real’ tea from Amazon :)

    Hi from a rookie

    Thanks, I’ve picked up on that already, but not researched too much. The grill came with a probe, and I did the ice water calibration this morning. As with anything, opinions on what’s needed are likely all over the map. So, a single unit with multiple probes to measure both food temp and actual...

    Hi from a rookie

    Hi all. Just registered here, Hoping/needing to learn a lot. I have a Traeger Ironwood 650 I'm learning on, with mostly just my wife and I. We have family reasonably close, and I'm planning to use them as guinea pigs as the learning progresses. I'm not someone who grew up around grills/smokers...
