    Maiden voyage for the Bradley

    Did the cheese with applewood for about 1 hour and 40. Smells great! Maybe I'll get some pics of the meatloaf tomorrow.

    Maiden voyage for the Bradley

    First chance I've had since I got the thing and seasoned it on Tuesday last. Cold smoking some cheese as we speak. It's about 10C outside, 50F, and I have a tray of ice in there and the main element unplugged, seems to be holding around 80F. There are chunks of Black Diamond old cheddar...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    When I was a kid my Mum had arthritis in her hands bad enough that she couldn't do much at all some days, so, from about the age of 9, I became her hands in the kitchen. Pretty soon I got interested, so by the time I was about 15 I was cooking full meals on my own and starting to experiment. I...

    Hi Folks

    Went to Cabela's today, poked around, hemmed and hawed, talked to a couple of guys and finally went for ... wait for it ... the Bradley! The second guy I talked to owns both and prefers the Bradley for the following reasons: 1. Analog control. If the digital control unit fails it's big bucks...

    Gaskets

    Another question - what can I use for a gasket around the lid on my old Char Broil offset? By the amount of smoke that pours out around it I know that I'm losing a lot of my heat through that gap as well.

    Canadian sources

    Hi guys. Where do you go for things like the AMNPS, good thermometers etc. in Canada?

    Signed up but received nothing.

    Is there a problem maybe with a Canadian email address?

    Same here with the fragments and dust.

    Royal Oak Lump Charcoal

    I don't know if the Royal Oak we get here is the same as what you get stateside, but I have not been very happy with it. It's very peaky; starts about the same as Kingsford briquettes in the chimney, then gets very hot, too hot to even sear over, and then drops off rapidly. You get a very narrow...

    Cold Smoke Generator for the MES

    Still leaning towards the MES because the Bradley seems kind of small inside. The racks are only 11" x 13" - couldn't get too many ribs in there!

    Cold Smoke Generator for the MES

    I have a feeling I'm going to be placing an order or two once I get my smoker.

    Cold Smoke Generator for the MES

    For those of us less mechanically inclined, has anybody tried Bradley's cold smoke generator on a MES?

    Timberjack's Smoked Spice

    For the last few years the wife and I have been going to the Brainerd, Minnesota area for the great golf. Just north of Brainerd is a little town called Pequot Lakes, which is home to a great BBQ joint called Timberjack's. Every time we go we buy all we can get of their Smoked Spice. I don't...

    Hi Folks

    Thanks for the welcome Gary, I know it's true what they say about Southern hospitality. I mentioned earlier that people here seem to prefer the MES to the Bradley; is that strictly because of the Bisquette system? Is it possible to circumvent that and use the tube feeder with the Bradley? I ask...

    Hi Folks

    Good to know, thanks Phil. Is it getting chilly in Illinois yet?

    Hi Folks

    Thanks Rabbithutch. Once I get my smoker and play with it a little I will revisit this. Birthday's Friday, but I won't have time to shop until the following weekend.
