    Where to buy?

    I hope this is the right section to post this. I didn't see anywhere that seemed more appropriate... I have decided on the 24" CCSV, and set out to find a good deal on it. I found it for $299 and thought that was a pretty good deal until I saw in this thread that it goes for ~$250 (the post...

    first try - salmon with Q-View

    Thanks! I liked the shrimp 'ok', I just like it better as scampi is all. The salmon on the other hand disappeared REALLY fast

    first try - salmon with Q-View

    First try since reading ANY thing about how to smoke. Did some Salmon and Shrimp. Brined the salmon in a salt/maple syrup/black pepper/garlic powder brine for 1.5 hrs, then smoked for 6 hrs in my Big Chief. added the shrimp (brushed with garlic/butter mix before smoking) when the salmon was...

    need some advice

    ok, I'm trying to decide which smoker I want to replace my Big Chief with. I think I have it narrowed down to 3 that look very different to my inexperienced eye. I'd initially been attracted to the Cookshack smokette II, but then I started poking around here, and checked out the GOSM and Camp...

    Backs in the rack again!

    here in Neb we call those 'prime rib'. very good grub, I'd been wondering how they'd do in a smoker. Looks really tasty!

    got the meat...

    Thank you. I got it for $30, so I can't complain too much, but I have to get SOMETHING that will get hotter. Thought this one might still work for smoking fish...(?) Edit: wow! you guys are quick. Thanks for the welcome everyone. Kookie: I did put up a windbreak, even ran it in my...

    got the meat...

    guess this is where I'm suppose to introduce myself. So a big "hello" from Nebraska! I just bought a half a beef, and have a Luehr-Jensen Big chief, but for whatever reason it wont get above 155F (it's second hand - I don't think there's much recourse), so I'm looking at smokers now since I...
