    What's in the GMG Fruitwood Blend Pellets???

    You know that's a really good point. I bought some Hickory Traeger pellets a while back and I was very disappointed in the favor of the smoke. I actually stopped using them. Thanks for the heads up. Too bad I missed Todd's April special. Warmer weather is on its way and I'm going to need some...

    What's in the GMG Fruitwood Blend Pellets???

    I use pellets in my AMPS and usually buy from Todd but I found a 28lbs bag of “Fruitwood” blend Green Mountain pellets at a local small business for $19.99. I thought it was a great deal but I want to know more about what is actually in the pellets before I buy. I searched the internet but found...

    General Electric upright freezer build

    Hey...looks like a good machine you got there. Just curious, where are those racks from? I'm thinking they look like the original freezer racks?? I've seen guys recommend not using the original freezer racks because of the coatings used were not intended for heat purposes. I just thought I would...

    First Time Makin' Bacon w/Qview

    Hey all, I've been wanting to do this for a while and since I was off on paternity leave I thought I might as well knock it out. I should state that I did not have access to any pork bellies so I used the fattest part of a butt, I think guys are calling this Buck Board Bacon (not sure on this)...

    Metal type & propane question

    I've had little to no rust issues. I accredit this to a good seasoning with olive oil. That and my smoker never sits for much more than a week or 2! With that said if I had the money at the time I would have used stainless. Although I would think it would be much harder to bend when it came to...
