    Had any Burnt Fingers or Pulled Flat lately? Brisket Q-vew

    Ive heard of burnt ends before, but never really paid any attention to what they were... till recently. Ive got 80# of brisket to smoke coming up soon, in the past I always sliced the point, not this time!!! I decided Im gonna take all of the points and make burnt ends, or maybe even some burnt...

    My first smoke and 1st attempt at Qview

    Coacher.. my smoker is pretty much identical to yours. I do have a propane log starter though, I noticed yours didnt have one. IMO I think these are very helpful to maintain an even temp, I use mine to start the logs I throw in there, and then once the first logs burn down to charcoal, I turn...

    Hello from Kansas

    Thanks for the pic! Pretty much like I imagined. I enjoy working with metal so I will probably make my own. Ive got 80 pounds of brisket to smoke here soon, probably wont have it done by then, but im curious as to how the plate changes the temps. Im from Haysville, just south of Wichita. I...

    Hello from Kansas

    Ok I checked out the Horizon pics, looks pretty simple. I can probably fab my own, so no hurry on the pic, I think it installs with the smaller holes towards the fire, with the end that is bent right up against the firebox? Im also assuming it sits flat, but how much space is left below the...

    Hello from Kansas

    By the way... did you happen to get the heat management plate? If you did could you snap a pic of it, Just curious to see how it installs and how big it is.

    Hello from Kansas

    Necessary? .... No I wouldnt think so, its more of a personal preference. But... I tend to think of a oil wipedown as sealing the interior, kinda like seasoning a cast iron pan. Thanks for the info on the Okie Joe-Yoder connection, I didnt know any history behind that. Good luck with your...

    Hello from Kansas

    Congrats on the Yoder purchase. Those are dead ringers for the original Oklahoma Joe units. They are 1/4" thick which helps hold the heat. One thing you will notice is that if you try smoking in cold weather, make sure to run a super hot fire for at least an hour, maybe longer. It seems that if...

    Stolen!

    Cool, thanks! Hope they catch em, but better yet I hope you get your equipment back! Ill keep an eye out for one in south central Ks. Seems like Im hearing more and more stories of things like this. A sign of the times I guess with so many people out of work, but that still dont make it...

    Stolen!

    That floor is not a dead giveaway, there are many out there with the same black/white checkerboard. Here in Wichita a church group had their equipment trailer stolen, about $20k worth of audio stuff, amazingly they got the trailer back and most of the audio stuff, so dont lose hope. You are...

    Menu Ideas ????

    Smoked stuff should definetly be on the menu, how about a good ol chicken fried steak? Ive been watching Man Vs. Food and a lot of the places he goes to are located near college's. And they do a "extreme" challenge like a 6# hamburger, or something BLAZING hot. You want it so that 98% of the...

    Home made smoker trailer for a bicycle

    Lol, nah it works like this... This thing will smoke right along as you ride, sooo if I plan it just right and take off at the beginning of the pack, the rolling meat smoker lulls the other racers into just following me. When the brisket is ready I pull over and start servin up, when their...

    Home made smoker trailer for a bicycle

    In the three or so times I had it fired up... especially the first time when I got it over 500 degrees, the tire never really got hot enough. It is close, but I believe there is just enough space to keep it from melting things. I do have it pinned to the trailer though, pull five pins and its...

    LOL I dont think I can peddle that fast! But I did ride it in a parade last weekend, and I couldnt go 5 feet without everyone asking what was for lunch! Maybe next time I need to throw ABT's to the crowd??

    Need advice and encouragement for July 3 smoke for 100+

    I would suggest smoking in different stages, then vac bagging and freezing. This way you will have the time to do each batch up right and not feel pressured by time constraints. Especially if you borrow a smoker to do the whole smoke session at once... you will be overwhelmed! Doing it in...
