    Problems controlling temp with DigiQ

    So I am open to any suggestions. I have loved my digiQ from the very start! It has literally saved me Hours upon hours of watching the WSM because I could never get it to stay at a constant temp without it. Today I fired up the smoker with my normal routine. I circle the fire ring with coals...

    Thanks. I never thought of that with Pork. Guess I should have given that a little more thought!

    Pork and beef at the same time question

    I will be smoking some butts and brisket at the same time this weekend. Which would you put on the top rack of the smoker? We will be using a WSM 22. There won't be enough room for all of it on one rack, just didn't know if pork or beef should go on top? My thoughts would be the pork as I...

    Sunday smoke!!

    Does anyone know if it is possible to take a picture with an iPad and insert it into a thread on here? It keeps asking me for the "image URL". Not quite sure how to do it, and I know these threads arent true unless you have pictures to prove it!

    AMPS and WSM

    Hello all- I got my wish and received a new AMPS for Christmas.  I have a 22"WSM, and was wondering how many of you actually use the AMPS in your WSM while hot smoking meat.  I asked for the AMPS mainly to start smoking cheese.  I figure on using the lower grate for the smoke and just use the...

    Question about DigiQ DX with WSM

    Thanks for the reply guys.  We will have to move the clip to the center of the grate for the next smoke.  We did notice that we got it to close to the meat the first time we put the meat in, but caught the mistake before it got to out of hand!  Otherwise I sure like the ease of controlling...

    Question about DigiQ DX with WSM

    I just recently got my DX and used it for the first time.  The Pit Probe comes with a clip that can clip onto the grate of a rack in the smoker.  Doesn't this affect the temperature reading when you are clipping a metal clip to a steel grate in the smoker?  The DX seemed to work flawlessly on...

    Too much charcoal smoke.

    First off, I didn't take any offense to the search engine post, as I have seen it used plenty of times before.  I also have done enough reading on here to know that there would be some other folks that were willing to give their advice.  Anyways - I have never lived in Texas before, and was...

    Too much charcoal smoke.

    The smoke was a heavy white smoke.  Once I had the coals burning better towards the end, I was able to achieve the TBS that is desired.  My thoughts on the wood is that Mesquite wood is Mesquite wood, but the only other variable that I can think of is the wood I used yesterday was significantly...
