    Quick question....

    That website I showed the screen shot from showed in a liquid cure (so curing from all sides), 1/4 inch cures in 2.4 hours, add 20% to make sure, so for sure in 3 hours it's saying it would be fully for sure cured. Seems so fast Click this below to make it bigger

    Tri-Tip with Melting Potatoes.

    That looks great, I love tri-tip, sometimes I do it like that, medium-rare in the middle, super awesome. Sometimes I'll 'low and slow' it on the smoker till it's falling apart, really great too. Gonna do one like the latter this weekend in fact. Those potatoes look killer good!!!!!

    OK did some tests today, it was just me being stupid lol, I had the empty water pan in there, so it was diverting the hot air flow around it, so the center of the racks were way cooler. Today I used my temp probe in the center and outside area of racks with and without the empty water pan...

    OK 90% of the jerky is finishing on the dehydrator now. I do see one weird thing with it. I think it's the drip pan diverting the heat maybe. Jerky that was close to the back or the door was done or 1/2 piece was done if it was sticking out towards there, All the jerky in the middle of the racks...

    One other thing too is air flow, I was just thinking about this and when I put my tube in my propane smoker, it always goes out. I have to have it above the flame, and the flame eats up all the oxygen so the tube suffocates. But anytime I place it in something where it has access to oxygen, it...

    bummer, I have a real brand long one and a knock brand shorter one, I do have to really LIGHT them REALLY good but then they keep smoking for hours really well. I use a propane torch to light up and keep the flame on for like 4 minutes till it's freaken super for sure hot and lit.

    That'd be great, yeah noticed it was insulated, that helps a LOT, Oh yeah Ohio gets some nasty weather too eh? Today is pretty nice here, sunny and 45 degrees, but soon it'll be in the teens or less for a high temp, and when the snow is blowing, the deck is solid ice and snow, I skip the BBQ...

    yeah cheap electronics...I don't expect it to last a long time, but it was super cheap. I still have my bigger smoker it's charcoal/propane, and it's great when the weather is less harsh. But , this might be nice to have it just keep a good temp instead of having to rush out and get the temp...
