    Help me understand 'smoking' vs. 'cooking' temp ranges

    Thanks! I've already watched a few videos and am really looking forward to it. I did get the sear box! One of my first cooks will be a prime rib roast and I'll be using the sear box to finish it off.

    Can you sear on a MAK1?

    Does the Mak1 have a setting or plate/grill configuration where you can sear a steak?

    Help me understand 'smoking' vs. 'cooking' temp ranges

    Yep, the Camp Chef Woodwind is a leading candidate. The difference between almost all of them comes down to smaller features, and not always comparable. Just gotta decide...

    Help me understand 'smoking' vs. 'cooking' temp ranges

    Do any of them have a secondary burn chamber that is fed and fired at a lower rate to produce smoke while you also achieve your desired cooking temp with your primary burn chamber? Give the people what they want.

    Help me understand 'smoking' vs. 'cooking' temp ranges

    I'm shopping for my first pellet smoker. Currently using a WSM. Many of these pellet smokers feature a "smoking" tempe setting which seems to be lower than where I've traditionally smoked at (225 - 275). Or you can turn it up to a specific temp setting. I get it that a pellet smoker produces...

    (newbie) Trying to figure out this whole charcoal thing

    I am considering this smoker. What are the dimensions of the grates? There is a lot of misinformation online.

    Where can I get 3' ET732 replacement probes?

    Actually the amazen probes do not come as a pair as I originally suggested. Darn, thought I was gonna get a great deal.

    Where can I get 3' ET732 replacement probes?

    Just a follow-up... I did order the hybrid probes because they are well reviewed on Amazon, but one of the two gave me lots of issues. It was intermittent which made it even more frustrating. Amazon gave me my money back so I am going to go back to the original probes and will try to order from...

    New Dyna-Glo vertical offset smoker

    I'd use it as a test drive to see how well it heats and holds temps. That means firing it up, getting the smoke going (I have to crank my propane up at the start to get the smokewood going), then back it down as needed to cruise at 225 orc250.

    I'm a bit disappointed

    Works for me. Which browser are you using?

    Good simple jalapeno popper recipe for beginner?

    So I made a few today, and I guess I'm not a big cream cheese fan. I used the chive (?) flavor and mixed in some shredded cheddar. I tried one warm and it was too much of that warm, soft cream cheese. I need to add something to give it more body and thus cut down on the volume of cream cheese...

    Good simple jalapeno popper recipe for beginner?

    I will be making some tomorrow but don't have a popper rack. Suggestions? Just lay them on their side on a piece of foil or foil pan?

    Good simple jalapeno popper recipe for beginner?

    Outstanding recommendations guys. I think my plan will be to prep the peppers as the meat is getting ready to come off, then swap the peppers for the met and bring the temp up to 275 for the peppers while my meat rests. All of it looks good. Thanks again!

    Good simple jalapeno popper recipe for beginner?

    Say I'm doing some ribs or butt. How long do the filled jalapenos need to be in the smoker? I'm assuming I work backwards and try to have them coming off when the meat is ready to be eaten? I like the idea of mixing in a little cheddar!

    Good simple jalapeno popper recipe for beginner?

    It's time to branch out from just focusing on the meat and I want to start with making some jalapeno poppers. Any suggestions for a simple recipe? I tend to be put off by recipes calling for lots of ingredients - my palette isn't sophisticated enough for that anyway :D. I will only be making a...

    Brisket chilli question

    Smoke the brisket and take whatever good slices come out and set those aside. Then chop up the rest, burnt ends, etc. At least that is what I did and it was awesome.

    Brisket frustration

    I haven't done a brisket in years as my last 2 were dry. Been so long I forget what I may have done wrong. Probably just what is already stated in this thread. Maybe this thread is what I need.
