    First Smoke Stressful - Second Smoke a Breeze!

    Still doesn't seem logical to me.  Infrared might cause some additional heating, but I don't think that much infrared radiation can make it to the top of the cabinet when it is full of meat.  I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just saying I can't fathom it. That being said, I am considering what...

    First Smoke Stressful - Second Smoke a Breeze!

    Thanks, I'll look into that, but it doesn't make much sense at first thought.  The metal can't get hotter than its surroundings. I can understand that it makes the temperatures wrong for a while after the door is opened/closed though.  I may drill a hole in a block of wood and hang it from the...

    First Smoke Stressful - Second Smoke a Breeze!

    Hopefully, it'll be more than that when I'm done.  This project is drawing inspiration from the HeaterMeter  for charcoal BBQ's and smokers.  However, my goal is to remove the need for the Arduino MCU, add additional temperature channels, and also cut the temperature back to ensure that any meat...

    Brisket too big?

    I was curious about this and figured I'd read a couple of brisket threads until I saw something about this issue mentioned.  Do you cut the meat then sear the ends where you made the cut?  I've yet to smoke a brisket, is it obvious where the thin transitions to a point?

    Already thinking about next smoke (Deer)

    I've done deer meat relatively recently (backstrap and leg roasts) on a grill, wrapped in bacon and they turned out fantastic.  I grilled them until they felt medium to the touch, I didn't use a temperature probe. A couple of years ago, my father in law gave me a deer roast.  I marinated it in...

    Advice for multiple meats

    I did a little testing yesterday morning to measure the temperature difference between the top and bottom of my propane smoker.  The top rack was within a couple of degrees of my bottom rack, so I'm not concerned about temperature differences between the two locations. That said, I put my...

    First Smoke Stressful - Second Smoke a Breeze!

    I did my first smoke on Jan 1st (two 3 lb butts and 2 chickens).  By the end of the day I just wanted it to be over.  Turned out very well, but it just stressed me the heck out.  I did my second smoke yesterday, 7 lb butt and two chickens and it was a breeze.  My only regret is not starting the...
