    Lumberjack pellets in GMG

    I've ran well over a ton of lumberjack 100% hickory through my GMG DB. Only pellet I'll use.

    Locust, Black walnut, Beech

    Love hickory, oak, and beechnut, although beechnut is not too common in my area. Tons of black locusts and black walnut. I've used BW on a few cooks. First time was on pulled pork. Very heavy smoke profile. Too heavy in fact. I still use it on longer cooks, but only use a single split mixed...

    Memories of days gone by remember when

    I've got my dad's sausage recipe book when he and my uncle's would try different batches of sausage after butchering a hog or three. The dates are in the early to mid '60's. It's funny to read the notes as they tried to find the correct amount of spices. Several are simply "X" out, but some...

    I've used cherry for whole hog to brisket to prime rib. Love it. Just scored 3 cord of log length cherry. Should last me a few yrs.

    Whole hog question...

    I've done many whole hogs on my pit. 250 gal reverse flow.... Some skin up, some skin down. Always fantastic. Either way I protect the belly with heads of cabage. However, I've have a request to do skin side down. Here's the part I've never done before. They want the belly filled with...

    NEW Santa Maria Trailer Pit

    Always been interested in that type of pit. I've cooked many a hole hog on a cinder block rotisserie pit, but not quite the same thing.

    Who has a new-ish Peoria Custom Cookers Backyard model on a trailer?

    Yep. That's the stuff. I'd go 1/4” thick.

    Bark on the Logs

    Like above, if it loose or about to fall off, I'll toss it aside. Otherwise, bark is wood also.

    How much can you fit into a GMG Daniel Boone?

    Ribs take up a lot of room without a rib rack. I can get two 16# Packers in my DB, but don't think the second rack would fit as it doesn't slide in, but has legs. Highly doubtful a rib rack would fit on top of the second rack. I could measure the clearance if you like. I usually use the second...

    Probably a dumb newbie pellet smoker question but.......

    Mine is under a overhang on my deck. If it's a light rain it stays dry, but a heavy rain with wind will soak it. I've cooked in rain storms and snow storms. Never a issue.

    Why are pit fireboxes typically offset? Education needed...

    Two different styles of offsets. Traditional has the smoke stack on the opposite side of the firebox. Most require tuning plates to keep the side to side temps consistent. The reverse flow offset has the smoke stack on the same side of the firebox. There's a plate just above the firebox...

    Who has a new-ish Peoria Custom Cookers Backyard model on a trailer?

    Don't have one, but a standard trailer hitch height is 17" . If your in the ballpark, I wouldn't worry about it.
