    Pit Boss Charcoal Pellets

    I bought a bag last week and waited for my new heat sensor to show-up. Loaded the hopper and the PB for an hour on high to clear the auger and threw some store bought sausages on at 225 for 45 minutes, IT 160*. Tasted like they came off a charcoal grill. Just a different way to achieve a taste...

    WHOA !! Lightening show tonight....

    Dave, our 8 year old ACD we rescued from the pond is so terrified of storms we bought one of those thunder shirts. Helps a lot but not totally.

    Something I've never tried.

    Thanks. Everything is better w/ cheese and bacon. But I'm still a little foggy on rapping. Is that a left rap or a right rap?:emoji_laughing:

    Briner bucket / Whole chicken In Pop's Brine

    I love brined poultry, but I ain't got that brining bucket. And if I did, I don't have frig space so I got creative. A cut down a 5 & 1/2 gal. kitty litter tub, 2 plastic bags, 4@ 1gal blocks of ice and a good camp cooler. After 24hrs the therm was at 40* while holding a 12# gobbler. Works for...

    Something I've never tried.

    I didn't know if the "crunch" can from the bacon or the end of the hot dog:emoji_laughing:

    Something I've never tried.

    I've never been a great fan of hot dogs. I know they rank right up there with burgers, apple pie and ice cream. Yesterday the grandkids wanted bacon rapped dogs. My number 3 son does them all the time on his gas grill, so he walked me through it, teaching this old dog a new trick. Warmed up the...

    Just Had To Try

    Lately I've been having some major temp swings. I'm not talking the usual plus/minus 20*, I'm talking upwards of 100* and burning a hell of a lot of pellets. Spent a lot of time playing w/ "P" settings trying to level out the auger feed/timimg, allowing about an hour per adjustment without much...

    Just Had To Try

    With my PB 820 suffering from a temperature disorder for the last 3 runs that made things quiet interesting, I just couldn't bring myself to fire up my Char-Griller-COS for the weekend. Knowing that I was going to have some wild temp swings I went ahead with my plan to do some beer-can chickens...

    Big Butt, for me.

    Well I salvaged it after 7 hrs on the pitt. Went out after the 1st hr. to spray apple juice and the grill was roaring at 375*, had it set at 225xp4. I opened the Pitt and readjust it to 200*x7. Sure am glad I'm cool under pressure. #%*(&^%$##%&((((*&^%%. I spent the next 6 hrs checking on the...

    Big Butt, for me.

    Rubbed down this little 10# butt w/ dark brown sugar and Tony's yesterday. Pulled it out of the frig at 0330hrs this morning for "resting". My freshly cleaned 820 has warmed up. Hit the pit at 0600hrs. Here's to a long day w/ a couple of cold ones.

    Bug Invation Pt. 2

    Being a little anal and O.C.D., I just can't leave things disassembled in my shop. Mainly my PB 820. So on my quest to bug proof my smoker I bought a 1'x2' piece of 1/8" hardware cloth and cut 1 piece for the hoppers electronics and 1 for the smoke stack. Used PVC tape to hold it still while I...

    Bug Invation

    Thanks, but I have the exact cover for the CG w/ side box by CG for her. And they still like to gather under the cover. Just a PIA.

    Bug Invation

    For the last few years we've had a serious problem with stink bugs and lady bug. I've learned to use the shop-vac to clean my Char-Griller off-set before each use. And NO, smoked stinkbugs do not taste like chicken. Now that I've added my Pit Boss 820, thought I'd get a head start before the bug...

    P.P. sammies?

    I've pondered this question for a long time. Who in the world ever came up w/ the idea of putting coleslaw on a Pork sammie. Tried it once, not again. Martin
