    Problems with my ABTs

    I use a butane torch similar to the one below to crisp the bacon after they are smoked.  I will crisp the bacon as soon as the flame hits it.  As others have said, scrape the inside with a spoon.  If you scrape it well there will be almost no heat.

    New Thermapen - BIG

    You are correct, the color does not have anything to do with how it functions. This is taken from Thermapen's website. Originally, we manufactured the Thermapen in gray only. Later we added all the food-safety color-coding versions. Many people in the food industry use color coding to...

    Bradley or Masterbuilt?

    How about a combo? Master Built with a Bradley smoke generator. If I am going to be around home I feed it wood chips myself. If I need to leave or want to smoke overnight I use the Bradley smoke generator. Also perfect for cold smoking. The best of both worlds.

    Larger Load = More Time?

    I have an MES and have used it 30 to 40 times. I have only done one or two Boston Butts at a time. I may be called on to do up to 8 (5lbs each) at one time in the near future. How will this large load effect cooking time? All opinions are welcome but I would really like to hear from people...

    It is made from a piece of 16” diameter steel pipe. It was given to me by a friend who thought it was from a gas line. It is about 3/16” thick. It was several feet long. I welded the two ends in it. These were cut from some sheet steel approximately 1/8” thick. The door was made from the...

    MES\Bradley Hybrid

    Thanks for the comments guy’s. Wow, I did not expect to receive an award. Cool. Here are a couple of “action” shots. No smoke in the pic as it has just started. I like for it to dry about an hour before I apply the smoke.
