    Unsuccessful but learning, my first try!

    So I can speak to you from true experience, I owned that same smoker for a VERY short time.  If it is the elongated barrel type of Char-grill with a side box for coals and wood, I had that same one and the middle temp gauge was always 20-30 degrees off which makes a HUGE difference.  It required...

    Best "Remote" Meat Thermometers.......

    I have the ET-732 Maverick and it is bullet proof. Smoker is outside and at the other end of my ranch I am getting a signal...I can't beat that! Also I purchased the 6 foot cords which was a MUST, should be standard but we know how greed works with company's, apologies I digress! I have...

    Smoking My First Pork Butt

    You want both pork butts to finish around the 205° internal temp. If you are pressed for time you wrap that big one in some tin foil and it will go much faster. I usually bring mine to 205° and wrap in foil and in to the cooler until I am ready for the shindig I am having. That stall you are...

    A-MAZE-N Pellet Smoker pellets dont stay lit.

    I know I am late on this but what I found out is that when there is a slight wind outside, my AMNPS burns better due to a nice draft coming thru the chip loader and exiting the damper at top. To fix that I bought a small desk fan and attach it to something so it blows towards the pulled out chip...

    Anyone rub the night before a smoke?

    Just another opinion but I have always put my rubs on a day or so in advance. If you use a good rub, it gives the spices time to really set into the meat. I have been in a hurry like everyone else here, and can taste the difference when I have rushed and not let it sit. I also do not use...

    Planning First Smoke--Three Questions Please

    I've never used a propane smoker so I'm really not sure how much different it cooks then my electric or my WSM 18.5.  I must confess, I'm not sure I'll use my electric one much anymore since I got the WSM because the last few smokes I've done were OUTSTANDING.  Anyways,  I take my pork butts to...

    17 lbs. Boneless Prime Rib w/ qView!

    I have both. The grinder is really good for a kitchenaid....it isn't the most ideal but I use mine for grinding my product. Now as for those sausage tubes, I thought they were junk. Reason being, they are placed very high on the machine when most stuffers have a bottom exit for that stuff. I...

    Double smoking ham...time question...help!

    I have a ham shank 9.5 lbs. that I put on at 7am.... I've kept the temp around 200° - 225° and at 1pm I'm at 142° according to the Maverick.......... It all depends on how quick and how much smoke you want on it.... I didn't use any wood, just KBB today but it sure smells like I have wood...

    Xmas brisket tomorrow on 18.5" wsm - how much coals to use?

    I know this question was for b-one however this is how I do it: Add the hot coals from your chimney into the can......pull the can out and it should begin to ignite outward. I am unsure about your process of putting the chimney on the top vent so wind doesn't suck out warm air..... I dont...

    Xmas brisket tomorrow on 18.5" wsm - how much coals to use?

    So I just purchased a 18.5 WSM and had to fire it up yesterday. I filled the ring about 1/2 - 3/4 with KBB and placed my 28 oz can in the middle. I put about 6-8 briquettes from the chimney in the can, pulled it and opened all the vents... Within an hour it was at 269°. I dialed it down to...
