    My new 22 1/2" WSM

    That really bites. IMO, $400 is WAY TOO MUCH for that unit. I got my regular WSM (NEW) for $190 SHIPPED. I added a Pro-Q insert and now have just as much inches^2 as the 22 incher. Don't forget the deals on Craig's list. There's sure to be some used 18 inch WSM's coming up. -rob

    Couple Of Tips From The Competition Folks

    ALX, We inject with FAB-P as well. 1/4 cup to 1 liter of apple juice will do 2 butts. Judging by location you must have competed with us before. I just posted our 2009 schedule: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...462#post282462 The team that is doing the class in April is iQue. They are...

    Couple Of Tips From The Competition Folks

    Interesting - I've been to a class taught by a team who is currently ranked in the 60's overall in the KCBS TOY ranking. Their pork technique is to foil at 160 with a couple of spritzes of apple juice regardless of what the bark looks like. The meat comes off at 200 and rests in a warm cooler...

    Hackjob BBQ doing it all wrong

    Only events with certified judges count - like MBN or KCBS. KCBS with blind boxes removes any favoritism. I agree though - it's best not to join this team as you will be picking up some bad habits. I spend $200 - 300 a year for a competition class being taught by the winning NorthEast teams...

    Hackjob BBQ doing it all wrong

    Regarding issue #2: Itâ€8482s a well known fact that the smoke ring formation stops when the meat hits 140 F. The longer it takes your meat to get up to 140 the better your smoke ring. This is why butts and brisket go on cold. In poultry however, the smoke ring is often mistaken as undercooking...

    Cheap DIY Automated power drafter (Guru)

    I used to be an EE many moons ago but gave it up for software. She can probably improve the circuit a great deal by using pulse width modulation and some other techniques. It's a pretty easy build though - have fun with it. -rob

    Greetings from Snow Country - Boston, NY

    Welcome to the forum. From your list looks like I'll see you in Windsor, New Holland (maybe), Clarence and Sayville. Are you doing Troy or Lake Placid? Lake Placid is probably the next best thing to Harpoon. -rob

    Cheap DIY Automated power drafter (Guru)

    Thanks Josh, Now I can finally move on to writing my Java PDA app to control the Stoker. I used Amir's StokerLog software last night. It's pretty sweet. All I want is something simple running on a WiFi PDA. Have you seen this device yet: http://www.makershed.com/ProductDeta...ductCode=MKSP4...

    Cheap DIY Automated power drafter (Guru)

    I cooked 2 slabs on the WSM using this device last night. It works quite well actually. Once the smoker gets up to temp adjust the knob until the "Fan On" led turns on dim - kind of like arming it. The fan will be off. Once it drops below your set point the LED and fan slams on hard and the fire...

    Cheap DIY Automated power drafter (Guru)

    SMF Status

    While I do appreciate all the work that is being done to keep this site running I still have to say what happened really sucks. A site's main value is the content within it. In that respect, this site was greatly devalued by the loss of data. However, the other asset a site has is the members...
