    Old Country Wrangler- Owners Thread

    Did another split only cook today. Used a little lump to get things going, added two splits and the temps settled at about 240, door opened. Just added a split( about 8 inches x 3 or 4 inches ) about every 30-45 minutes. Things were pretty sable, gettin the hang! Smokes 1/2 rack of spares...

    Old Country Wrangler- Owners Thread

    Ha! That picture that followed your last post was sandwiched in between our post! It's not my response. I have used a charcoal basket in the past but am going more and more to just wood. Out here in the Angelo, we don't have much oak. I'm using mostly mesquite since that's what we have...

    It was a 7 1/2 hour cook. No stall. Wrapped with butcher paper at 165-170 and it sailed on thru! That meat looks great! Thanks

    Old Country Wrangler- Owners Thread

    Hi Joe. Here's how I fixed the problem. I took the wood tray out of the FB and put it almost all the way toward the exhaust end. Then spread the tuning plates I had made out and placed a water pan on top of the tray. After moving the plates around I got the temps cooler on the exhaust side and...

    Thanks Joe. Going to continue working with splits! My old smoker was a char griller and the basket worked ok but the Wrangler seems much more efficient so I'm going old school! Going to try MickHLR's ribs Tuesday and will go stick only again. See ya, Smoke On!

    Old Country Wrangler- Owners Thread

    Was bold enough to try a new method on the Wrangker yesterday. I've only done about 6 cooks on the Wrangler so new makes me nervous! Started with a 13 lb brisket. Marinated in Dr. pepper overnight. That's new! Smokes at 250 without my wood/charcoal basket. That's new.t Used only oak splits to...

    Old Country Wrangler Temps (again)

    Hello guys. I know this has been discussed before but looking for a tune up.... I have a wrangler, have done about 4 cooks and like it. My issue is this; the temps run about 30-50 higher on the EXHAUST side for about an hour. I'm using two calibrated digital thermos that are held off the grate...

    Old Country Wrangler and temp question (problems?)

    How much was your split? My son and I both have wranglers and are getting huge splits with the exhaust maybe 50 degrees hotter. I have 1/8 inch thick tuning plates. I put two together on the exhaust side with a water pan. No dice. They get closer after about 45 minutes but every time I add fuel...

    Sealing the Wrangler

    I'll bet she won't leak now! Got a roll or BGE tape seal. A little pricey but it has good reviews. Cleaned all the surfaces well with alcohol the applied the tape. Will let her cure for 24 hours and see what happens with 5 racks of ribs! Going to seal the fire chamber door with high temp rtv...

    insulating temp probes

    Anyone used heat shrink to protect where the wiresgo into the probe on electric temp probes? I think that will protect the connection but I can only find shrink wrap rated to about 250F. thanks

    What are the latest brisket prices?

    Lemans, I'd move before I paid that! West Texas prices are running 1.97 for packer and about 3.00 for a flat.
