    Steak Tips on the Smoker

    Ok, so, I've purchased some steak tips from the local grocery store, already marinated. I'm wanting to put them on the smoker just to check it out. I'm presuming that just monitoring the temp to be around 135F for a medium rare-ish temp should be fine. Is there anything I need to watch out...

    Mr T's "Smoked Cheese From Go To Show" w/ Q- View

    I apologize if this was covered, but I didn't see any reference to a preference of waxing vs. vacu-sealing. Thoughts? Kurt

    Thigh Pans...

    I'm sure it'll fit...not worried about that. I'm more worried about whether it's big enough for chicken thighs. :)

    Thigh Pans...

    Ok, this is weird, but I like the idea of putting chicken thighs in mini loaf pans to get them into a more uniform shape. I used some disposable loaf pans to double up on them and i also managed to find a wilton 6 loaf mini loaf pan to cook in. These worked great. However, 6 isn't going to...

    Well, pulled the trigger on the Camp Chef

    After a couple smokes with the Camp Chef, I'm not likely to add a gasket. I'm really liking how it's performing right now. It's allowing me to concentrate on the food rather than the process as much.

    Today's Bacon Wrapped Thighs stuffed with Jalapenos and Cream Cheese

    Ok, so they ALL aren't with jalapenos because we've got some weird folks here who don't like those. Anyhow...this is all on my new Camp Chef PG24...I LOVE this thing... Q-View...finished product only...

    Camp Chef DLX - Dimensions?

    I didn't initially buy the "official" cover of the PG24, but am thinking that I'm going to want to cover it after I'm through smoking this weekend. There's a generic cover at Home Depot, I believe, that would be the right size. I think it said it was 65" standard. Has anyone used a generic...

    Well, pulled the trigger on the Camp Chef

    Awesome! I'm in NH and kicking it up to 250 sounds like a good idea. Although, I wrap after 3 hrs, then back on for 2 hrs, then 1 hr unwrapped. I've got racks waiting...plan is to do ribs and chicken this weekend...and maybe a bologna for my dad...he really likes bologna. :)

    Thanks for the heads up! I'll wait on the gasket. I'll be smoking this weekend and will post some qview.

    My first as well. i opted to not go for the Woodwind because the DLX is basically the same except for the shelf and additional wheels. I also did not purchase the sear box...mine was $588 free 2 day shipping included.

    Granted, I'm not as experienced as others with this, but it would seem to me that air flow comes from the chamber below and the chimney directs it as it's supposed to do... Kurt

    Well, pulled the trigger on the Camp Chef

    Why is it advised against? I actually read about the gasket mod as well and, frankly, I was planning on doing that unless convinced otherwise.

    Well, pulled the trigger on the Camp Chef

    Thanks! I also meant to ask if folks have any mods that they liked to do to the Camp Chef? Anyone?

    My new Camp Chef PG24 DLX will be arriving on Wednesday. Just in time to break it in for the weekend. I'm thinking chicken and ribs....

    Camp Chef PG24 - Thoughts?

    The version I'm considering has the hopper dump, which will make clean up quite a bit nicer.

    Camp Chef PG24 - Thoughts?

    I'm likely buying my first pellet smoker soon. I've been leaning towards the Camp Chef PG24 due to good reviews and price point as well as reports of good customer service. It'll be my first pellet smoker. Anything I should watch out for? Anyone not happy with theirs? Thanks in advance, Kurt
