    Here's what I'm smokin' today

    Before pulling After pulling I am disappointed that I had to finish up in the oven. Really wanted to get a good bark and smoke ring going. But the taste is what we are going for anyway...and it is good. As you can see by the first Qview it had plenty of juices. Guess I will have to eat...

    Hello from Big Orange Country

    Did not even know a game was on. Would have watched if so. Even if it was a Gator game. There are two seasons....Football and BORING. My opinion anyway.

    Hello from Big Orange Country

    Looks good!!! Woulda been much better if that orange gnome had spent some quality time in the smoker. Go Dawgs!!!! Can't wait for football season. Should have a kicka$$ team this year for sure.

    Here's what I'm smokin' today

    It had to sit in the oven for about 20 minutes. It is rather tasty as well. Wife asked me how I got the sweetish taste on the skin. I never would have thought about spritzing with apple juice if it had not been for this site. The pork seems to have hit the dreaded plateau at 159.

    Here's what I'm smokin' today

    One of the downsides of using fuel you can see......ya don't know exactly how much you have....need I say more???? I have a LPG tank gauge but it is in storage 300 miles away at the moment. Ran out with the bird at 169 and the pork at 157. Both are now sitting in the oven to finish up...

    SUCCESS!!! Brinkmann Vertical is now converted---with pics

    I don't know what impact adding the valve will have. I have not gone the needle valve direction as yet. I was concerned about having too small of a flame and risking blowouts. I don't plan to do much smoking under the 225 range. I have a beautiful blue flame with my control knob turned all...

    Hello from Big Orange Country

    What they said. Wrap them in aluminum foil and a towel and put them in a cooler. This will keep them warm and allow the juices to redistribute. I use a small lunchbox type collapsible cooler.

    SUCCESS!!! Brinkmann Vertical is now converted---with pics

    I am putting my mods to a real test today. I cut the additional vent in the top of the unit and that has solved my problem. I can get this baby to stick at 240 and have only had to adjust a couple of times. Qview of smoker in action can be found here...

    Here's what I'm smokin' today

    YUMMMMYYYYY!!!!!!!! These started at 10Eastern and were at temp by 1:15. Chicken is at 158 internal....got another 12 degrees to go. Pork is at 129....got forever before she is ready. I gotta say that I have to brag on myself with how this mod has worked out...

    Here's what I'm smokin' today

    You really can't cook by time. You must go by temp. I will let them hit 185 internal temp. These are boneless so can't go by the "meat pulling from bone" method. I you want to provide me with an e-mail address I can send you a fantastic Time and Temp chart that another member put together...

    Here's what I'm smokin' today

    First time with my newly modified Brinkmann Vertical. Been doing test runs with it empty and told the wife I had to do some meat. Sorry for the glare on the pic....sun was shining off in the east. Got a pork shoulder on top and a chicken on the bottom. Both are surrounded by some country...

    SUCCESS!!! Brinkmann Vertical is now converted---with pics

    Thanks for all of the positive comments one the mod and the suggestions on heat control. I will probably cut the top vent hole today and try to find the needle valve over the weekend. This is one of the few projects that went as smoothly as I had planned. Everything fit right the first time...

    SUCCESS!!! Brinkmann Vertical is now converted---with pics

    I have been noodeling over some ways I could get better use out of my HD Brinkmann Vertical. I knew I wanted to convert to propane but was unsure exactly how I wanted to do it. I wanted to leave my option open of easily using charcoal at any time. I was grilling some steaks on my Brinkmann...

    Come to the conclusion

    aussiemick, I have the Home Depot version of the Brinkmann Vertical (2 doors). If you do not want to deal with making your own basket, buy one of these from either Lowe's or Home Depot. It will be in the grill area and they call it a Wok basket. I did a 6+ hour smoke the other day and had...
