Vertical Pellet Smoker Build (Food Warmer/Proofer)
I have been wanting to build a bigger smoker to handle a large amount of meat. I have a very nice heavy duty offset now. Been using it for a lot of years now. It is a Brinkmann Pro series with made from 1/4 steel. Once a year I find it filled to the max with no room for more. Here a few weeks...- trippy

New Old Smoker
I see Cabela's has one too but it's pricey like the Fast Eddie's. As for the pellets being a blaze risk. I have not heard of any blow ups like with turkey fryers. They have a pretty small fire. 36000 btu burn ratting at max burn. Many gas grills exceed that and then some. Like anything you... -
New to charcoal smoking
You could look at pellet too.. They have the same convenience as electric while burning wood for heat. Depending on the unit you might still add a smoke box of chips early in your cooks for the stronger smoke or perhaps a more complex smoke profile. -
Hello From NW Louisiana
Here is what I will say about the wrangler.. Its a nice step up from what your doing now. It is thin in metal so you will have wild heat swings in it. For that reason it will be harder to manage the fire. If your going to spend that kind of money then push on to a Green Mountain Pellet grill. It... -
Why so few Oven/Range conversions?
It comes down to fitting for u. Not everyone has the 220 power set up to run in stove mode. To hot plate it for electrical running uses a lot of critical space in smoker. Most that run refrigerators go hot plate style or gas. There is some going pellet hopper. The refrigerator tends to look a...- trippy

Pellet Pro smoke house
If you do not put a barrier between the wood and metal there might as well be nothing. Your wood will cook down to nothing without some thermal barrier between the two. The barriers insulation factor will determine how much heat it can take and for how long. All insulation will transfer heat...- trippy

Diy pellet hopper assembly
If you have something to bend metal you can buy the parts and do it yourself. I think often one fails to value their time into building things. The only cavyot to that is if the items cost is hugely expensive to buy vs your build cost. If you calculate in time cost it gets hard to build stuff...- trippy

Why so few Oven/Range conversions?
They have less space as to a fridge and your right on top of your heat source. A lot of your convective heat is closer to grilling heat. Even with a diffuser plate it is a hot spot close. Now if your using it as the chamber with external heat. It has to be on some stand to create a reasonable...- trippy

Metal lined Plywood?
That would also play into why wood gassifier can run engines. Personally I would not do a wood smoke house for anything beyond cold smoking. You can wood frame something then insulation barrier between the wood and inside wall paneling. That would be fine for heat then based on your insulation.- trippy

Nice forum here
Everything starts out new like a clean shirt when you pick up a sausey rib. Does not take long to get a dribble down your front breaking it in, that's the way of good BBQ. Once you are dabbling along with it you will find a point to change up your game with something new and bigger. I got... -
New Old Smoker
From what I can see they are close. The main difference is the Cookshack can go to 300 degrees and the other is 250 degrees. Both have about same warranty. Cookshack is made in USA and the other does not say. So it's likely a import from China or else where. I think Fast Eddies makes some out... -
hello
Welcome! Great starter grill. As with all smokers you have to find your flavor. Getting the degree of smoke right can be tricky too. There is a point you can poor it on then to know when to cut down on it. I have had a few cooks that were a tad bitter with too much smoke. These are things we... -
Greetings from Wasilla, AK
Welcome! If you can smoke a brisket and get it right. You will be able to cook anything there after. That's one cook that can go wrong pretty easy making the brisket dry or tough. -
Hello from a newcomer
Welcome! I didn't know what the MES electric was, had to look it up. Looks like a good place to start. I have never used the electric heat but if it holds temperature and you can get smoke in it. You will make some fine eats. The meat will not care how it got the heat to cook in. For many they... -
Hello my name is Don Fredrick
Don't be discouraged. Their is a big difference between cooking pork and chicken. With meat their is no one shoe fit to cooking. Take some time reading temperature required for cut of meat. Try to get as near to it as you can and it will come. Then it's all about making your smoker sing the... -
New to the forum but not new to BBQ
Thanks for the warm welcome! I have done a bit of smoking already. I am no pro mind you. Still picking up finer points to the trade. I have put out some stuff that would fair well in some competitions. Been told it was best they have ever eaten. I just figure they don't get out much. Hehe. At... -
I'm Prepared To Be Convinced
You still can use chips. Many that use pellet hoppers use added chips because pellets burn so efficiently they are low smoke creators. You add a chip smoke box on top of your heat diffuser. It also can give you a little more complex smoke profile for different meats by adding the burn of...- trippy
