What is your preferred method of finishing off a smoke? I've always used peach paper after a good bark, but some use tinfoil to tightly seal the meat and keep moisture in. Does that soften the bark too much? I have yet to try it
Update: Camp Chef was on the ball with getting back to me. Very impressed with their customer service. Most of the suggestions where already done. However they did mention auger tube build up of pellet dust and vent to chimney. The dust can ignite. I cycled the feed to remove all pellets in...
Started my first pork butt at 6am this morning. Recipe says smoke for 12 to 13 hours at 225* and remove at 205" internal. If I reach 205 before the time frame, Im assuming leave it smoking for the duration?
Been using my first pellet smoker since November. Previously, Ive used the charcoal grill for just about everything, Since some thinner meats need to be seared, Is it worth getting a sear box along with smoking.
I do love the flavor of the briquets, so Im not sure if would be gaining...
A great smoker otherwise. About a dozen smokes, and this is what both probes now read at ambient. Yeah, I'll be calling for some new ones :emoji_angry:
Im a newb, so bare with me. Camp Chef 24 dlx probes can handle up to 350 deg smoke temp while cooking. Some meals (whole turkey) go up to 375-400 for 1.5 hours, so this is beyond what the probes will handle
. Are more robust probes available? Or would I be better off just spiking the meat...
Im used to firing up the charcoals full bore and cooking until internal food temps reach to my liking. But with smoking, is there a general time guide per pound, to see how long it takes for meat/fish to reach desired internal temps? Some recipes dont tell how long smoke times are.
Really wanted the rec tec, 340 but I felt I needed more room esp for hosting holidays. The GMG DB didnt do much for me for the price and I really didnt need wi fi. Its a gift for the wifey, and I knew she woulnt use that feature.
What really sold me was the features of the camp chef smoke...
Just a quick hello . Browsed this site for the last couple of hours! Learned a great deal on pellet smokers. Posted in that forum for my questions.
I grill a ton with the charcoal, looking forward to trying something different.
Best to you all:emoji_sunglasses:
Spent the last hour or so on here. Just an amazing wealth of info from all you folks. Im a Webber kingsford guy, so this is all new to me.
Im in the market for a pellet for the wife. Ive narrowed a few down. I dont mind gadgets, but I want something straight forward for her to use and not be...
