    Has anyone used a BBQ Vault by Pitmaker?

    I am considering purchasing a BBQ Vault built by Pitmaker in Houston, TX.  The pits look killer and I want a vertical smoker with a water pan.  I would appreciate any input from anyone who has personally used a Vault or owns one.  Thanks in advance for your help on this.

    Big Green Egg

    I am thinking about selling my offset smoker on a trailer and buying a few XL Big Green Eggs instead. I like that they use very little fuel, are easy to control and fit nicely on my back deck. They can be used to cook steaks at 700 degrees or to keep a steady 220 on an overnight brisket smoke...

    Cleaning Smoker

    I am going to get the pressure washer out and get the pork fat out of my smoker. Any suggestions on a degreaser that won't leave a chemical smell or residue would be appreciated. Any opinions on the proper way to clean my smoker would also be helpful.

    Crabapple wood

    I know there have been questions as to whether crabapple can be used to smoke with. I used it this weekend to smoke 14 lbs. of pork butt and the result were fantastic. It looks, smells, and gives off the exact same smoke as apple. I have an absolute ton of it so I am relieved to be able to...
