    First Ribs On The Pellet Smoker

    I threw some ribs on the my new PittBoss Pellet smoker for the first time today. I ran it at 230 and had them on there for about four and a half hours. I rubbed them with a rub I got at a spice shop in KC awhile back. It was really tasty but sadly it was the last of it. They came out really good...

    PitBoss App Review

    Has anyone used the PitBoss App for a PitBoss smoker or Grill? I downloaded it when I got my new PitBoss Smoker/Grill. It does the job of letting me look in on the temp in the smoker and the meat probes. I am disappointed because I thought the Analytics looked pretty cool but it looks like they...

    Great Cleaning Pit Boss 850CS

    I have a Grill Rescue that I use to clean my grill grates in my gas grill. Would that work for cleaning my new Pit Boss Pellet Smoker grates as well or would the water on the Flame Broiler be a bad idea? What do others use to clean the grates after they smoke and grill on a pellet smoker?

    Looking At Getting A Pellet Smoker, Thoughts?

I love my WSM and playing with the fire but sometimes I just want to throw something on the smoker easy-peasy or not have to sit outside and for an hour to get it setup and then watch it all day. I have...

Then I brushed it with olive oil. Lastly I sprinkled them with some seasoning. Throwing them in the smoker at 250ish for 3ish...

    Cold weather charcoal chimney question

    Not sure if this is the right place but here we go. It is subfreezing here this morning, about 30, I think it got down to about 28 over night. In warmer weather I fire up my chimney with charcoal and then set it on the patio and let the charcoal get lit. I did that this morning and after awhile...

    I am going to do a creole butter injection on my thanksgiving turkey breast later this week. I have never done an injection before. Any tips? How long ahead of time should I inject. Should I rub before or after injecting? Thanks for any pointers.

    Got some turkey breasts on sale awhile back and finally had enough lead time to smoke one today. Brined it in a buttermilk brine for around 27 hours. Just threw in on the WSM. Also threw a bunch of Chicken breasts because a full smoker is a happy smoker.
