    Trying to save a Backwoods Chubby

    Hello, I came across a Backwoods Chubby, original version I believe, that has been neglected and I am hoping to bring it back to life. There is quite a bit of rust but it seems pretty much just surface. My plan is to wire brush and sand away the rust. For the exterior, I'm planning to get...

    Smoke Vault Loaded Up!

    Have the smoke vault loaded up today and running about 225 for a gathering this evening.  On top is a halved 10 lb boston butt.  Next down is a brisket weighing in at about 7 lbs. They will both go to around 195 or 200, or until tender. (Sidenote: I got two briskets from my father-in-law's farm...

    Help! Pork cut identfication.

    I received several cuts of pork from a local pig farm here on Oahu.  You pay a flat fee with a bunch of other people and then go pick up a bag with pork in it.  We have been doing this monthly with fresh produce for awhile now, but the pork thing is new.  You don't know what your going to get...

    Computer Fan Mod on MES 30 Analogue

    So I've been struggling with my Analogue MES 30 (No external load tray, non adjustable vent) and the AMNPS.  I've added an aquarium pump on the side adding some air, drilled some additional 1/4' exhaust holes on the rear, and placed the AMNPS on a ceramic tile.  I still have issues with keeping...

    Keeping pork butt warm in oven all day

    MES MODS and AMNPS: better smoke when MES is OFF

    I have the 30" analogue MES with just the one small vent in the right upper rear.  I have been struggling with keeping the AMNPS lit.   Additionally, even if it stays lit, very few of the pellets turn to ash.  Mostly, they just turn black but retain their shape.  I suspect this is from...

    Smaller cuts of beef to smoke

    I am pretty new to smoking and have been enjoying chicken, ribs, and tenderloin. I smoke a chicken every week and eat it for lunch for the week and I can go through a couple of racks of baby back ribs or a pork tenderloin on my own over a couple of days.  The thing is that my wife doesn't eat...

    First baby back ribs on MES with AMNPS

    Did some baby back ribs last night and was ready to do the aquarium pump mod on my MES in case I had trouble keeping the AMNPS lit but it wasn't necessary.  It was actually burning too quickly at one point and I had to move it and give it more of a heat shield.  What a great little device.  I...
