    Question on Smoking Whole Head of Garlic

    I used to take a whole head of garlic, cut the top off (just enough to expose the cloves) and drizzle olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, or whatever spices/herbs paired well with the meat I was grilling, usually a nice thick steak. I would then wrap in foil and grill long enough to...

    Another FNG!!!

    Hello everyone!   Just a brief introduction.  My name is Mike, and I am in southwest Michigan.  I am new to smoking, but very excited to get the fire rolling!  I am currently in the middle of my first build, so it may take some time before I actually hang any meat.  In the meantime, I will...

    My First Build

    I've always wanted a smoker, but I was having a hard time getting off of the money.  Approximately $140. for something that a turkey probably wouldn't even fit in.....don't think so!! So, after cruising YouTube and the internet for a while, I decided to jump in and build my own.  I will say...
