    Q View - First Time Smoking - Success 2 Racks of St Louis Cut

    Since that first Saturday smoke, I've thoroughly broken my smoker in. In three weekends I've smoked a total of 10 racks of St Louis cut ribs, and a 9 lb pork butt. I love this thing. I am enjoying it and I am figuring out how to maintain my temps a little better so I don't have to babysit it...

    Maintaining Temps - Way too high!!!!

    I think I've figured it out. What I do now is use about 35 briquettes up as close to the smoke chamber (all the way to the right) as possible. And then I put in unlight briquettes when needed to the left, not on top. Depending on the smoke, once I make it all the way to the far side, then I...

    Maintaining Temps - Way too high!!!!

    This smoker is absolutely not a good smoker. The firebox is a joke. The door shut still wiggles loose about a half inch. The hinge is so weak. Very thin sheet metal. Smoking with this smoker in cold weather, I'd imagine it's a nightmare. Having said that, I didn't expect much more from it at...

    Thanks all, I had to babysit the fire the entire time. I'm smoking again on Sunday and can't decide if I should just do more ribs or something else. A butt or brisket. It'll be just for myself...so idk Will be more pictures to come!

    This weekend was the first weekend with my smoker. I did my seasoning smoke and I could not maintain my temps lower than 300-350! I got discouraged and nervous. For the seasoning smoke I used way too much fuel. I got the fuel situation settled the following day before I began the cook and i...

    Maintaining Temps - Way too high!!!!

    I was able to just cut the number of charcoal by about 2/3 and had a nice, reliable fire. Started with coals and then switched to hickory wood chunks for the remainder of the burn. When temps rose higher than 260 I would just open the lid to the fire box and let it settle for a bit. Then i'd...

    Maintaining Temps - Way too high!!!!
