    Insulated reverse flow cabinet fuel question

    Hey guys, Wondering if anyone runs one of these cookers with lump for fuel. We have one that we are going through the learning phases with and so far have just ran royal oak briquettes with chunk wood scattered around in the box. A 10ish hour cook uses just under 1/2 a load of coals but being...

    Today's adventure with our little smoker

    Thanks guys! Al, running a brisket at 290 with nearly no fat will not scorch the meat? I personally do not have an issue with running it like that but my partner gets scared when I started with the whole Hot and Fast move to see if it would hold up for vending purposes. I'm wondering if for...

    Today's adventure with our little smoker

    A little Q-view Notes: This was a test cook and overall I'm happy with the results, not perfect by any means but solid 3rd cook on this new smoker. Points to note: 1) Set guru to 290, it held nearly all day between 288 and 307, we had 50+ mph winds all day gusting and some sustained for...

    The beast has been delivered!!

    Yes, we purchased the trailer with the vending cabin on it, I plan on posting a build thread to show the progress of the project from start to finish when we are done but quick rundown: The original trailer had a GIANT rotisserie smoker which was approximately 7 1/2 wide and weighed in around...

    The beast has been delivered!!

    Yesterday was a miserable day here in Michigan with today only getting worse. Freezing temps with crazy wind howling all day didn't make for a good time working outside. I decided to do a cook in my crappy verticals offset for friends and then got the call that our monster reverse flow insulated...

    Lurker breaking out this year!

    Hey guys! Wanted to say hello and break away from just lurking on the forums. I'm from just west of Jackson and currently working on a rebuild of a vending trailer that a friend of mine and myself will use to get into the vending/catering game this year. Last week we ripped off the GIANT...

    The builder of our new smoker teasing us

    I get this photo from the guy building our new reverse flow cabinet last night. So close to being able to pick it up and mount it on the trailer. It's a 36x30x60 which will be on 1 foot legs mounted to our vending trailer. New venture for my friend and myself this year, excited to be using this...

    Awesome wedding present!!!!! (or setup....lol)

    So this past weekend I smoked 110# of brisket, chicken and various pork for my wedding. Meal was epic and everyone was amazed that I did it all myself at home. A week prior I took over cooking a whole hog for a friend's wedding reception and again it was a hit so my buddy helped me out with my...

    Whole ribeye loin done "well"?

    I'm going to be doing a big smoke in two weeks for my wedding and part of the carving table is going to be whole ribeye loins. I plan on doing these similar to my briskets with wrapping and coolering them until it's time to carve for dinner. I'm giving myself 22 hours total for briskets/pork...

    Wedding meal prep, little help guys :D (in over my head lol)

    It's my 2nd marriage and we've been together for 7 years so all the "stress" is gone other than pulling off this meal. I told my bride to be that I want to just have a meal and feed people, it's something I enjoy to do and I'm trying to create more of a "family reunion" type atmosphere instead...

    Wedding meal prep, little help guys :D (in over my head lol)

    Crazy, yes, amateur, yes but I've done big cooks before but it's been years. Meat prices I'm not familiar with because it's been years since I've done something like this. My personal smoker is a vertical smoker with an offset fire box, I've decided to call in a favor from a Co worker and borrow...

    Wedding meal prep, little help guys :D (in over my head lol)

    So I get married in about a month, I guess I'm in charge of most of the food (MEEAAAATTTT!!!!) and I've decided I'm just gonna fire up the smoker, have some drinks and cigars and enjoy the weekend while smoking a bunch of meat! Not sure on how many people I'm gonna have but it will be under 75...
