    Smoker wind break

    Just a followup - Here are some pictures of the windbreaks I made out of a sheet of durarock backerboard. I cut them out with an oscillating multitool, tried to wrap the edges with duct tape, and painted them black with high temp paint. I have a feeling I'll be replacing the tape. I used...

    Smoker wind break

    I put my cast iron skillet up on legs - three long carriage bolts, 6 nuts (can't remember if I used any washers or not).  Killed my soul to drill three holes in a perfectly good cast iron skillet, but drill them I did (thankfully it wasn't old cast, but a new skillet I bought from Wally World). ...

    My Second Try at Prime Rib w/ Qview

    Greetings, all; Last year at Christmastime, I bought a couple of rib roasts while on sale at Publix and put them in the freezer for a nice spring day.  I didn't take any pictures of my first go with smoking prime rib, but did take a couple of pictures of my second try today.  I prepped the...

    Got the A-Maze-N smoker for Xmas!

    Good for you! I asked Santa for one, even copied the link to the package I wanted, but evidently Santa has an innate fear of ordering anything online;  So come Christmas Eve, there wasn't one to be found under the Christmas tree.... So I went ahead and ordered it myself.  It shipped today...

    AMNS in GOSM?

    Hey gang, Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'm thinking of asking Santa for an AMNS to use in my GOSM, and want to make sure it can be used for temps above 200, and how do you keep the burner from igniting all of the sawdust??  Thanks, Mike

    Am I doing this whole thing wrong?

    I've got the same wireless thermometer. Found it on sale at Lowe's at the end of last season, so I bought two!

    Brinkman Verticle Smoker

    My first smoker was a Brinkmann vertical smoker (ol' Gimpy). Like others, I had a hard time maintaining temps using charcoal, so I ended up converting it to propane. I bought one of the Charbroil tabletop propane grills from Wallyworld for the burner and regulator, and then bought an adapter...

    Am I doing this whole thing wrong?

    About the only thing I can add to the replies you've gotten already is one very good reason to use an internal thermometer is to make sure you've cooked the meat enough to be safe to eat, especially when cooking pork and poultry.
