    Masterbuilt 255S

    Well it's been a few months and I have to say, with the huge size of the Masterbuilt 255S, I have been packing this thing full and the time span between smokings has grown. So with the freezer still stocked, lately I have been thinking about doing some cold smoking / curing of some bacon and...

    Masterbuilt 255S

    Exactly, I pulled the trigger not seeing any reviews. One thing can say is that it gets hot quick, uses not as much pellets as one may expect, and YES it's a pellet furnace! Has 2 modes, smoke (low heating capacity) and the furnace mode that sounds like it's running on propane. The thing roars...

    Masterbuilt 255S

    Well the turkey and everything else turned out great. I ended up running a smoke cycle for a whole hour+ after the preheat. Drew down the chamber temp to 80F, so it will cold smoke. Then used a 20 minute smoke cycle and a 40 minute heating cycle for the rest of the day with a 3 hour heat cycle...

    Masterbuilt 255S

    Turkey is up to 100 degrees with the setpoint at 240. About 4 hours into it. I'm doing a 20 minute smoke cycle & a 60 minute cook & repeat. The drippings are doing wonders onto the drip pan and thus even more smoke. Using half hickory & apple B&B pellets. Using this smoker is like nothing else...

    Such a thing as a Texas BBQ guided tour?

    Millers Smokehouse in Harker Heights just north of Austin about 50 miles (on the way down from Dallas) has 6 huge pits and their stuff is as good as it gets.

    Masterbuilt 255S

    Well I pulled the trigger and got me one yesterday. The New Masterbuilt 255S. The thing is actually a pellet furnace! Watching and hearing the flame I asked myself what the heck was going on? Risetime to the seasoning setpoint (350 degrees) took 25 minutes, and only overshot 7 degrees. There...

    Tar crystals in my exhaust pipe......

    Hello everyone, This is my first post here and I know I'm with the right kind of folk. Been smoking forever, even back with Weber kettles using chips. Speaking of chips, I have a long belief that watering down wood chips makes tar & corrupts the natural wood oils. So after trying both, I...
