    New to pellet grilling

    For pulled pork, check out recipe br Harry Soo of SlapYo Daddy BBQ. Look at his website or YouTube channel.

    I have the Rec Tec 700 Bull on the comp cart. I have zero complaints. The cart is a must!

    Weekend smoke

    I’m a little afraid of trying my first brisket myself. I’m sure I’ll try it at some point, but I’m not brave enough to try it on a party day.

    Weekend smoke

    I think Warer Rat is on the money. I did a 12 lb butt last weekend. 13.5 hours at 250 degrees. I wrapped at 165 & pulled it off the Rec Tec at 200. It was perfect! The butt fell apart! Your food looks amazing, enjoy!

    Did my first smoke yesterday, this thing is amazing, you’re gonna love yours. My comp cart came & input it together. Super sturdy, much better than the legs. I highly recommend it.

    Gasket???

    SonnyE, best response yet! I will follow your advice. Doing some beef jerky & ribs tomorrow for the first smoke...I of course will be having a few cold frosty beverages I have Stone Go To IPA on tap right now. Penelope too loves a good belly rub

    I just put my 700 Bull together today, and I did the initial burn in. It is amazing! I do have to say, with the standard legs, it’s a bit wobbly. The 700 is a beast of a smoker...it’s heavy and very well made! The bull screams for the comp cart and mine arrives on Tuesday. If you’re on the...

    Gasket???

    Hi friends, Just doing the initial burn in on my Rec Tec RT700 and I was wondering about some sort of gasket to seal the lid. Pros, cons, suggestions...Yes, I’m a total noob

    My father-in-law actually bought my 700 for me for a B-Day gift (WTF...nice, right!). He has the same smoker. His only issue has been on initial start up, sometimes it throws his GFI. There than that...Flawless!

    Hi friends, noob here!

    Hey thanks friends! As far as Penelope goes, she doesn’t seem to mind at all. I’ve cooked numerous whole pigs in my La Caja China. If she gets pissed, she never says anything to me:), she just goes inside & climbs in her bed (yep, she’s an indoor pig). She does like a piece of bacon now & then...

    Hi friends, noob here!

    Hi friends, RNMike here, yes I’m an RN, Pediatric Intensive Care Flight Nurse to be specific. I’m pretty new to smoking and I just got my Rec Tec RT 700 Bull. Best part is that it was a gift from my father-in-law. A TOTAL surprise! Anyway, I’m in SoCal getting all the smoke I can handle from the...
