    +1 For the Flat Earthers

    Did you know? That 70% of the Earth is covered in non-carbonated water? This means that the Earth truly is flat. :emoji_laughing:

    Auber Wifi PID controller and Inkbird Temp probe set

    F/S is an Auber Wifi PID controller for an electric smoker and a bluetooth Inkbird temp monitor. I picked these up a while back and they have been rock solid while I used my electric smoker. Went to GF and never looked back. Several replacement and aux probes are included although I don't...

    Possessed Fireboard 2

    I recently got sick of the terrible controls and connectivity issues with my MBGF 560, so I took the plunge and jumped on the Fireboard2 bandwagon. Excited to finally use this thing, I ran into a couple of small snags initially but after that hump was cleared it was smooth sailing. FFWD 2...

    Smoked Spare Ribs Experiment

    Today I am doing a couple of racks of pork spare ribs. Normally when I do these I use the 3-2-1 (or maybe even the 2-2-1) method for cooking them. They were both hit with some Cosmos dirty bird and cow cover (because I was lazy and it was what I had on hand) Now, here comes the...

    Slowly making my way back

    Hey everyone, Its been more than a season or so since I fired up the ole MES30. Truth be told, i've become quite fond of my other toys (sous vide and IP) and the lustre of my smoker went by the wayside. Combine that with the frustration of wild temp swings, temps almost NEVER matching...

    Grrrrrg, MES decides to act up TODAY of all days...

    After several successful smokes with my MES30 (and MB mod) one thing I always noticed was my external thermometer (Inkbird) ALWAYS registered ~50 higher than the MES displayed temp. Not a huge issue - my food always comes out good. This mornings Turkey day smoke has me a little more than...

    SV Poor Mans Burnt Ends

    Half the fun of this hobby is trying new methods and ways to do things. So, I am doing just that with my 'poor mans' burnt ends. (With your host Chuck Roast) The past couple of times ive done PMBE, they were good but it was hit and miss on whether they were awesome or just plain too dry...

    SV Why are the 'die hards' so afraid of Sous Vide?

    And by die hards I mean the grillers, cast ironers, broilers, pit smokers etc. I am currently in a heated discussion on FB (yes I know, thats a part of the issue there LOL) in regards to my comment stating that sous vide is a superior way to cook your meat(s) to perfection. Whoah... The...

    First attempt at 'Bacon Burnt Ends' - Meh...

    Im on the tail end of my first attempt at some bacon burnt ends (that of course I stumbled across on the interwebs) After thoroughly enjoying some (first time) chucky burnt ends, I thought I would try my hand at these bacon candies. Of course everything is a learning experience for the...

    Maiden Cheese Smoking Attempt

    Well today was the day - The lady was ribbing me about smoking most everything BUT CHEESE. So, while at the store I picked up a few hunks on sale as well as some sticks. On the racks were: Pepper Jack, Sharp Cheddar, Colby Jack, and Mozzarella. I also did some sticks of Havarti and Poly-O...

    Faux Chick-Fil-A sammich in the Air Fryer

    After my (first) attempt at sous vide chicken, I had a couple of extra breasts vacuum sealed in the fridge waiting to be consumed. In seeing that my first attempt at sous vide was seasoned improperly, I didn't want to run these chickens the same way - so I faux chick fil a'd them. I say faux...

    Chicken Breast on the Sous Vide - Im a believer now

    After a long wait (sans weekend) my Anova was just delivered via FedUp. I had seasoned several chicken breasts (my faves) in preparation of the arrival of my sous vide. 2 hours on @ 150(f) and ZOMG!!! About the only thing I am missing is the 'grillyness' of my backyard cooker chicken...

    Noooo!! 1st Butt - A little anxious now...

    Well, in my first attempt at a pork butt I also had my first (lesson learned) messup... My external MB mox/AMNPS tray caught fire. I came home from lunch to find this - (thank you windy day) I think the most of the saving grace here is the fact that most of the nasty smoke, went out of the...

    Maiden smoke done! Eye o' round

    Well, I popped my smoking cherry today on an Eye of Round. Using my MES30 and MBMod, I followed Bear's guidelines and it came out quite well! I will say that I think I am going to either have to have my current rub grow on me some, or still keep tinkering and find a rub that is actually...

    Dedicated Vessel for Curing

    As I read more and more into this hobby, I have started to mentally (and in a spreadsheet) gather an inventory list of things that I will need to get up and running as efficiently as possible. One of these things would be a 'curing vessel' (i.e. a fridge of sorts) I know good and gosh darned...
