    Feel like a newbie.

    Thanks for all the replies. Looking at a shopping trip tomorrow, need to get some charcoal and I see HyVee is doing .99c lb butt sale. That's some good timing. Trying to come up with a good (original) fatty idea. May have to go over to that section and see what's new in the wonderful world...

    Hi all, it's been so long since i was last on here with some qview figured i'd do a newbie post. The last 5 months have been real trying but managed to get through it with my sanity intact and the roof still over our heads. Looking to get the cgsp fired up again soon, hopefully this weekend...

    Pulled brisket vs. pulled chuck roast

    My last smoke was a whole brisket, pulled the point, sliced the flat. Both parts had great flavor and were plenty moist. I've also done several chucks too. They were all pulled for sammies. I think if i'm cooking for just the family i'd do a chuckie, if it eas for a larger gathering i'd...

    Building Charcoal smoker out of freezer

    Hey nice looking project. Recently i was out looking around our sheds here, seeing what could be tossed onto a bonfire when i came across our old upright freezer. I think ours is around the same size. I thought hmmmmm that could make a good smoker, just wasn't sure which way to go. I think...

    Wood for sale

    David i just hit a pretty good score of apple and cherry this summer so i have a pallet load ready to use soon. Good info tho. K Man, do you have any fruit orchards in that part of Yorkshire ? Pretty much any fruit wood should be good for smoking with. Oak is also a good smoking wood. Should...

    Okay, I have a theory......

    I'm hungry when the meat comes off the somker. My problem is while either carving or pulling meat i'll "sample" as i go . As for the smoke flavour being better the next day yeah .... totally agree. We normally have leftovers for a few days (depending on what was cooked) which go towards my...

    Do you really need the bacon ?

    I have never done a fatty wrapped in bacon and they have always turned out good. Stuffed a few pork loins and wrapped them with bacon. I have done some mini fatties by wrapping some cheese snack sticks with italian sausage. They came out pretty good. Kinda like a fatty hot dog.

    Kingsford Hardwood Lump

    I've been using this since our local wally world stopped carrying R.O. I smoked a 9lb brisket and used around 1 1/2 bags on a 10 hours smoke. Although could of probably used less but was experimenting with a new baffle. As for how it burns, i used a bag around 12 months back. Was awful stuff...

    Dumb Question, Just Wondering

    I will normally usethe smoker more during the summer. Mainly because we live in an old farmhouse and have no A/C. I have smoked in winter time but most of the time the wife cooks on the stove just to add more heat to the house in the winter.

    new here and need info

    Another good thing about lump is it produces a lot less ash then briqettes. Which for us cgsp users is a big deal .

    Brisket vs. Chuck Roast

    I've done a couple of chuck roasts. I purposely picked ones with a decent amount of fat, but not too much. They do cook up good, easy to pull, plenty moist, very similar to a pork butt. They were a 3lber and a 5lber. Think they were 9 and 11 hours cooking. Recently i done a 9 lb packer...
