    Has anyone ever used Cheat River Hardwood pellets for cooking?

    Back on track, cooked some ribeyes with these pellets tonight. set at 475 but temp read at 400-450 during cook from opening the lid. Steaks were only 3/4" thick, 4 minutes a side with a quick twist then 2 more minutes for grill marks on each side. I don't have the sear kit. Let them sit for 10...

    Has anyone ever used Cheat River Hardwood pellets for cooking?

    So I'm new to the pellet smoker and it falls in line with this thread. I've been an off set smoker until now, never wrapped as the extra time wasn't an issue to me. Is there a cut off period with pellet smokers that you HAVE TO wrap? Watched a video where they smoke a pork butt on a pellet...

    Has anyone ever used Cheat River Hardwood pellets for cooking?

    I purchased a Rec Tec recently and just did a 7 hour smoke with these pellets, smoking some spare ribs at 225. They came out good but the smoke flavor wasn’t as good as smoking with something like cherry in a stick burner. There are a very variables that could be thrown into the mix that could...

    Cheddar deer sticks

    Good looking sticks. High temp cheese? Just curious because I have been wanting to do this. The group of guys I skin/butcher deer with do bologna in a crock pot with water. Dunno if it's a nation wide brand but they use Conyeager. It's good stuff and would recommend if it is available. Rural...

    Reseasoning Cast Iron Pan, What Did I do Wrong?

    Old thread but tossing in my 2 cents. We use almost nothing but CI on a glass top. New cast iron from 2019 Christmas to unknown age passed down. To do a full clean we bake 375*F for an hour, wash with hot water, chainmail scrubber, and Dawn (sure others will work) then put a thin layer of Crisco...

    $1000 range smoker

    New leg came in and it the fitment issue has been resolved. The bolt holes were noticeably off, didn’t think to grab a comparison picture. Thanks again for the recommendations, Rec Tec’s online reputation of great customer service is no lie.

    $1000 range smoker

    If anyone cares I went with the RT700. Got it in today and was having issues with one leg lining up. Called CS and they were super nice as lots of people have said. They immediately got a new leg on order to send out. Went back to start bolting everything else up and then noticed the alignment...

    $1000 range smoker

    Rectec looks pretty solid, are they sold in any stores? Didn’t see it mentioned, would like to see one in person. Is the smoke box worth adding? How about the cold weather cover? Sorry to be a newb, I spent 9 months ignoring pellet grills searching for a stick burner and would like to get one...

    $1000 range smoker

    Correct, in a rack on their side. The GMG has a statement that it can handle a dozen pork ribs, I was using it for size comparison. Sorry for not clarifying. We have large enough parties were we might cook that much. from their website - With a 13.5” peaked lid and 658 sq. in. of grill space...

    $1000 range smoker

    I’ve looked at these but it’s always from an ad on social media and made me question if they’re any good. I will give them another look.

    $1000 range smoker

    looking for a larger smoker, something 36” or bigger. Was looking at the green Mountain grill jim Bowie but the local rep says they can only get the next teir down. Google is trash when you don’t want the cheapest pile of amazon junk. After many days of searching finally brought me here with...

    Has anyone ever used Cheat River Hardwood pellets for cooking?

    I use these pellets to heat my house with and have also gave some to my brother to use in his Traeger. Both smell wonderful and gave a great taste to the meat. The bag says they’re save to cook with, and the fact we’re all still alive is enough to swing me from a stick burner to a pellet burner...
