    100% hickory or 100% mesquite pellets online?

    Has anyone done research to find the best (read cheapest) place to buy 100% hickory or 100% mesquite pellets online? Seems like I'm running across a lot if $50 to $70 price tags for 40 lb bags, which seems pretty high despite 100% flavor wood being more expensive than blends. I tend to believe...

    "Why not just use the oven or a crock pot, then toss in some liquid smoke?"

    "Why not just use the oven or a crock pot, and then toss in some liquid smoke instead of messing around with a smoker?" This question is one that a friend asked me after hearing me talk about my experiences using my pellet smoker, and my sometimes-disappointing results (not enough smoke...

    Heavy Duty Wire Racks (for chicken wings)?

    Hey there, I'm looking for some heavy duty wire racks similar to the ones used for baking, but I want heavy duty ones that aren't going to be bothered by the weight of a roast or something. I'll primarily use them for wings, I think, but I figure I want to make sure it they can stand up to...

    Which of these honing steels should I get?

    Hi there, I have $50 I need to burn at Saks (it's a credit card perk so it's spend it or lose it) and I saw that they had some honing steels sitting right around $50. I've linked them below and was hoping for some input on which one might be best. My knives are very 'meh' quality, but this...

    Butcher Paper - Pink vs Brown & a few different options

    Hi there, I'm going to be buying some butcher paper, and I've googled around, browsed the forum, and read a decent amount. I'm still left with some questions, so I'm hoping you guys can provide some clarity before I buy. 1. As I understand it, white butcher paper (like this) is bleached, and...

    Can I use my Pit Boss (touch screen controls) while raining?

    I assume this is a stupid question, and I shouldn't try it, but I don't know what I don't know. Does anyone have experience using a Pit Boss that has one of the touchscreen control panels while it's raining? I was thinking maybe I could rig up something to cover the panel, but I'm not really...

    Air tight pellet storage - Gamma 2 screw-down lids leak

    Hi all, does anyone have a method of storing pellets that's 100% air and water tight? I recently grabbed a few food safe 5 gallon buckets and Gamma2 twist-down lids from Tractor Supply. They have two gaskets and are supposed to be completely leak proof and air tight. I did a quick water test...

    Stupid questions about new Pit Boss from a concerned noob

    Hi all, I've got what I imagine are probably some stupid, overly-worried questions, but if by some chance one of these things ends up mattering, I'm going to be pissed at myself for not asking. I've never owned a smoker or done any smoking, so I'm in brand new territory. I just went out and...

    Masterbuilt electric smokers: 20078715 for $125 or 20071117 for $100?

    Hi there, I have a shot at buying a very slightly used 20078715 for $125 or a brand new 20071117 for $100. They seem like very similar units, but I figured I should ask the authorities on the matter. For the record, I'm brand new to smoking and am interested in low cost, easy to maintain, and...
