    Need help on brisket

    Chopsaw, that's one fabulous looking point. I cook on a stick burner but am extremely curious how long you cooked the point. I have never separated the packer but would love to try just the point to see how much time it would cut down versus smoking the whole brisket.

    Long time no talk to, it took me almost a year to be able to respond to post or to send messages. I got with Jeff and for some reason my yahoo account would not let me access the site to post questions and respond. It took Jeff several weeks to a month to be able to figure it out. I am back and...

    1st Cook on new Bell Fab

    I am using post/white oak but plan on going to mainly pecan when the weather cools down and I can fire the baby up. Be interested in how the bacon comes out on your meatloaf. I have the same bell fab as Displaced Texan has.

    1st Cook on new Bell Fab

    I have had a hard time keeping the temps down also. I haven't gotten to really use it the way I want with the dang temps in Texas this summer. We have been at 100 plus for the last three weeks and before that the high 90's from June on. It is just way to hot for my age to be around a log burner...

    Whole Pork Loin

    I want to to thank each and everyone of you that provided extremely valuable information and tips for my first cook. I ended up cutting the whole loin enter thirds and brining for 24 hours in just salt and water and smoked at 225 for right at 2 1/2 hours. Removed from the smoker at 140 to 143...

    Whole Pork Loin

    I have an 8 to 10 pound Pork Loin and would love suggestions on smoking and not having it turn out like shoe leather. Thought I would cut it in half and/or thirds and cook one piece rubbed and wrapped in bacon. Totally open to suggestions on how to keep it moist. Should it be brined...

    1st Cook on new Bell Fab

    Quick question to all, just picked up my Bell Fab stick burner and am dying to try it out. I am a newbie and need advice on wind conditions and smoking. I'm in East Texas and it's spring so that means wind. We have been in wind advisories the last couple of days (winds gusting to 30 - 35) and...

Give me the best info you can for building a fire (how large to start with), a full bed of embers/coals or what and how. Help, got to get this thing fired up and cooking without...

    Bell Fab on order - need advice

    I spoke with Craig yesterday and when I placed my order in early December, he was about 60 days out. He has been extremely busy, and it appears his orders have come in hot and heavy. He is finishing up a custom trailer (about 7 to 10 days left on it) and was going to get to some backyard smokers...
