Wood sellers with decent shipping charges?
Try www.mainegrillingwoods.com. Free shipping. Never ordered from them but my buddy did and he's happy! He got a three pack of chunks (black cherry, apple and sugar maple I think) for $27.00. HAven't seen the bags so I don't know how big they are but like I said he is very happy with it.- brianyzf

Last pulled pork smoke
What is the purpose of scoring the butt like that? I've noticed it on some of the Q-views. Is it done when the fat is very thick instead of just trimming it down or does it help the fat to melt into the butt better? I'm doing an 8 pounder on Saturday and maybe I'll try it. -

Anyone smoke with Ash
I have a bunch of ash trees in my yard and was wondering if I could smoke with it? I haven't read any mention of ash on this site. I know it burns pretty hot because I use it in my fire pit.

Thanks for the advice. I did decide to monitor right at the level of each rack. Forgot to take pictures though. I'll try to remember to take some after work. Thanks again.- brianyzf

Best place to monitor temp.?
I was wondering where is the best place to monitor the temp. inside my ECB. I have done the mods and currently just stick a thermocouple down through one of the holes I drilled for my top vent. I stick it down in approx. 4-5 inches so it ends up just above whatever I am smoking. For example...- brianyzf

Goodbye Kingsford
Used Comboy lump for my first 2 smokes and then just yesterday in the middle of smoking an 8 lb. butt I realized I was running out so I sent the wife to Giant Eagle and she got a bag of Kingsford lump. What a difference! The Kingsford was so much better than the Cowboy brand. I've read some...- brianyzf

How long to brine whole chickens?
Well, I brined the first time I did chickens and it was really good. Of course, since it was my very first time smoking I don't know if it was the brine or the rub or the temp. or the time or the wood chips or the charcoal or all of the above or..... All I know is that everyone really liked... -
How long to brine whole chickens?
I'm going to smoke a couple of whole chickens tomorrow and was wondering how long I can brine them for? THis will be only my second time smoking so I'm very new to this. My initial smoke was also 2 whole chickens (which turned out excellent, by the way!) and I brined them for about 4 hours the... -
First Smoke in a Thunderstorm

First Smoke in a Thunderstorm
Well, yesterday I smoked 2 whole chickens in my newly modified ECB. By the way, it was my first ever smoke and the results were very good. Even though as soon as I threw the chickens on and got the temp. stable I was hit with what felt like hurricane force winds (ok slight exageration!) and...
