    Coleslaw Recipes?

    Something that is good is to add honey roasted peanuts/cashews to your slaw. I have been hooked on this with pulled pork or ribs. Give it a try!

    Masterbuilt 560 tips

    I did order the box insert and hopper lid. I think the shield and drip pan brackets would be nice but I haven’t used a drip pan yet. Ill save up for those down the road.

    Masterbuilt 560 tips

    Did you get any of those upgraded parts for yours? I see that the inner wall of the fire box is an issue with heat. I believe I am going to get the stainless sleeve from LSS customs to protect it. I love this cooker and like you said it has held temperature pretty steady.

    Masterbuilt 560 tips

    Picked up some B&B charcoal like you suggested. Today I used the lump coal(mesquite) to do some ribs. The taste was great and this was the best round of ribs since getting the cooker. Used the charcoal along with apple wood for the smoke.

    Gladly would share! Been reading a lot here since joining. I see walkerwoods jerk seasoning is a good chicken seasoning that many have talked about. So I am learning with the cheap stuff before going all out.

    Jerk Thighs on smoker

    Tried a jerk chicken cook today on my new charcoal smoker. Set temp at 400 and laid them skin down to get the charring going. To my surprise they blackened up so fast(10 min) so I had to quickly start moving them off of the searing grates. They tasted really good and the juice was great...

    Getting the right amount of smoke for taste

    I agree. Right now I am just learning how the smoker reacts to settings and how much wood does the best for ribs. I am not trying to move between different types of meat. Just want to learn ribs and chicken and ease my way along and get these right first. What is TBS?

    Getting the right amount of smoke for taste

    The ribs both looked good but the one set did look like too much bark to me. He didn’t get much of a smoke ring he said. Is that because the ribs were hanging vs. laying horizontal? Thanks for the videos.

    Getting the right amount of smoke for taste

    Just picked up my first smoker. It is a Masterbuilt gravity fed. Using charcoal and either apple or oak wood chunks. Have done 2 different days of ribs. The first was light on the smoke taste and the second was a lot heavier. I am just curious what serious smokers shoot for. Is there a...

    It stays pretty windy here as well. Luckily our back patio is in a location where the house blocks the wind. I will be on the lookout for some of the B&B charcoal. Thanks for the help!

    Masterbuilt 560 tips

    I just recently picked up this gravity fed smoker and am in the learning process. I see through videos and manual instructions that putting a piece of chunk wood or chips in the ash bin will help with providing smoke. The chips burn too fast and the chunks really never take off well enough to...

    Getting the right amount of smoke for taste

    Hello everyone, I am looking to understand smoking meats the best way. Do you have any tips on how much lump wood you are using for cooks? Just backyard smoking here but would like to learn a little on when to stop burning wood and when too much smoke over takes the taste. Just looking to...
