    Double Barrel Build - Indirect Heat

    Do you have any plates or baffles between the two stacks coming out of the firebox and the grates or is it just direct heat straight up the tubes? (besides the dampers, that is).

    Help me find the right smoker

    Have you considered building a UDS or Ugly Drum Smoker? They're easy to build, easy to use, you can build one for around $100.00 and you can smoke more in one at one time than in any of those Brinkmanns you posted. And on the plus side, you can get 14-16 hours smokes on a drum that a charcoal...

    ECB charcoal to propane conversion

    Great Idea! I have a turkey fryer that I've never used and a Char-Grill water smoker that I picked out of the trash so I think I'll give this a try.

    Cut My Next Year's Smokin' Wood

    I saw that picture when you first posted it Alex. That's a great setup. I've had 2 people promise me whole apple trees and I'm hoping to find someone down in pecan country that might want to swap some apple for pecan.

    Cut My Next Year's Smokin' Wood

    Last Spring I cut down 21 maples, so I have plenty of that and I burn mostly oak up at our lake place for campfire cooking so I brought some of that home too. One neighbor has a mulberry tree that overhangs my lot and it trashed the place with berries this year, so I trimmed the limbs back to...

    What to do with loins?

    PignIt, 140º is when I took them from the smoker. I foiled it to keep the juices in and let them cool to slice.

    What to do with loins?

    Just last week I cut a loin in two and brined the halves over night. I smoked them at 225º -250º until they hit 140º. I foiled them and let them sit until they cooled, then sliced them into chops to freeze and either pan fry or grill later. They didn't last very long, they're all gone now.

    Is it wrong to bring Blackberry deer hunting?

    You can take all the cell phones you want to our deer camp. There ain't a tower around for miles and no one's ever got a signal out there. You could maybe play games on it though.

    Thanksgiving Fatty?

    I sure do. I'm going to make several fatties using turkey sausage seasoned with a little more sage and poultry seasoning and I'm going to whip up a batch of stuffing made with bread cubes, sage, poultry seasoning and chopped onions, apples, and cranberries and moisten it with some chicken...

    Sawdust

    Actually, I'm now thinking about hosing out my chipper shredder and running some branches through with the smallest grate in place.

    Sawdust

    LOL....Guess I'll have to find a blade for my saw with REAL coarse teeth.

    Sawdust

    I never thought about using sawdust until just recently I saw the YouTube video of a guy putting cheese on the warming rack of his gas grill then partially filling a tin can with sawdust and sticking a hot soldering iron in the can under the cheese. I'm thinking about giving that a try. I think...

    UDS overnights when cold

    Cool! I've been wonderin' about that myself. I just moved my drum up onto my deck on a layer of patio pavers for the Winter so I can just open my slider and check/fill/empty it. But by doing so, I've taken it from the shelter from beside my shed and raised it up about 3 feet higher into the...

    I'll Be A Whole Drum Corps Myself Soon

    I'm pretty sure that the lids he's brought me so far are have been set out to the street as trash. The first one has so much dirt caked on it that it looks like it was buried in mud and the secone one has the wood gone from it's handles and the vent is dented and needs some hammerin' to get it...

    A Garlic Chipotle Beer-B-Q hunka pork

    Hiya Jeanie, I don't think those Knorr cubes are out yet in my part of the country. A lady on a cooking board I joined told us about them several months ago and though I've looked in about 5 different major stores, I can't find them. What section of the store do you find them in? I've been...

    chimney starters

    Since I started drizzling a little vegetable oil over the newspaper in the bottom of my chimney before filling it and lighting it, it flames up a lot higher and all the coals seem to get lit in about half the time.

    I'll Be A Whole Drum Corps Myself Soon

    Around here we have what I call "Metal Pickers". They are folks that drive around on the day before trash set out day and also on trash day and scavenge anything that's metal in the junk and turn it in for it's salvage value. I stopped one about a week ago and asked him if he ever saw Weber...
