    Just two smokes in and im converted to a stick burner...

    I'll take any suggestions for sure, I will try this exact method next time. I am pretty new to this, I had an electric smoker a couple years ago but probably only smoked meat about 8 times total. Thanks! Any suggestions on a pork loin? Got two of them about 4 lbs each. I am rubbing and wrapping...

    Just two smokes in and im converted to a stick burner...

    Hello SC! A correction to this... the ratio was close to 3-2-1... but the actual hours was more like 2 hours 15 mins, 1 hour, 45 mins.

    where/how to mount a spot for a maverick probe to hang

    I have a OK Joe Highland and I want to use the maverick remote thermometer to keep track of the internal temp of the smoker. There is no where to hang the probe thermometer inside. Anyone ever mod for this or have any ideas? I am new to this smoker and until I get much better at temp control I...

    Recommend to me a grill / smoker combo

    how difficult were the mods to complete? im not very good with that kind of stuff... computers are more my speed, haha. But I would be willing to do what it takes to make it a good smoker/grill combo and love to learn.

    Recommend to me a grill / smoker combo

    I have a MES electric smoker but I don't like how small it is and difficult to clean. I was hoping for the grill and smoker combo because I like to grill more than smoke... but would like to have the option for a good smoke when time permits. I'd rather not have separate units.

    Also considering the Char-Griller Duo Black 3-Burner (40,800-BTU) Liquid Propane Gas Grill with a smoker box attachment (Char-Griller Multi Function 250-sq in Portable Charcoal Grill). This would give me a propane grill, a charcoal grill, and a smoker...

    Recommend to me a grill / smoker combo

    I am looking for a grill and smoker combo. Probably something like a grill with an offset smoker box? I would like to be able to grill a large amount of food (family of 7) and also be able to smoke ribs, brisket, chicken, etc when I want to. Please provide a link to the product if you can, also...

    First Boston Butt w/Q View

    Alright... pulled the BB at 9:30PM at temp of 205 degrees.  Wrapped in foil and put in cooler until 10:30PM.  I made homemade coleslaw while it was resting and also JJ Finishing sauce. Unwrapped it and pulled it... very tender, not a super smokey flavor, but it was there.  Next time I will make...

    First Boston Butt w/Q View

    BB went into smoker at 7:45 at 220-225 degrees.  3 hours in and internal temp is at 110 degrees.  I've bumped up the smoker to 245 to try to get out of the danger zone by 11:45.  Seems to be working so far.

    First Boston Butt w/Q View

    During the last hour of seasoning the new MES, the Maverick was giving temps about 25-30 degrees higher than the unit.  I tested the Maverick in boiling water and got the exact 210 degrees I was looking for.   When I set the smoker at 275, the Maverick was reading 305.  I opened the door to get...

    Your guess is as good as mine... 9 pounder... hopefully 12 hours - 16 hours to finish? Hopefully!
