    Possible to convert?

    So i have always loved taking my time smoking with a stick burning side box, and appreciating the outcome that much more... However, now im thinking i may want to switch to pellet so i dont have to monitor the smoker quite so much. Thus freeing up time to do other things in the smoking...

    Pulled brisket

    If i want my brisket "fall apart" tender, what internal temperature should i aim for? I usually go to about the 190-200 range and thinly slice, but this time I would like it to be fall apart tender? Thank you in advance!

    brisket question

    While there are more people that have more experience than I do, I have never heard of that. I leave my on, use a good dry rub, and spritz during the smoking process with a mixture of juices.

    Masterbuilt Pro dual fuel

    Thanks for the help Dave, I will mention it to her. She did her first full meal yesterday,(with some verbal instruction, she wanted to do it all herself), and she went with the chuncks instead of chips, which worked much better. She made a beer can chicken, mushrooms in a butter/garlic sauce...

    Masterbuilt Pro dual fuel

    A friend of mine recently bought one of these, as she wants to start learning how to smoke foods. I use an off set style smoker with a side box, so this one she bought is new to me. The problem she has been having is that even after soaking wood chips for 3 days, she says when she puts them in...

    Suggestions Please...

    Thanks for all the info from everyone. Like the idea of putting the au jus in the smoker to retain the flavor. I know mesquite is a strong flavor but so far it seems to have done just well with everything else I have smoked and is always a hit with the family. Guess my biggest question is that...

    Pro Delux grill/smoker

    Just wondering what some of the more "seasoned" members think of this particular grill/smoker. It comes from Menards and you have to buy the side box seperately, but for a cost of under $200 and being kinda new to this whole thing, just wondering if this would be a good one to "upsize" to from...

    Newbie here at SMF...and to Smoking.

    My name is Curt, but "gpa 2 1" works too. Live in NW Wisconsin and just recently started getting into smoking things for myself and my family. I have been to a couple cook outs where the meat was smoked, but never thought I would get into it. Boy was I wrong! Right now I have a small weber...
