    Dump Newbie Question

    Thanks, Tallbum. I'm disappointed just a little bit but not complaining. It was a test for a friend to see how difficult it was going to be to cook a large amount of food, and the experiment was successful although the results were as I said, disappointing. I smeared the wings with mustard...

    Dump Newbie Question

    Thanks guys, yes it is 18" square. I managed to get 28-30 on each rack. They are fairly good, but I was not satisfied with the results. I had problems with my new controller. When I built it I thought I put in a 20 Amp circuit breaker and it was a 15 Amp. I discovered this after it kept...

    Dump Newbie Question

    I have three-eighteen square inch cooking racks. If I buy average-sized chicken wings, how many wings would you think I should be able to cook on each rack?

    Smokin-It Model 4 and DIN300A Controller

    Great, sm0kin, let me know how you progress. I would like to see a smoker with a temperature sensor port on the back so you could plug in with the sensor of your choosing.

    Smokin-It Model 4 and DIN300A Controller

    Yes, Sm0kin. I chose a larger box for stability and because I had a relay in it before. Pics attached.

    Smokin-It Model 4 and DIN300A Controller

    I would, I have both because I made the same mistake, but I decided to keep it for emergencies. I have a relay I can use if I need it. Now I have three. LOL!

    Smokin-It Model 4 and DIN300A Controller

    I can do better than that. Attached is the PDF of the specific product (if it uploaded it). Or you can go to www.thermomart.com and try to find it. Here is the link on Amazon I have had the Smokin-It for four or five years. It is an amazing smoker. Also, another thing I like about this...

    Smokin-It Model 4 and DIN300A Controller

    I would like to clarify the model number of this device. It is a DIN300A-30Amp, and not the 10Amp DIN300A

    Smokin-It Model 4 and DIN300A Controller

    Thanks for the table, Sonny E, It will come in handy. Yes, I did talk to Steve at Smokin-It. He told me the model I have could not be upgraded to his digital controller. I have had a lot of trouble with built-in temp controllers in the past, so I think having a separate controller is more...

    Smokin-It Model 4 and DIN300A Controller

    I have had my Smokin-It Model 4 for several years. I absolutely love it. Hands down, the best smoker I have ever had. It has a standard analog temp setting potentiator and it's a real pain to set to the right temperature much less keep within certain parameters while cooking. They are selling...

    Using A Water Pan For Temperature Control

    Yep. I used to cook some succulent ribs, flashed over a hot bed of mesquite, that at one time melted my new cast aluminum grill. Bottom fell right out and started a grass fire on my lawn. I think I still carry pieces of those ribs in my molars today, but boy they were good. In the sixties, the...

    Using A Water Pan For Temperature Control

    Thanks, Dave for reminding me.   I confess, you're right. That kind of thinking can lead to some pretty serious compulsive obsessive disorders you know? Actually, I wasn't thinking so much about getting an accurate temperature set, as I was complaining as to how long it took to set the correct...

    Using A Water Pan For Temperature Control

    I'm inclined to agree with both of  you. On my next round I'll try the sand. Whatever I did, the Boston Butt  smells delicious. I learned something else today. The brine solution I used smells like ripe olives. It must be the molasses. I can't wait to taste the meat. I refrigerated it in brine...

    Using A Water Pan For Temperature Control

    I've had my Smokin-It, Big Daddy for about a year now and it continues to cook up some great meat dishes, but today I am trying something new. While the Big Daddy is a great smoker, with its 1500 watt element and analog heat controller, it continues to be a chore to maintain a steady temperature...

    Smokin' Baby Backs In My Big Daddy

    Sounds like you need to contact Smokin' It and get them to fix it. Might be a bad thermostat. Give them a call and let us know how you came out. How much liquid did you put in the water pan? That happens to many smokers if you overfill it. I paid around $1,600 for  the Big Daddy, which included...

    Smokin' Baby Backs In My Big Daddy

    Final Results on Orange-Marmalade/Sriracha Baby Back Ribs. I have to say I was somewhat surprised. I thought they would be too dry, because I cooked them for the first three hours at 190... They were not dry With all that honey and orange-marmalade in the glaze, I though they would be too...

    Smokin' Baby Backs In My Big Daddy

    Pictures before resting. Total cooking time 6:30 I hope these will be done and not dry. The ones in the rear were not glazed. Which looks better?
