Newbie from Utah -- What are some of everyone's favorite pellet grill accessories?
Hello & welcome. My favorite thing that I buy regularly for my smoker is meat. It just loves meat! All kidding aside- I don't have a pellet gun - but to me that’s just one of a variety of ways of generating smoke & heat. The method you choose is largely personal preference - and as you... -
WSM - willing to give it one last shot before giving up
Initially I had issues with the WSM running too hot as well. As others have indicated- too much fuel (and sometimes too much air) is the culprit. I generally start with about 1/2 a ring of charcoal. I used to do a chimney that was full for starting but found it was way too much. When I’m...- bass

Gravity Feed Cabinet Smoker
So needless to say, this project has been going on for some time now, at least 6 or 8 months. Here's a few pix of the gravity feed in action: Last weekend I hosted the band and AV team & their families for a BBQ at the house. Did some ribs & chicken, along with smoked stuffed jalapeños...- bass

Gravity Feed Cabinet Smoker
Hi All, I know I dont post here much, but this forum and Jeff's website have been a tremendous help to me in my smoking foray I started smoking back in 2012 - 2013 timeframe. In 2016 I started a new job and a bunch of my new co-workers are into smoking meats. Several times a year we do...- bass

First time short ribs - alot of fat
Hi - I did a smoke today along the same lines of this: Beef Ribs from Shoprite. Not trying to hijack a thread but this one seemed to be died out and I thoguth it wold be better than starting a new one to discuss same thing. I wanted to buy pork ribs but the store had none, but they had...- bass

Mini Butt & Cabbage
I have to give props on the cabbage idea to one of my co-workers, Kris. but I'm gonna tweak it a little next time. -
Mini Butt & Cabbage
All in all turned out pretty good. The pork roast was on the WSM for about 6 hours at 225 from 9 to 3; she did the stall for about 2 hrs, stubbornly clinging to 160 deg. I was getting hungry so I bumped the cooker to 250, threw a few more coals in and went and mowed the lawn. I use standard... -
Been around a while but recently moved
It was a long overdue move. Traded the congestion of the NYC suburbs for a comfortable wooded acre + sized lot out in a very rural part of NJ, literally on the edge of one of the largest protected forest lands on the east coast. The move also gives me more time for smoking due to changes in...- bass

2 Bad probes on ironwood 650?!?!
Hi, while I don't have direct experience with your smoker, smoker probes are basically type K thermocouples. I'm assuming the probes unplug from the controller with a small plug where you can check probe continuity. if you have a DMM (multi-meter) you could check the probes for continuity. If...- bass

Mini Butt & Cabbage
So its August 1. Jerry's Birthday, Rock On ! So I've got some tunes on and and I'm smoking a small bone in pork butt (about 4 lbs). following Jeff Phillps' recent suggestion of using BBQ sauce for the wetting agent to help the rub stick and have the butt fat cap down in a baking dish... -

Hi all.... I've been a member here a little while but recently moved from congested Central NJ to the Pinelands of Southern NJ. My new place sits on the northern edge of Wharton State Forest. A bunch of my co-workers are into smoking as well as the pastor at my new church smokes on a BGE...- bass

PSA on Pellet Storage
Pellets would draw moisture up through the concrete through osmosis, its the moisture that breaks down the pellet; they are held together by high compressive forces in the manufacturing process. Storing pet food bags on concrete floor is a similar no-no; to the point that it would be a...- bass

New Years "Un-Smoke"
Pork came out pretty good. pulled it out mid afternoon, let it sit covered in foil for an hour on the counter before slicing it. Meat pretty much falling off the bone. The wife cooked up a mess of beans we thought were butterbeans but they are a different kind of bean called fava bean... -
New Years "Un-Smoke"
Yep. 10:30 in the morning and its 11 deg. outside. I'm happy with my indoor experiment for today. As to the WSM - yeah, I find that if I try the minion method of loading it up with briquets and adding a few lit coals, the whole thing runs too hot. Last year I bought a BBQ guru digital... -
New Years "Un-Smoke"
Forgive me but I just dont do cold weather well; and I'm not going to spend the wee hours of New Years tending the WSM in single digit temps. I've got my asbestos undies on so I can take your wusrt :) Anyhow: I've got an 8 lb pork shoulder. I read all the stuff on the internet about the...
