    A Frozen Propane Tank ?

    I had just finished up a spatch chicken yesterday afternoon and was trying to move the propane bottle. All of a sudden it seemed to have gotten very heavy and I couldn't figure it out. Turns out that it had frozen to the concrete patio and had ice all over the bottom 1/2. I have never seen...

    low and slow for chicken?

    Flash, or anyone else for that matter, is this delicious sounding sauce to be used as a dipping sauce or how is it used ?

    I am about to do a mailbox mod to my Masterbuilt and have a question.

    I have the propane version, 2 door and am about 3/4 done with doing the mod. I took the brace off of the smoker and am ready to cut out the back of the mail box. Unlike all the other pictures of my smoker that I can find on the internet, mine has 2 vent holes already cut into the sides. I was...

    First time jerky making prep

    I have never heard of sausage or ground beef jerky. How do you make it so it sticks together like a piece of beef jerky would ?

    Beef Jerky: Ten Pounds, Two Types (with Pics)

    I did your peppered jerky recipe and I am a new hero to my wife who looovvvvvveeeeesssss jerky. A few lessons learned were: 1) Try and keep a consistent length and thickness. 2) Try and fix my smoker so that I can keep a 150+/- temp. I think that is the reason mine came out so dark and...

    How do I cool down my smoker ?

    It's a MasterbuiltPro, 30", propane. I am about to try to make some jerky which calls for a temp of 150. Since I am new to this game I thought that I would give the smoker a test drive. Well, I set it as if I were about to put the meat in, set it to the lowest settings, and opened a beer. The...

    Another 1st timer for TriTip and I need some guidance.

    That's pretty much how mine looked dirtsailor, beautiful. So according to your temps and timings I was within reason. All of us like our meat nice and rare.

    I want to "mailbox" mod my MB Dual Fuel Pro, 30"

    and was wondering if it would work out ok. I use the AMZNP ? and it would work a lot better if it were in an external housing like the mailbox. So, this is a picture of the side of my MB showing the vent and an attachment that is meant to be able to attach the propane tank. I never use it for...

    Another 1st timer for TriTip and I need some guidance.

    Well the results are in and unfortunately I have no pictures of the finished product and there were no left overs. It was well liked but not so much to me. I was a bit disappointed. I cooked 2, two lb tri-tips and it only took 1.5 hours until 145 IT. I couldn't believe that they were done so I...

    Another 1st timer for TriTip and I need some guidance.

    I saw the pictures where it was drawn out how to cut it. The grain apparently runs in 2 different directions so halving it sorta, helps isolate the 2 different grains. It's amazing the stuff I learn here. :yahoo:

    Another 1st timer for TriTip and I need some guidance.

    That is interesting and I have a torch. So when do I sear it, is it before the aluminum foil or after ? A lot of good info here, thanks guys.
