    Using Kiln Dried Lumber?

    Is there any set back to using kiln dried, untreated lumber for smoking? A friend of mine gave me a box of hickory lumber scraps to use. He said to soak them before using so they don't burn too quickly. Any feedback?

    Chemical smell?

    I've been using fruit wood from a local orchard. I purchased the wood in the spring and was told it was cut last season. I have both apple and pear. They said it was good for smoking. I've noticed a pungent smell to the smoke for both types, but have mainly used just the apple. It seems to me to...

    Seasoning wood in containers?

    My neighbor trimmed their silver maple tree and I got to take the wood for helping out. I thought I would use some 20 gal containers to season it in - easy storage and access. I checked the wood this morning and there was condensation in the container. Using Rubbermaid Brute cans. Wood was fresh...

    Smoker Purchase Advice?

    Bass Pro retails them for around $930. I then had a reduction due to some scrapes to the paint on the side (this one was in best condition) and a discount because I am a Boy Scout leader and my son is a scout. They get knocked around in shipping on the truck. I told The manufacturer about it.

    Smoker Purchase Advice?

    I put the smoker out today. First time outside. I had to finish the patio and I had also waited threeonths for an order from Horizon of the baffle, charcoal box and cover. Very nice grill. Haven't seasoned it or used it yet. Looking forward to it.

    Smoker Purchase Advice?

    I looked at the 16 inch Horizon today. Not sure I noticed a convection plate though, but there was a slight baffle built in. I also noticed that I would be able to pop out the main grates in the barrel and put in the plate from the fire box - and that made room for a beer can chicken or bird...

    East Texas Beer Can Chicken

    I'm trying to figure out how you get the lid to close on the grill. I can never get the lid to close in my offset smoker to grill these.

    Smoker Purchase Advice?

    Old school We are doing that today so we can see the difference for ourselves. I was eyeing those up. Can't say I have the budget per se - but if something is a better value we can make it work. Just need one good commission check!

    Smoker Purchase Advice?

    Eric Consider me a newbie at this. I'm ignorant of the terminology you used. Sorry. I bought a cheap smoker for $90 5 years ago and didn't know what I was doing. Now it is rusted out and I need to replace it - want to replace it with something better. While I tried smoking with it, I didn't...

    Smoker Purchase Advice?

    As I posted in my intro - I have been using a Brinkmann Smoke n Pit for about 5 years. The elements got the best of it and a leg rusted off. Time for a new one... I'm torn on some decisions with a new smoker after reading reviews and seeing some recommended modifications on barrel smokers. I...

    Hello from Hummelstown, Pa

I moved it yesterday to clean it for the season and one of the legs broke off. So, I'm on the market for a new smoker. I have my sights on the...
