Hi guys,
Apple cider and beef short ribs... Never thought it's gonna be that good! Very simple method - 2 hours open smoke, 2 house in a foil pan with apple cider, wrapped, and 30 min rest.
Had this very nice rack of 3 ribs. Sprinkled it with a rub from my local supplier - we call it...
I have a 1 1/2 year old MB 20050716 Masterbuilt Propane smoker with the glass door. It worked fine for about 4 smokes, but now, it will not stay lit. When I go to start it, i push in the selector and turn it counterclockwise to high like it saves. When I hit the igniter it roars to life, and...
I initially got into smoking around 8 or so months ago and really found a passion for it. When I started at first I was writing down everything in a notepad to keep track of exactly what I did so I could do it again if it was great or never do it again if it sucked.
But I didn't have the...
Hey guys. Just to clarify, I'm smoking on a pit boss 820 pellet grill. I'm planning to smoke my next brisket and could use some pointers. The first brisket I smoked was 12 lbs. untrimmed. I put the brisket in and 10PM , smoked at 250 and wrapped at about 4 AM. A mistake I made was probing the...
Hey there, I was wondering if someone could give me an opinion on this. I started smoking a 6 lb brisket last night at 11pm at 180 degrees. Woke up at 630, wrapped it in butcher's paper and turned it up to 225 degrees. I came left my house for an hour and a half, came back and had a pellet jam...
I'm relatively new to smoking but here is my situation. I started to smoke a 6 lb brisket at 185 degrees at 11 pm last night. I woke up at 630 am wrapped it in butcher's paper and then turned it up to 225 degrees. Everything was fine until I left the house for an hour and a half and came back...
I found this around my house, stainless steel, please see pics attached. I want to know if i can make a smoker with these. I was thinking like a vertical smoker, but i don't know if is thick enough for example, and i would like some ideas please, and what else would i need. I have a gas bbq...
Hello!
Starting in the new forum as I am new and I just bought this thing from someone in town for $15 and I do not know how to use it as I have never used a smoker before myself. It is open at the bottom and there are no vents anywhere. A lid, two bowls of some kind. I figure for $15 if I...
Someone told me to get a pit thermometer since you cant trust the ones in the door of the unit. My new smoker is saying (via that untrustworthy one in the door) that it wont go below 245 even with the vents as closed as they will go, which is about 2/3rds of the way. I need a thermometer that...
I'm looking to purchase my first pellet grill.
I would usually use it for cookouts burgers, sausage, steaks and on occasion roasts and such... I'm looking for recommendations....
The reason why I am looking into a pellet grill is because of the flavor...
Hello all,
Please forgive me for I have sinned. Guilty is the verdict.
I’m new here and I need to confess. I’ve used this smoker once on a 12hr brisket years ago. and my life got crazy and I’ve neglected it for years of non-use.
is this smoker salvageable? If it is, what should I purchase and...
Hey, fellow bbq enthusiasts. So I am having a smoker built from a 100g propane tank, and a 40g tank used for the fire box. Just wondering if any of you have a smoker around that size, and if so how do you like the smoker? Any recommendations, tips or suggestions? So far my main request is...
Is there a specific forum in here for posting smokers for sale? I don't want to post in the wrong place but this seemed like a good thread to start.
I am selling a MyronMixonSmokers MMS-60. This is one of their trademark H20 smokers fueled by burning wood under the water chamber.
I absolutely...
Hey Guys,
Is it best to remove the fat from a pork butt prior to smoking? I am wondering how well the rub will do if it is on the fat rather than directly on the meat?
Thanks!
Hey guys,
I am new to smoking and am very interested in learning different techniques. I don’t have the best of equipment, but I think what I have will do the job. I have a Char Griller Legacy and recently put a Side Fire Box on it. I am wanting to smoke a pork butt for BBQ on Easter. I have...
Hello everyone. Newbie here. I have a question about my Masterbuilt John McLemore Signature Series Propane Smoker. I just acquired this smoker over the weekend, and had the thought of smoking on it yesterday. I lit the burner, which worked fine. It had a nice small blue flame. As I turned the...
So here is the deal. I know this has been asked and all the threads I read tend to give me a different answer so I wanted to though this out there.
I bought An OJ Highland lastnight online and am waiting for it to be delivered. 2 things I want to do during assembly is the seal the 2 halves on...
I’m pretty new to this and have read a lot of good reviews from here.
I have an old braunfels smoker rusted with some nickel size holes here and there. My main concerns are how to repair the holes ( what do I use? ) and how much rust should be present if any.
Will post pictures shortly.
Any and...
Hi all. New to smoking and decided to start by making my own smoker out of a large filing cabinet with 4 pull out shelves.
I’ll be using a propane Coleman grill as the heat source to smoke the wood chips so it will never get too hot. May occasionally use burning coals in a basket but for now...
Hello all, I hope you are well and safe! Crazy times. I ordered a pork shoulder from Snake River Farms. I didn't realize it would be this big (17lbs.) and would be more than just the butt. I have smoked butts on a BGE and am now using an off-set smoker, but never smoked anything this big...
