I should smoke them to medium rare, cool them and then slice with a meat-slicer. Eye of round is super lean. It doesn't really mater what grade. It's only good sliced deli thin.

I've got the original smoke with the gateway. It's my workhorse that I have complete trust in.

I like the Signals, there's just a slight distrust thing I have there. I love the graphs and the fact it has WIFI. I wish they made a gateway for the Smokex4. That would be a no brainer.

I think the problem may be with the do not disturb settings on the phone. You need to exempt the Thermoworks app.. This is why I've never really trusted the Signals vs. my Smoke for overnight cooks. I've also had the Signals just lock up on me before which is just lovely on a reverse sear...

I've used Fruitawood Post Oak and it does great. You may find you need less of it than the stuff you've been using. The wood chunks you get at most places is kiln dried which isn't necessarily a bad thing but a lot of them over dry it and there's no moisture left. It burns too quickly and...

I've had cooks take up to 18 hours at 225 with maybe a 15 pound brisket. I cook 250 to 275 and even up to 300 depending on where I am during the cook on my offset. On the WSM 250 works well. 275 works well too. I don't typically go much beyond that. On the offset it seems to take about 12...

Dang, that looks good!

I've gotta applaud you. They are a PITA to try to cancel service with. I'm too nice. I had to get my wife to call them.

I guess but that was a ridiculous test. It'd be meaningful if he regulated the temp on both. The B&B ran super low compared to the Kingsford the whole time because he made the vent settings equal. The B&B has much larger briquettes. The Kingsford will have more surface area lit. I get the...

Everything looks fantastic, Kemper!

Mostly pecan wood, but there was some oak in there. I'm trying to finish off my woodpile. I'm probably going to go all post oak next time I buy wood which should be soon. The brisket took about 11 hours. I mostly ran around 250 but bumped it up in the stall and up to about 285 after the...

I cooked some brisket and sausage for Easter this year. Trimmed Top has a scalp on the fat cap thanks to the meat packers. Seasoned with Franklin rubs. Seasoned. Fired up! Franklin smoker doing work! 4th Slice. With some homemade lockhart style sausage. Some homemade Jalapeno...

Your vent settings are what I use for a really low and slow cook with the Billows (150 to 180). I'd open up the top more and see if you run better that way. I find the billows works best when it's not struggling either way. I like the damper but the reason I got it was mostly to be able to do...

As a science fiction and fantasy fan I'm blown away by how much stuff is out there compared to what was around when I was a kid. The quality of stuff that I don't even like that much is still head and shoulders above most of what we had. Any of the Star Wars shows or movies would have blown...

I think it's a fan made concept trailer. I think it's a cool idea, though. I've got an 8 year old so I see a lot of kids movies in the theater. I did so see the new Dune and really enjoyed it.

I've seared on cast iron in the house several times when it's raining or I'm being lazy. It will smoke up your house if you are doing it right. You may not have a happy wife. Mine thankfully doesn't mind.

I have stopped after the 3rd minute before. If I'm worried I'll check it with instant read thermometer. Usually 4 minutes is ok, though, if I let the steak rest before searing. I'd rather have a weaker sear on one side than an overcooked steak.

I saw that when Tuffy Stone posted that picture on Twitter. I somehow doubt we see the WSM in different colors, but I'm hopeful. I think they are one-offs for the class but who knows.

When I sear on the charcoal grill I use the Slow N Sear and the spin grate to do the "Cold Grate Method". I think it's key to get your charcoal at it's absolute peak heat. On the WSK, Try putting the charcoal grate in the high position, or get the charcoal piled up using charcoal baskets or...

I didn't get that across I guess, but the DeWalt is superior. It's a fantastic tool. I loaned it to my wife one time to use as work for something and none of the women in her office could figure out how to work it. I thought that was pretty funny. I should have explained it but it just...
