For his first cook on the smoker he did 2 beer can chickens. I was very shocked how well the temp stayed at around 248 degrees. We didn't mess with any vents. The highest it got was 257. The cook lasted 3 hours but i left the smoker burning for 5 hours before closing the vents to see how...

Thank you for this information!

I didn't take many pictures yet but i got the steelers logo on it. I still might paint but that is going to cause me a lot of taping now since the logo is on. [/URL][/IMG] The logo was sand blasted so that it won't come off due to the high heat. More to come...

So has anyone had issues with painting the Mini Smokey Joe smoker? The reason i ask is a lot of "Car" guys in my neighborhood are telling me not to paint it. They said that the high heat engine paints are toxic ( i understand the paint is only on the outside ). They also told me that it will...

Thanks. I'll just use it to make the bag and seal it without out vacuuming it.

So i haven't bought my pork belly yet but i plan to very soon. This time around i have a food saver and food saver rolls. Instead of buy a bag large enough to fit the pork belly while curing in the fridge i thought i would just make my own bag with the foodsaver. My question is can i suck the...

Thanks V_Rocco! My wife loved that deal and has already ordered it!!

So my Et-732 is falling apart. Pieces are falling off every day :). Its time for a new one. I see they have a new long range ET-733. I'm leaning towards that. I saw the igrill2 and thought that was cool but after reading about the range i decided against it. Do you guys recommend the ET-733...

Jose, It looks like they were using direct cooking in the recipe. I'm assuming you did a indirect cook with those times. Do you think the indirect worked better? I know i like the BBQ bath.

I never seem to have issues with minion. You just have to make sure you have the coals lit fully before dumping them in the smoker. Also are you using a portable thermometer ? You aren't going by the one on the lid are you? My lid thermometer was way off, like 60 degrees. I mean even if...

Started with a propane grill. Found that i liked smokers. Started with a cheap brinkman bullet smoker and new it had to be better than this. Found this site. Bought a 18.5 WSM. Fell in love with charcoal. Bought the 22.5 OTG. My son really started to get into cooking so i bought him the...

So i ended up picking this one: http://www.foodsaver.com/vacuum-sealers/FSFSSL2430-DTCK.html I had a 20% coupon, which i forget what i was or i would post it, but you can find it by searching March promo codes. Total price was 77.03 shipped.

So i am in the market for my first foodsaver. I have 0 experience with one. I was looking around and i saw this deal on the foodsaver site: http://www.foodsaver.com/vacuum-sealers/FSFSSL0322-002.html?src=N4FEORG Basically it says it is a $199 with 100 bucks off so it is $99. Right in my...

Thanks Robert.

I'm going to reopen this older post since it is about painting. I think i read some of you guys have used the grey primer and others have not used any primer at all. Can you get away without priming the pot? Or should i do that? Do you sand the primer down after with 400 grit? I'm doing a...

Very nice job!! I can tell you that the roadside chicken recipe here has people acting like i am a great cook. I can't tell you how much praise i get from this chicken. Its like all my other cooking was bad till i started cooking it. My family now requests this chicken on a regular basis.

What Thermometer are you guys ordering for these smokers? I saw the one Chris listed at the top of these forums, but every picture it looks like you guys are using a different one. Is this the one? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000XEBFHA/tvwb-20 If so can you redo the link so that...

I'll give my input. I recommend the 22 OTG over the 22 OTS. I don't have a Performer but if money wasn't an issue i would get a 22 inch Performer over a 22 OTG. I started out with a Propain grill. Then i got my smoker (18.5 WSM) and loved it. So much i started following everyone on here...

Great looking Ribs! Its awesome to have the kid helping and being interested in things like this. You actually feel like you are passing on knowledge that they will have for the rest of their life!
