Hi Jeff The two smokes I have done so far worked with the vents tightened up to 25% or less. With the vents open, I think too much air will get in. It seems like reducing as many variables as possible is the way to go. My last smoke got away from me a bit. I think it was because I left the top...

Hi Larry, Yes, threw some short ribs in when I got up. I won't bore you with another picture of a butt. It came out great. I'm torn about injecting or not. It was really good, but I think I like the clean meat only flavor of just rub on the outside. The stokerlog did stop working once and...

Threw in a butt to put the new stoker/stokerlog through the paces. I used the Chris Lilly injection. I have never injected before and I'll probably not do much in the future, but I figured I'd give a "shot". I also set up the twitter (follow "stokerupdate") just to see how it works...

Thanks again for your help and to Rob, as well. I had a feeling it was something simple. Anyway, I got the stoker log and the even updates to my phone working, so I am all set. I'll be giving a test this weekend. Keith

I found this while I was looking for some info: <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> I think their are a couple of secrets to using the Stoker. 1) On low temp cooks, I just use a propane torch to light a...

All set guys! It was simple..I had the pc and the stoker with the same exact ip. I changed the last number on the stoker ip by one and the page popped up. Thanks again for your help and sorry about the mistake. Keith

Hi Rob, Thanks a lot for your help! So, when I ping the ip with the stoker off I get this: And when I turn it on, I get this: I am unclear about what you mean concerning using a "flash". Sorry, I grow grass for living. Thanks again for the help. Keith

Hi Ryan, I received mine on a Friday. I unpacked it when I got home from work and had it up to temp by 8:00 pm. Most people here seem to suggest using a minion, getting it started (I used a blowtorch) and then putting the meat in and let the stoker deal with it from there. That worked like a...

@Amir, Thanks for the response. I have tried restarting both the stoker and laptop (many times). I watched yankeeRob's video again and set it up precisely as he described (static IP). I have tried it on a different laptop and with both firefox and IE explorer (refreshing that many times, as...

This is where I am at right now. Very frustrated...

Hi all, I connected my stoker to my laptop per YankeeRob's instructions. I got a successful ping but when I type the IP into the browser, the interface won't come up. I am assuming that because I got the successful ping, that this some kind of firewall thing. I did try to shut my wireless off...

So, to finish up, the stoker experience was fantastic! For the last few hours of the cook, I was using the "blower off for 5 minutes" whenever I opened the pit and it was pegged on 250 plus or minus a few degrees all afternoon, despite it being fairly breezy out. The lump (cowboy) presented no...

Here's the final product: And dinner: And a little closer: I'll post a few more thoughts later.
