    I'm having a mental block. Are the temps higher or lower if taking the temp from the dome?

    KIngford Smoker

    Hey Guys, I was wondering if I could get your opinions on a smoker. I just saw a Kingsford on sale at BJ's for an unbelievable price. Smoker looked half decent, except no water pan. I currently use 2 Weber 18.5's and have had tremendous luck with them. 3 medals in my onlt 2 comps that I...

    14 Racks of Spares on my 22

    Sounds impressive Brett! I was wondering how to cook a large amount of ribs like that. How did you do it?? Rib Racks or rolling them or what?? Where did you put them all?? I'd be interested in knowing.

    Venison Roast

    Thanks Kevin. That makes sense. I was wondering to myself the same thing, of how the smoke was gonna penetrate the bacon, so that makes sense. What temps were thinking for med rare?? 145??

    Venison Roast

    Okay, Thanks guys. I do have it marinating in a Jack Daniels Teriyaki type marinade for a few days. I think I am gonna wrap it in bacon to see if that helps keep it moist. I've read a few things on it, so I figured I'd try it. I have some sugar maple rub that I'm gonna rub it with, then try it...

    The Horror!! Small brisket dilemma...

    Brian, Just smoke it the same way. It will just finish earlier. I guess you'll just have to buy more of them, or mix it up, like I'm gonna do. I'm gonna do a turkey and a brisket(8lbs). But your looking at the same cooking procedures no matter the weight.

    Brisket question about foiling

    Hey Bryan, Thats what it means. If you are gonna wrap it, wrap it around 160-165 until about 190 or it is fork tender. You might want to unwrap it a little earlier to get your bark darker. But wrap it in foil and put it back on the smoker around 160-165 internal.

    Smoked Turkey Breast - pan in or out?

    Hey Lew, I have always used my water pan with foil on it. It helps with temp control, since your not used to the Bullet. I have done alot of turkeys and they come out great. But that is my opinion.

    Venison Roast

    Does anybody have any ideas for marinades for a venison roast I plan on smoking over the weekend. I have some that I got off line, but was curious of what everybody uses. I'll probably have like 3 days to play with as far as getting it in the marinade. Its defrosting now. I'm gonna marinade it...

    4 briskets, 60 people, new to BBQing

    I would use the Briquettes. I have luck with them also. I use kingsford original. How big are your briskets?? I did 2 packers for a large party and it was just fine. I also cooked 2 boneless turkeys and had plenty of food. But I prefer the low and slow route, 225-235. I usually can do it with...

    Picnic Shoulder Trimming

    Hey Guys Happy Summer! I'm gonna smoke either a boston butt or a picnic shoulder tommorow am. I was wondering if i should trim the fat cap(rind) off the shoulder or can i leave it on there. It was a pain last time and i;d rather leave it on if i can. If i can get BB's I will, but I might have...

    Thinking about switching to lump

    Hey Craig, I have used both. I like lump. The only problem I had with it was on an overnight, and it burned out on me. Maybe my fault, but I think it burns alot faster than kingsford. I did obtain nice smoke rings. Give it a try, I think you'll like it. Also, the ashed are better at the end...
