    Instant read Thermometers

    So i was at a New Years Eve party and we were frying food but no one had a thermometer on them. So one of the guys there said he thought he had one in his car. (He is a manager at a restaurant.) He came out with a new Comark Digital Thermometer PDT300. He tested the food and i told him that i...

    trouble getting WSM hot enough, any tips?

    Also are you going by the lid thermometer? I found out last week that my lid thermometer was off by 60 degrees on the low side.

    smoking cheese

    This sounds good guys. I think they needed to add to the smoking cheese guide is to wrap it up and not eat it for a week. I do think i still have some left in the fridge so i'll try it tonight. I will try this again as it doesn't take much work to smoke it. Thanks again.

    New to WSM

    I'm not an expert at all and am new to using the WSM like you. From what i have seen: 1. This is normal. As you use your smoker it will gain all the grease and gunk that will seal your smoker better. Also your smoke doesn't need to be air tight. 2. The minion method is great for long cooks...

    smoking cheese

    I have a question. I think i know the answer but here goes. Looking at the smoking cheese guide on here it says: "Whatever you decide, make sure to choose high-quality cheese." Why is this? I tried to smoke cheese for the first time and it was very easy. I used 2 lit pieces of charcoal and...

    E732 screws

    I FOUND 1!. I bought the magnet and after trying for like 10 minutes searching the couch i put the magnet under the couch and moved it all around and it found one under the couch. Not sure how it got there. Maybe i pushed it through a seam. Still looking for the last one but just having one...

    Turkey Skin

    So i attempted my first turkey on Christmas Eve. It came out ok but i was hoping for the skin to look like everyone else's turkey, nice and dark. My did darken but it was more of a lighter brown then a dark redish color. I tried to maintain 330 temp for the entire cook. It ranged from 300...

    Lid thermometer

    Wow I did not realize how off my lid thermometer was off. My new maverick says it is around 60 degrees hotter. Is this normal? Can I do a boil check with the barbecue probe?

    E732 screws

    Ok so i opened my new E732 thermometer early so i could use it on my turkey tomorrow. So i'm putting the batteries in the remote and my son comes along and hits the back off the couch and into the pillows of the couch. The 2 little screws went into an area of the couch that i can not get...

    First turkey Rub question

    So i'm going to try my first Turkey this Christmas. I am going to keep it simple and buy a self basting Turkey. My question is that i don't want to use BBQ rub on it and i read to use that Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning. I don't believe i have ever tried a Creole seasoning. Is this too...

    probe questions

    So i just ordered my E-732 thermometer and i had a question on the usage. I've noticed some pictures and guides people use a potato to hold the probe to check the smoker temp. How does this work? how does it not give you the temp of the potato and not the smoker temp? Forgive me if this is...
