    Anyone fit 4 whole briskets into a 22.5?

    I did 4 whole packers 12 -14 lbs. each over the 4th of July on my 22 WSM and had absolutely no problem fitting them in. They were slightly overlapped but that is of no issue because as they cook and shrink they will separate. I did them with high heat method and they came out great. The day...

    I am really stumped by my WSM.

    I cook 6 butts all the time on 18 WSM I have 2 18" and a 22" and never had the problem you described. One thing that caught my attention was you said "did cook 6 whole chickens split. After 4 hours, I couldn't get the temps over 160 degrees trying everything I could think of to do. Checked...

    High Temp Brisket vs. Low Slow, consensus?

    I have done it both ways and have to say that Low and Slow is the better of the two. As was said earlier much better bark and I feel better flavor all around, but High Heat is not bad with less chance of drying out. Not as flavorful in my opinion but I would not hesitate use high heat if time...

    EXCELLENT price on Foodsaver V2830

    I got mine today too. came in the middle of a snow storm. Yes it came with the 2 canisters and mason jar topper. also ordered 10 rolls of bags with it. It is quieter than our professional II model we have had for the last 2 or 3 years, it seems to take twice as long to get the air out but...

    EXCELLENT price on Foodsaver V2830

    That is a heck of a deal I don't really need another food saver right now as the one I have is working fine but I couldn't turn down this offer, I also ordered 10 rolls of bag material. Thanks again.

    First time butts

    Why not trying to make your own rub. There are lots of rub recipes for rubs on this board, use one as a base rub that sounds good to you and leave out or cut back on the spices that you think may give it too much heat. My wife doesn't like much heat either but she doesn't seem to mind what I...

    StokerLog Version 5 Preview

    I would just like to not only thank Amir again, but also those of you that are testing the new versions of Stoker log. Being that I am very limited on my computer knowledge I really appreciate those of you that are helping to get the bugs out of this new version. I will just be waiting in the...

    Stoker Log 4.2

    I will second the recommendation of Avast. I deleted Norton because it was a pain and downloaded Avast after reading a lot of positive comments on it, and haven't looked back. It will let you know if something isn't right and take care of it.

    12" or 14" FLower Pot Base

    I use the 14" or 36cm and have use both the top and bottom racks on many cooks and the bottom cooks just fine. I don't see any real difference between the 2 racks. Seem to get plenty of circulation for any of my cooks and the bottom of the meat does not burn or dry out on the bottom rack. But I...

    Stoker Log 4.2

    Amir. Thanks again for all your work on the application. I absolutely love it. Now for a possible suggestion. There are those of us that do not use and will more than likely not use all the advanced features like recieving emails or text messages or even remotely controlling or watching the cook...

    Who uses the Guru 12V adapter?

    I don't have the 12v adapter, but I would imagine that the jump starter would work fine. The Stoker controller would draw very little power by itself. the blower would be the main draw but also very small. I would think the jumpstarter would more than last for the entire cook. If I was to get...

    Ordering Stoker - What do I need?

    Yes you need to order the WSM adapter, it is a seperate item. Other than that you should be all set

    Problem with first two stoker cooks - too hot!

    Not real sure, I never had that problem. First of all are all your lower vents closed except for the one the fan is hooked to? Are you mounting the fan the right side up? It should be mounted so the wires are at the top, that way the internal damper can close off when the fan is not running. Are...

    High Temp Brisket

    I'm doing a high heat brisket cook right now, for the first time. It is about 10 degrees outside right now but I am able to hold 350 degrees at lid with a little help from my Stoker, just used foil balls and foil in the water pan. I started about 2:00 kept the temp at 325. I foiled just a few...

    I'm getting a stoker for my Christmas present

    I think the 5 cfm would still be more than enough. I know people have been using the 4 & 5 cfm on much larger smokers than the WSM with no problems. I am afraid you would blow ashes all over with a 10 cfm every time the fan kicked on without dampening it down. I can't see that the Magnum would...

    Running 2 WSM's with Stoker Log?

    I love my Stoker and the Stokerlog app. I am getting a second fan and probe so I can run both my smokers at the same time. Can I use the Stokerlog to graph and operate both fans with 2 fire probes set up on the Stoker? Has anyone tried this? Would I possibly be able to run the Stokerlog in 2...
