1st Cook on the Assassin w/ video
Here is a video showing the features and my first cook on the Assassin Smoker that came this week. It did a great job.
I mention using a Looftlighter to start my fire in the video. It is not the best way to start a fire in this cooker. It works great on my BGE but on the Assassin, not so much. So, I will be getting a torch. I also mention finishing up the slab of St. Louis cut ribs but I don't show them in their finished state. I overcooked them and I wasn't happy about it. My mistake in learning how to use this new smoker. So, if you have six minutes to spare, check out the video. Thanks http://vimeo.com/70713142

Mep, great vid my man - good job with the new Assassin. I did three slabs of beef back ribs today (not shorts), and they came out simply delicious - really good. Sorry your ribs didn't tickle your fancy . . . .
I too bought a torch to light the Assassin. Its a simple Benzomatic propane torch for brazing that I bought at the Depot - works great. |
