It’s easier than my WSM and I think the food tastes better. Capacity is another huge plus as far as ribs go. I don’t think you’ll regret getting a PBC. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've always been enamored with hanging cookers since so many cultures around the world do it. Is there anything outside of ribs that the PBC does the absolute best job with?

I think you will be pleased. I would consider the regular PBC. It does not take up much more real estate and has a lot more room. The Junior is great for throwing in the truck for camping or tailgates. Even on small cooks I like the PBC, its easier to move stuff around and you can always throw in some sides to use the extra room.

Also, what are the absolute essential accessories from the company? Hearing mixed things on the ash pan and prefer different gloves. The hanging rack looks necessary.

I think the ash pan works fine, but I don't use it much. I dump my basked into the bottom of the barrel and then just dump the barrel into my ash can. Never used had/used the gloves before.

Anyone hear anything new about their 55 gallon drum? They announced it like 7 months ago.

Craigslist PBC for $99 if you're near the Northshore/Merrimack Valley area of Massachusetts/Southern New Hampshire. I'd jump on this but I don't think my wife would be very happy.

Ash pan makes cleanup 100% easier and should be part of the package.

As for what you can cook, the PBC half chickens are amazing. Turkeys are also great. I've been doing big 15-17lb briskets just sitting on the grate lately and they have come out magical. I stopped hanging them awhile back and used different smokers because of the proximity to the coals. Once I started doing it this way it's been my go to single brisket smoker. I smoke bacon on it too. Really anything is good on it

Idle question
i was reading a recent thread where a member used a big poppa kit to make his own UDS which turned out fantastic. it got me to wondering if drums from different manufacturers have different flavor profiles on the meat they produce? i'm kind of guessing that meat produced on different pellet grills basically taste the same if all other factors (pellet type, rub, temp, time etc) are equal. is that true with different drums?
just wondering, mark |

I just picked up some bone in short ribs cut about 4" long English style. Any round estimates how long these will take?

Just got one Wednesday, it's my first dedicated smoker. Up til now I've been using my Brinkman grill to smoke. Going to try some ribs tonight to work on getting it dialed in, then a shoulder tomorrow and some smoked queso. Loved reading through this thread, made me very comfortable about pulling the trigger.
