Hello all,
Ok, first...I'm pretty much convinced to order the Blue Smoke Smoker.
I'm just trying to manage money, and figure out options....
But it made me think, with this "new" to me method of allowing free flow of O2, from the fire box through a full opened stack....how much wood will this...
Hey all,
I've been smoking on a weber kettle for the last couple years and finally made the plunge and got an offset. Just an OK Joe for now, but it should be good to cut my teeth on.
I'm from new england, maybe i'm not looking in the right places but it seems to me that the typical smoking...
For those who use a pellet smoker as I do, do you use a specific brand based upon the type of meat you are smoking?
Are Lumberjack pellets and Bear Mountain pellets made by the same company?
Which is your go-to pellet brand?
Anyone ever smoke with peach wood before? Have a source that will sell me a half cord for about 220 thats not bad for southern NJ wondering if it's decent for all around smoking or not.
I live in NJ. Looking to get some wood to store while my cooker is being built. I had a resource quoting me for a half cord of about 75 splits of oak and 75 splits of cherry for 250. Should I try to look else where or do you think this would be a fair price?
Getting an offset pit built and will probably be done by end of spring early summer...fingers crossed. Thinking about getting some would to stock on a firewood rack to cut down and get ready. How much wood do yall think is a good amount to keep on hand?
Howdy Y'all,
I'm an amateur pitmaster still learning the ropes and in the process of opening a new BBQ restaurant in a few weeks. I got my start smoking on a reverse flow offset stick burner and had success with my product, but my new smoker is this Southern Pride cabinet smoker and its giving...
I am running 6 to 8mo old hickory splits in a 2018 CTO. I get excessive amounts of a liquid tar like substance that cools and coats everything, even locking down the fire box door. It has to be the wood and I am going to change to oak. Any suggestions? Anyone deal with this much from a species?
I picked up a Bandera on Craigslist a couple days ago and am planning on running some of the mods listed here to help with bringing it up to heat and maintaining temps (fire bricks, high temp tape for the door, raised firegrate, charcoal basket).
I wanted to ask what your strategy for fuel is...
And not in the high school sense. ;)
This weekend I became the proud owner of a Lang 60D, upgrading over my WSM. I'm psyched.
I was wondering about everyone's thought's about graduating from charcoal and chunks to wood:
1. This is the newbie in me asking - how is it that I could use "too...

I like oak. I have lots of oak laying around. I burn it in the winter in my wood stove to heat my house. Sometimes I’ll add apple or pecan or peach to the mix but that’s usually just chunks that come from Walmart or the hardware store. Oak that has been cured...
I have what may be a dumb question, but I'd like to know what others have experienced - I am cooking on an assassin, but I only use Hickory chunks for flavor - I seasoned the smoker with Hickory, and have cooked only with Hickory since I got the smoker about a year ago - When I get done with the...
We fired up our refurbished Backwoods Competitor for the first time! We used a ThermoWorks BlueTherm Duo to record two data points on the inside (higher rack at 229°F and lower rack at 219°F) with the side vents cracked open a little under an inch, along with the top vent opened about 1/2 and it...
My buddy and I are fixing up a used Backwoods Competitor we picked up. It has an auto water system, convection fan, and a 'hide setter' (which I am not familiar with)...
Any tips or recommendations on how I should adjust my cookers going from a Rec Tec pellet smoker to this Backwoods? Also...
Hello all,
My name is Tony and I'm new on these boards. I have a question regarding oak vs longan/lychee wood for smoking, if anyone out there has had any experience with these types of wood it would be tremendous.
I am a small-time pit master from rural Austin and have been tasked with...
After several summers of 'meh' outdoor cooking and after seeing the sad imitation models of real offsets at Home Depot I'm stoked to say my Yoder Cheyenne will arrive next Tuesday. I'm planning on starting off with a 4 hour seasoning with peanut oil, and then trying out some Memphis style spare...
