    Cleaning Smoker

    Not thick but I just figured somebody nus have a good way to do it. Or I could just let it build up and throw out the smoker when it gets too small inside.

    Cleaning Smoker

    I use a vertical cabinet smoker fired with gas.  It now has a layer of crud on the inside walls. What is a good way to clean it?

    Question about the water pan for a vertical smoker...

    If you don't think water helps, try a smoke without. I would bet that if you cook for 12 hours without water, you won't be able to chew that hard little rock that is left.

    Lowes Dual-door Master Forge Smoker to natural gas

    Its actually a straightforward process. I did it on new Broil Mate a couple of years ago. The interesting part in hindsight is some of the advice that I got. From my Gas company, I was told that they did not handle any propane fittings. (I had to convert from the fittings on the smoker to the...

    Pulled Pork au Jus?

    I did a couple of 10 lb leg roasts, which I got for $1./b CDN. (10 hours in the smoker and 3 in the oven with foil). When I was ready to pull it, the foil contained some dark colored drippings, which I saved, cooled and lifted off the lard. When cold, this stuff is a gel, and when warmed...

    Awesome Beer Bread Recipe

    I tried this recipe. It turned out pretty heavy and chewy, and I thought there was way too much butter. By the time I took it out of the oven the butter was still bubbling around the edges and drained out when I turned it out onto the board. Not happy.

    Alder

    The sticky quotes alder as a useful wood. I have a bunch of small alder that grows like a weed, and I always thought of it as a garbage wood. If I cout green wood, how should I prepare it? Remove bark and dry? or use green? with or without bark? Same with birch?

    Weber Genesis conversion

    All you need is to be able to hook up the supply line to the house without the propane regulator. The house already has one, AND drill out the orifices for each burner. The store should be happy to show you how to get them out and may be prepared to drill them for you. You need a numbered set of...

    Natural Gas

    I wanted a natural gas smoker and could not find one. I was also told that (in Canada, anyway) it is illegal for the dealer to convert a new one. I bought a propane one and converted it myself. Not very hard. You need to know the heat rating of the propane burner, and drill out the orifice to...

    Charl-Broil Vertical smoker @ Walmart. $158.00

    I bought the Char-Broil Vertical at HD last summer, and promptly converted it to run on Natural gas. It is now slightly less heat than when new because I did not have the correct bit to drill out the orifice. It works well. The thermometer built into the door is not accurate but I can live...

    Newbie from Canada

    I did get an actual smoker. I wanted one that ran on natural gas. I tried several manufacturers and was told they are only propane and can't be converted. I could not see how they might have built it so it could not be converted, so in the end I bought a propane Broil-Mate from Home Depot and...
