    Little Chief Smoker & Jerky Questions

    I figure if I add a fan to circulate the air and if it doesn't get over 160 then I'm laughing. A guy I work with makes an unsmoked jerky that is awesome but he spices just right that you don't care. I just might have to pick it up. I'll let you know. DarrinG

    Who loves my wife?....I know I do!

    Oh yeah I know she loves me. She told me that I've been talking about getting a bigger better grill for quite sometime and decided that I probably wouldn't buy one so she did it for me. She's the same wonderful woman that bought me my first smoker as a wedding gift for me, my meat grinder for...

    Little Chief Smoker & Jerky Questions

    Well not like I need another one or anything but a buddy of mine has a Little Chief Smoker that he's getting rid of and has given me first dibs on it. I've done some reading and have found that if you want to do pulled pork on it you can smoke it then you have to cook it later. But I have also...

    Not that much depending on what you mean. Its not that many PSI but as for CFM I wouldn't have a clue. Its kind of like when your starting a campfire and you blow on it to start but you keep blowing for over an hour. LOL. I've got a 20 Gallon air compressor and it runs only a couple times...

    Well chunks don't work! No matter what kind of psi I ran it at. Once it burned up the chips around it, it wasn't enough to keep the chunk going. But on a good note that when I opened up the pipe there was nothing left inside. All burned up so I won't have to unhook the unit to refill it and...

    Well the first run lasted about 1.5 hours on just chips. I've started the second with some small chunks & chips. I had it running but it formed a bridge and went out. I've started again and I'm going to see how long it goes now. With just chips I used 3.5 cups. DarrinG

    Its basically an 2 inch piece of pipe with some caps on either end. You fill it with chips and cover the top. Then using a blow torch you light the bottom then screw the cap on the bottom. Then using a small air pump or in this case an aquarium pump you keep the fire going with the pump to...
