    Silver lake pics, and results!

    This was the first comp I ever attended. And though I did not participate (except in a timely shot), I was welcomed, fed, and given TONS of information by all. Thanks to: BBQ Bubba and the rest of the RSS team for the welcome and info. The Smokin' Scotsmen for all their tons of info (BTW, I...

    What kind of knives are in your kitchen?

    I've got a mixed set of Wustof and Chicago Cutlery and love them. Don't buy a "set". $200 should get you the 3-4 knives you'll use the most. IF you want a matched set than decide on a brand and style and piecemeal from there. This is definitely an investment. Once you get a feel for what...

    Hello from Muskegon, Michigan

    Hi Dan, Welcome to the gang. The Silver Lake Sand Dunes BBQ competition is this weekend. I've been told there's a ton of good food, people, and info to be had. I'm kinda new too, but my wife (who graduated from Muskegon High) and I are heading up there this year. See you around? -Scott

    Silver Lake BBQ Cook-off

    Thanks John. I'll be staying at the in-laws family farm in Hesperia...I guess it's about a half hour away. I'll have my wife and 7 month old boy with me so my intent is to drop them off Friday evening, head to the competition site and maybe meet some people for a couple of hours. Then...

    Silver Lake BBQ Cook-off

    Thanks to all for the invites. I'm trying to make plans now for accommodations. I've got in-laws about an hour away from the Dunes. Anyway, I was thinking about coming out Friday evening for a look behind the scenes. Will there be anything to see, or is this not recommended?

    new build of a reverse flow smoker(pics)

    I too am building a reverse flow offset. I really lucked into a lot of free steel and professional welders (built up a lot of favors, actually) AND I made AutoCAD drawings to have it all done. I don't have the ability right now to post them but I can post some pdf's later on tonight. I'd love to...

    Building A Reverse Flow Clone

    That's a great idea Smoked Caveman! I know exactly what you're talking about. Anybody know how long a 100# pig is?

    Building A Reverse Flow Clone

    Thanks for the invite Jerry. I used to get down to Mansfield quite a bit but haven't in a few years. (It looks like even that is about an hour away.) And, I don't think I will in the next 2-3weeks either, which is when this thing is scheduled to be done. I was hoping that you'd be a lot...

    Building A Reverse Flow Clone

    Ya, it'll be a monster for sure. The guy that loaded it said that that piece was at least 800 pounds alone...not to mention the fire box, grates and everything else! I'll probably cut it down to just over 6'. I'm undecided on weather to cut one large door (for the added ability do do whole...

    Building A Reverse Flow Clone

    Thanks g3 - A picture is worth a thousand answers. Nice job on the smoker! Any second thoughts? If you could modify something from start, what would you change or do different? Have you ever done a hog on a reverse flow? I had already talked myself into using at least 1/4" for the fire box...

    Building A Reverse Flow Clone

    Thank you very much Pineywoods, and that is a mighty fine wealth of information. In fact, my wife is sick of me sleeping with it underneath my pillow. What I'm also looking for is some opinions from people out there that have reverse flow smokers and what they would do to change theirs, or...
