You hit the stall. Just need to wait it out. Foiling will shorten this stall which occurs due to natural moisture loss. That chick roast should have been pull tender nearing 195*-200*
I did beef heart awhile back. Opted for a quick sear and served with a beet salad. Still more texture than I would have liked. Braising will be my next attempt
Nice job CS. Looks great
I really like doing boneless skinless thighs on the smoker. I lay them out flat which makes them cook faster. They say pretty moist. Usually just hit them with some Dizzy Pig rub or similar just before going on the smoker
They pull nicely too
True. My post was really just poking fun at what we do to reach smoker nirvana
I am thinking about replacing my MES 30 and have been looking closely at the SI 2 or 3
This thread is making me look closer at the Cookshack. Memories of all the mods needed on the MES to correct all the issues to make it an excellent smoker. Well let's buy a smoker, take it apart and rewire it and modify it and now it's a good smoker. Are there products out there that are...
As old sarge detailed above, wouldn't that be normal? A non PID thermal control will vary ~ 20 degrees +\- the set temp. This is what happens in a home oven. The set temp is the average. You should not expect to see a constant temp. Just not how it works. Check it out in your oven

If anyone has any negative feelings after using one of these smokers I'd love to hear about it

We seem to have acquired a slew of AC adapters from old electronics Found one that was appropriate for the fan and spliced it on. Only took a couple of minutes
Yeah, that's mine. I did away with the vent stack. Too much draw with the fan at the end of the stack. By placing the fan next to the vent opening the draw is gentle and by adjusting the distance I can adjust the draw.
I have a good friend that was using a Cookshack with same vent hole in the top. He used chunks only and not much wood at that. Maybe a couple of smallish chunks. Que was excellent.
