    GOSM Big Block Door Gasket Mod Results

    Ricky, I attached to the door only,  the self adhesive gasket fit perfectly around the Big Block door and I have not had any problems with fibers. Guess having gaskets on both surfaces will work just fine. Your latch looks fine - as the gasket compresses the adjustable helps to compensate.

    GOSM Big Block Door Gasket Mod Results

    Hi, I'm the original poster and the big block is still working perfect - the gasket is still working after almost 2 years. My Big Block had the spring handle latch that I never liked so I installed a De-Sta-Co #323   2 piece clamp ($12 at Amazon) - it's adjustable and really latches the door...

    Who's got the BEST burger recipe?

    Passed down from my Dad and the only way the family likes burgers anymore. Take two patties (or use a Stufz) and a generous slice of Bermuda onion - put the slice onion on one patty and cover with the other patty and seal the edges real good. Salt and pepper and grill. Easy but so good.  Also...

    GOSM Big Block Door Gasket Mod Results

    Not sure if the peel-and-stick gasket I used will adhere to wood - you might have to add some additional adhesive.

    Hello new with questions

    Hey Fellow Buckeye! Welcome - this is a great site with lots of info. I have a GOSM propane big block and love it for the "set it and forget it" kind of smoking and it turns out really good BBQ but nothing beat a Big Green Egg for quality of food it produces ( IMHO )  -  have a friend with a...

    Question about brining a Butterball

    I have brined a Butterball Turkey before but with only a small amount of salt of a regular brine - I use mostly applejuice, garlic, brown sugar, onion powder and cut up lemons and oranges etc. - turns out great - just cut the salt way back or completely out of your brine - Did one recently...

    suggestions on a rub to use

    McCormick's came out with "Smokehouse Maple" seasoning that is just plain fantastic! I use it straight ( it's a bit coarse so I run it through a mill ) and I use it as a base for my own recipe rub. Give it a try - it's good on most anything - pulled pork, ribs, brisket, poultry  ( have not...

    Some turkey questions

    Thawing a partially thawed bird in the brine solution is fine (just keep it cold!) - don't stuff the bird just put a cut up onion, some celery, etc in the cavity to help flavor - and HAVE FUN!!

    is it wrong to start drinking at 7:30?

    Never too early!!  I'm putting a couple Turks in the smoker for Thanksgiving at 5am ( and a 25 lber in the oven ) and plan to start the day accordingly!  Just have to pace myself as it's going to be a long day! Happy Thanksgiving!

    Anyone mod the handle of the Big Block GOSM

    Thanks for the reply,  with the new door gasket on I am not getting any heat or smoke leakage at all and I can live with the rigged up handle as it is but just looking for a more permanet solution. I will probably take the original handle completely off and buy a new handle and latch.
