    Question about Chuckies

    I've got 2 Chuckies on the smoker right now with 3 racks of Baby Racks...I"m feeling more of a steak taste tonight instead of Pulled Beef.....Is it a good idea to pull the Chuckies at about 160-165 and slice them up or is that uncommon for that cut of meat? I don't want to do it if it's going to...

    All you RF guys, Can you hold temps in the 120 - 130 range?

    I really have to give props to the Bubba Grills 250R. It is a great smoker that is well built, and I think they are a little cheaper than the Langs. JT

    All you RF guys, Can you hold temps in the 120 - 130 range?

    I'm actually using my Bubba Grills 250R right now to make jerky. I open the little access panel at the end of the Reverse Flow Plate to allow some of the heat to escape. I keep about 4 medium size splits in the firebox at a time and I'm keeping about 120 degrees. I'm hoping to get a sausage...

    Had an idea...

    I was walking through Walmart yesterday on the prowl for more BBQ gear when I had a great idea pop into my head. I picked up a 1 gallon garden sprayer (that you pump up to pressurize) to fill with apple juice and rum for spraying down my BBQ in the smoker every hour. With 140lbs of meat going on...
