    28" Master Forge at Lowe's

    I saw this at Lowe's the other day, and I was wondering if anyone on here has seen this, or better yet if anyone has tried it out? My biggest concern about it is that there isn't any insulation to speak of, just plain sheet metal sides. The lack of insulation isn't a problem on my cheap-o Master...

    Butt smoke in the "mild weather"

    I guess a forecast high of "only" 93 degrees qualifies as a break from the heat we've been experiencing here in Georgia, so I decided to fire up the smoker.  I'm doing a butt that's a little over 6lbs with a slight modification of Jeff's rub, and smoking with apple, cherry, and a little bit of...

    Boston Butt Slices?

    I was at my local supermarket today and saw Boston Butt Slices in the meat cooler right next to the country style ribs. The slices were approximately 3/4 inch thick, there were 4-6 slices per package, and each package was 3-4lbs (as far as I can tell they were boneless).  Also, they had them...

    Allergic to hickory

    So the last two times I've smoked my forearms have broken out in a rash, and had me really scratching my head (no pun intended). I've known for years that I have a really strong allergic reaction to pecan pollen and sap, but didn't know until tonight that pecan and hickory are actually very...

    Loins w/ Qview

    So after much discussion earlier today as to whether or not I could use boneless loins for pulling. After that I decided to just stick with sliced pork. So here are the before, during, and after pics. Two half loins with a rub, one wrapped in some bacon (only had enough bacon for one) These...

    Boneless Loin for pulling?

    Has anyone ever used a boneless pork loin for pulling? I've got two (really just one that's cut in half) ready to go in the smoker and I was going to slice one for sure, but was wondering about experimenting with cooking the other to pulling temps. With that particular cut of meat, would...

    First smoke including Qview

    I finally got to try the smoker yesterday. All in all it was a success. My smoked a 4.5lb butt which had the plateau from hades, since it took it about 12 hours to get to 200 deg internal temp. I'm re-posting the story below from my thread yesterday since it took so long to post the qview...

    Butt is in the Smoker!

    Well, my first attempt is under way! I've got a 4lb butt in the smoker right now, the temp is pretty well dialed in, and I have thin blue smoke flowing. I can't wait to post some Qview of the finished product later this afternoon.

    Approx Smoking Times

    Hey everybody, I'm getting ready to smoke for the first time this weekend and I have a newbie question (I did do a quick forum search and didn't see an answer straight away, so I'm sorry if this is a common question): I've read in several places that a butt should smoke for approx 1.5 hours/lb...

    Good deal on first smoker

    So I've been looking into smoking for some time now, and finally decided to pull the trigger this weekend, and here's my purchase story: I was looking at the Perfect Flame smoker at Lowe's as my first smoker and ended up getting a really good deal on it. They had two of them left, so I asked a...
