    Series 20 (Costco) temp control

    I bought my first pellet smoker (a Traeger Series 20 from Costco) and have done ribs, whole chickens, pork rib eyes, etc. on it. But every recipe seems to cook much faster than called for. So one day, I decided to use my Weber iGrill ambient sensor to measure the temperature of the cooking...

    Top Loin Roast--help

    Relative newby here, but I bought a 6-lb top loin pork roast at Costco tonight and I want to smoke it Sunday. Can/should this be smoked the same way as a picnic or shoulder? If not, what should I do different? Thanks in advance.

    Long time lurker, first time caller

    Hi, my name is Dave, and my wife bought me an electric ECB for our anniversary in August. I found this site right away and have been lurking reading about mods for my smoker. In October, I made my first attempt at smoking. Started with a brisket (brave, huh?) and it turned out okay, but it...

    Electric Smoker Modifications

    Thanks, Beer-B-Q. As I understand it, there's no actual temperature sensor on this, and it's merely a high wattage rheostat. I could be wrong, though. Can anyone tell for sure by looking at the manual?
