    Horizon Marshal Smoker and Temp. Management Problems

    Thanks guys, I used half a chimney and was able to keep my temps around 250.  I can see why there is an art to this as I had to fiddle with the damper and watch the temps go up and down.  I never opened the damper more than about an eighth.  I didn't quite use a whole bag of charcoal this time...

    Horizon Marshal Smoker and Temp. Management Problems

    Hey Guys, I bought a new Horizon Marshal 20'' smoker in the early spring and I've been using it all summer.  I've made some ok stuff on it, but I have not been able to perfect my temperatures in the pit.  It has a factory built sliding convection plate (it is currenlty all the way to the right...

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Hey Guys, I know it has been a while.  I think the smoker is scheduled to be built some time this week, so it won't be long now.  I have a question about the thermometers.  I am going to replace the stock thermometers with Tel-Tru thermometers, but I'm unsure on which stem size to buy.  I was...

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Hey Guys, I have a quick question for anyone that owns a Horizon Smoker.  I've seen a lot of posts stating that the stock thermometers are pretty inaccurate.  I was planning on picking up some tel-tru thermometers.  So, my question is do I also need to pick up the installation kits with the...

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Well, I pulled the trigger on the Horizon Marshal Today.  It was hard to pass up the Bell Smoker, but I've been wanting the Horizon for a while and I think I made the right decision.  The people at Horizon were very nice to talk to and I can't wait for my smoker to be built.  Once it comes, I...

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Hello Rick, That is a real good point.  It seems that the Horizon smoker is becoming the standard I compare the other smokers too.  I'm not saying the other vendors are not as good, but I guess in my mind this might be the best one for me.  I'll try and contact the factory again about a...

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Does anyone have opinions about Bell Fabrications?  http://www.bellfab.com/ I've been doing some reading in various forums and he seems to have some very reasonable prices.  What is the best way to even out the temperature in the smoker chamber?  If I decide to go with him, I will need to tell...

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Yes, the Lang smokers look real nice.  However, I'm not sure if they will ship to NJ and that would be one heck of a drive to pick up a smoker. What is the consensus on Horizon vs Lang?  I sure this is an age old debate and I apologize if this has been answered 100's of times on the board. I...

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Thanks Pineywoods. I'm trying to contact Rick at the Missouri Barbecue Company-Kansas City as he seems to have the best prices online.  I'll let you guys know.  If anyone else knows of a good on line vendor to go through, please let me know. -phil

    Looking at a Horizon Smoker

    Hey Guys, I think I may be taking the plunge soon and ordering a Horizon smoker.  Right now I think I like the Marshall with some upgrades.  Do you think I should order directly from Horizon or could I get a better price going through another vendor?  I live in NJ, so most likely I will have to...

    Reverse Flow Smoker Plans

    Hey Tom, My Dad is looking for some alternative sources for pipe.  He thought the price at the yard was high.  He is also looking for a fab shop that we can build the smoker in.  I live abut 20 minutes away from the New Jersey Battleship, but I'm guessing they won't let us build it there.  What...

    Reverse Flow Smoker Plans

    Thanks for all of the advice.  I might bite the bullet and use a grinder to remove the rust.  The last thing I need is to poison myself...again.  There was an incident with beef jerky I made with a dehydrator a few years ago.  But I digress. My next question would be about what to use for...

    Reverse Flow Smoker Plans

    I have a few more questions about rust. Do you remove the rust from the interior of the pipe as well?  Do you paint the inside as well?  The OSPHO ButchM mentions seems like an interesting product.  Is it safe to use on the inside as well?  I'm not sure if it will react to the heat and seep into...
