    Brinkman Smoker cant get the temp up

    The charcoal pan could use more ventilation.   Other factors:  What about outdoor temp and wind?

    First Sauerkraut

    My Grandmother on my dads side used the crock to make and store hers.  She had long quit making when I came along.  My Grandfather on my mothers side put in a large crop of cabbage every year.  His method used quart jars and kosher salt.  I thought he used a liquid mixture that included vinegar...

    Gym locker smoker

    Yeap.  Smelly socks and jocks wouldn't be a desirable flavor to add to meat.

    Smoke chamber temp thermometers

    I checked mine with boiling water and compared to a digital.  I believe it was within 1 1/2 degrees from digital.  I used their long stemmed version for years in photo dark room.  Were always accurate and were adjustable to calibrate.  The model I got for the smoker isn't adjustable.  Have been...

    I use a Tel-Tru  [    http://www.teltru.com/s-43-barbecue.aspx  ] with a 4 inch stem mounted in the door where original was.  The range stops at 50 so I remove for the winter.  Its back in place now.

    Question about my Maverick

    May not be probe.   Could be the first digit (1) is stuck on the display.  If the one digit were off wouldn't the readings make sense?

    Huddler is a virus?

    Runs fine on Safari 5.0.4.   I have noticed a feature I would change if it was up to me.  From the home page, when I get to the bottom of recent post list and click more.  I go to the next older on the list.  When I navigate back from second and beyond pages I come back to the home page with the...

    The Tile over the chip Box in the MES (HELP)

    Ceramic tiles are cooked at very high temps (1400-2000+ degrees) to the point that turn the glaze to glass.  On odors that are in the carrier for the glaze burn off long before they reach the maximum firing temp.  The kilns have a pleasant smell almost like biscuits baking before they are done...

    The Tile over the chip Box in the MES (HELP)

    Should help.  I use tile in my propane smoker for ballast and heat direction.  Just be careful about adding water.  If the water is to cool and strikes the tile the thermal shock will shatter it.  The ones I use are in with the meat racks. You do have a space for smoke to come out the chip box...

    Slice across the grain.  That is up to down as pictured. Always across the grain unless you are slicing jerky.

    Question about smoking on a Char-Broil

    I have that model.  It works very well after a few mods.  The chip/water pan you mentioned (in my opinion) was a poor design.  I took a jig saw to it and cut the center (chip portion) out.  Put a pan above the burner to hold chips and catch drippings from racks.  I threw away the thermometer and...
