Hi all (and Todd)-
I am having issues keeping my AMNPS lit in my Masterbuilt XL. I started by drilling a series of holes in the base of the smoker and set my AMNPS over these holes (12 in all). No luck. Yesterday I modified an air intake on the side, at the bottom right next to where the...
Was just wondering if we could get an update on your experience with the AMNS in the XL? I have the XL and am looking into buying the AMNS. Did you go with the beside the burner scenario?
Once again, this build looks great! In my last reply I meant to ask why the smoke stacks are so close to the fire box instead of higher up on the tank?
That is one fine looking rig. Been following this thread for a while and can't wait to see some Qveiw.
Why did you build the stacks above the firebox? I'm about to start a very similar build, and am gathering as many notes as possible.
Congrats on the build. She's a beauty.
Hello. I've been reading all of these threads for a while now trying to figure out what I want to build. There are so many great pieces of info. throughout this site. I finally found a 275 gal fuel oil tank that my buddy has laying behind his workshop. The best part about this tank is its free...
I've been checking this thread for a while as I am hoping to start my first build with the same exact tank. I'm just wondering if we can get an update? I know the holidays are just ending, and you may not have had anytime to continue, but I am definitely looking forward to more pics and info...
I am fairly new to the website and to smoking meat in general. I was going to go to culinary school until I started BBQing. Now I am thinking about honing my skills and opening a small BBQ take out joint. My question is about the reheat method for the meats. Do I cook the meats fully then throw...
I really appreciate all of the advice. I probably will build a UDS out of the drums. My friend is slightly OCD mixed with some ADD, so trying to keep him patient is sometimes tough, but next week I am going to scour the junk yards a LP tank. We do plan on smoking large quantities of meat so that...
I just signed up for the Ecourse. Thanks for the suggestion. I can already tell it is going to be a huge help. I really appreciate the warm welcome. I am happy to have found a place with such good people that are willing to lend a helping hand. I know I am going to enjoy being a part of the BBQ...
I don't know how thick the drums are, but I know they are not that thick. Is there anyway to line the steel drums to maintain heat? Should I continue this line of questioning in the build forum?
What are the pros and cons of using (2) 50 gal. steel drums (restaurant grade) vs. a 250 gal. propane tank. Obviously the cooking surface will be smaller with the drums, but is there a huge difference in heat retention? I have a million other questions, but this is a good place to start. Oh...
Hello All. I am a rookie smoker just trying to get my feet wet. I started on a weber charcoal grill and have recently acquired a brinkman vertical water smoker. Over the Labor Day weekend I did some ribs and a boston butt on the water smoker. The meat turned out so good that my friend, who is a...
