Anyone try this? I bought a 5 pound brick at Walmart and plan to cut into several chunks. How long would you smoke with an AMZN tray? I want to use apple wood and smoke for about 2 hours. Thanks in advance.
Nice, I like that loaf! I did forget to add a couple of things. before I dump the sticky dough into my preheated dutch oven, I sprinkle a little corn meal on the bottom to assist in a non-stick operation. I also have an electric oven, and I get a tendency of a dark bottom on my loaves. To...
I have been enjoying this smoker immensely with just the water pan and wood chip pan modifications. I posted my latest efforts on my blog. I need to work on something beside pork shoulders to broaden my experience and to mix things up a little. I think I have 10+ pictures posted so it would be...
I am very busy with two young boys and the propane makes life so much easier. I first started with my UDS and I thought life was great. After a few smokes it began to be a pain to reload the charcoal basket and my temps seems to fluctuate requiring frequent monitoring. I could always dial in...

No, that is not normal. I literally can "set and forget", with a couple of exceptions. If your wood chunks catch on fire, then there will be some heat fluctuation. Are you using the stock water pan? In my honest opinion, I believe that it was way too small, especially for a pork butt. I went to...
Since I have added the frying pan for the wood chunks and a full size Stainless steel catering pan for the water pan, my BBQ is coming out awesome. I only have to turn my gas valve between medium and low to get 225 degrees and it stays there forever. I have a UDS that is collecting dust right...
