    Masterbuilt Dual Fuel: Chips vs. Chunks

    Turkey Breasts! Where's the love?

    Masterbuilt Pro Dual Fuel Smoker - First Smokes with Q-View

    Those ribs looks delicious! My first use with my Masterbuilt was ribs. I managed to cram six racks in (I wouldn't reccommend that however) and they were awesome.

    Uh ... Hi

    Hey! So I've been smoking on my grill for a quite a while now. I finally bought a smoker about a month ago, a Master Built Pro Dual Fual Smoker. I've played around ribs and chicken and am trying bacon (at last) this weekend. I'm from Hamilton, Ontario Canada and I'm surprised by how few...
