    Spatchcooking a turkey

    Broiler is a good idea. I plan on cutting it as close as possible to leaving time as possible, but as everyone knows, life happens.

    Spatchcooking a turkey

    Would butcher paper work better so as to not let the skin soften up, or would I lose all that nice moisture needed to keep the turkey moist?

    Spatchcooking a turkey

    I would assume that a 12 - 15 pound bird would take about 2 - 3 hours at 325 - 350 deg F to hit that IT. Would that be correct? Also, what is the best way to keep the bird at temp for transporting to someone else's house? My fear is that I would get their and it would have either dried out...

    Landmann Great Outdoors Smoky Mountain Series 3895GWLA: Initial Impression, Thoughts, Mods, and Fi

    Thanks Lamar. I am not sure why mine were flaring up either, but having both side vents fully closed seemed to help diminish that. It's definitely something that I am going to play around with a few more times and make sure I "learn" the particulars of this smoker.

    Landmann Great Outdoors Smoky Mountain Series 3895GWLA: Initial Impression, Thoughts, Mods, and Fi

    This is my initial impression, thoughts, modifications, and results of my first smoke on my new Landmann Great Outdoors Smoky Mountain Series 3895GWLA smoker. From my research, this seemed to be a pretty well put together smoker. The main winning factor for me was the large amount of space that...

    Smoke Hollow Pro 36 Upright Gas

    Yeah, I already picked up the Ivation 738 (a rebranded Maverick 733), and I was glad that I had it.  Unfortunately, the woodchip and water pan are both just enamel coated metal. I wish they were cast iron, but no such luck. That thin metal really causes woodchips to catch fire, so I had to wrap...

    Natural Gas

    I am sure someone has. It should be no different than converting an LP grill to NG. You need a different regulator, and then you need a larger nozzle sized burner. Some people simple drill out the holes on the burner after adding the correct regulator.

    New 3895GWLA Magnetic door latch

    Awesome! I had already ordered my lavalock when I asked the question. I was more worried about having to trim, but now I know I won't have to.

    New MasterBuilt 40" Propane Single Door Smoker Temps

      Be sure that you have other thermometers that you know work well to use as a set point to test your new thermometers against. Also, be sure you know at what temperature water boils for your location and altitude:  http://www.callbpi.com/support/alt_temp.html That website should find you the...

    Flame issue with Masterbuilt Dual Fuel 2 door

    I personally went with this (Bayou Classic 0-30 PSI Adjustible Regulator/Hose Assembly) after reading several different people on here talking about the ability to make finite adjustments using the adjustable regulator, and leaving their smoker set to high. Price is still right at $30.

    Smoke Hollow Pro 36 Upright Gas

    Glad to hear you have had your Smoky Mountain for so many years, and that it is still in service. I know that Landmann USA bought out Great Outdoors, and I had read that the quality of the Smoky Mountains went up after that happened. My hopes is that my new Smoky Mountain will last as long as...

    Opinions needed Dyna-Glo 36" Wide Body LP Gas Smoker

    This is the smoker I almost went with, had I not had a windfall of Home Depot gift cards that needed to be spent, as well as a really nice 25% off coupon.  From all the research that I did on that smoker, the only Pro/Con to it was the dual burners. The Pro was that people living in colder...
