So I smoked two boston butts on the 18th of June and went ahead and pulled the meat and took out all the connective tissue that was left in the meat. I put the two butts in gallon bags flattend the bags out and froze them so we can reheat and eat them for the fourth. My questions is can I put...
What are the modifications I can make to the brinkman other than drilling the holes or is there any other mods I can make. I think I am going to try and make the drum when I get home. Where can I buy the racks that go in the drums from. Also what type of hardware should I use. I guess stainless...
Thanks for the input. I kinda got a little better understanding with what I want from looking at another post about this. I will prolly not go with the hot plate idea and stick with charcoal. Its just frustrating cause I can never ever keep my cheap brinkman hot. Its hot at first and then the...
I know I seen it on here somewhere and I cant find it. I am looking for some plans to build a homemade smoker out of a food drum. The kind with a hot plate. If anyone has some or can guide me to where some plans are I would appreciate it. I am a visual person so pictures would be great but if...

Thanks for the replys. I think I will cut back on the chips a little. I usually have alot of smoke and the food turns out good but I want it to be better. Thanks for the tips on the meat not taking much smoke after 140. That will help to cause I put wood chips on till the end and I am prolly...
I was reading a post on here somwhere and it got me to thinking that I might be trying to get to much smoke.Is it necessary that the smoker smokes the whole time you are cooking. I usually use ALOT of chips while I am smoking. If I see it not smoking then I add some more chips. I prolly use a...
I have a cheap brinkman smoker from Academy. I usually put the chips in some water and let them soke for a while before I put them on the fire. I was just wondering if putting the chips in foil will make them last longer than the wet chips or should they last about as long. I usually use a whole...
I see where some people put there wood chips in a tin foil cacoon and put the tin foil on the fire. I like to wet the chips and then throw them on the fire but you burn up alot of chips this way. Whats the most economical way and which creates more smoke.
My smoker is the round one with the one door at the bottom but the problem does seem to be with the bowl you put the charcoal in. It has no holes in it so the coals want to go out fairly easy. I even put a peice of grate in the bottom but it didnt help. I think I am going to buy one of them...
So where you get this Tulsa Jeff's. I am planning on doing the butt on Sat or Sun so I will need something from the local stores. Anybody got a tip on something from the stores that is good. I have one of those cheap brinkman smokers and I dont think I have ever got it up but to 170 or so. Just...
I was just wondering what that 3-2-1 was. So I smoke my ribs for three hours with no foil. Smoke 2 hours with foil and then another 1 for the Sauce or whatever at the end. And on butts I get them to a internal temp of 200 if I want to pull which is how I'm gonna do it. I had just seen the 3-2-1...
