    Adding an offset fire box to a vertical smoker.

    Converting a Stainless Steel Blanket Warmer into Smoker

    How goes your project Ted? I have access to that exact blanket warmer for $100. I have had little luck locating anyone who has done a complete pellet conversion. I'd like to know feasibility and total cost to get it done.

    Yoder YS640 vs RecTec RT-680

    I've been comparing the same grills as well as trying to understand which ones do the best job with sticks and summer sausage. We do lots of cured meats in my vertical but I want American made and I want a good reliable pellet grill. Do you do summer sausage? If so, how do you place them. Same...

    Pit Boss Vertical smoker 700 Series

    How do you like the temp controller? In my current gas vertical smoker, I have added a fine tuned regulator and I feel I have more control than the 25-degree increments available in the Copperhead series. Has it been an issue for you so far?

    Snack Sticks - AC LEGG #116 with some additions to crank it up a notch...

    Great looking sticks!  Can you explain the "extra ingredients" like the "special binder" and the ECA?  We're prepping to do about 30 lbs of sticks next weekend and I was wondering what these add?  Do they impact curing? texture? taste?  I see you added cure as well. Doesn't AC come with cure...

    got a deal on pork butt. Now what?

    I got a bunch this weekend as well.  Hy-Vee had them for $.98/lb over the weekend. I bought about 30 lbs worth and froze each of them whole.  They'll be smoked and or used for mix with venison when we start making summer sausage, brats and sticks. Now to find and kill some venison!.
