Hello everyone!!! hopefully this will get some attention. I'm doing a wedding Labor Day Weekend and am curious about how much food to cook. I want to minimize leftovers but obviously running out isn't an option. I'm very green. This will only be my second paid cook. I'm doing Pulled pork, Beans...
Hey everybody!!! I'm doing my first paid event in May and I'm trying to get all my ducks in a row. It's a small wedding and they're expecting around 100 guests. I'll bee cooking brisket, pulled pork, beans, and cheesy potato casserole. My question is with two meats and two sides how much of each...
I know this is an old thread but I'm glad i found it!! I built a 250 gallon RF last year and love it to death but i really want one like this for my backyard that I can use charcoal and chunks of wood to heat rather than just logs. I got the air compressor I'm just really busy. Hopefully I'll be...
How are you coming along on this project? I built a 250 gallon last year and now I've got a small compressor I want to use for a backyard smoker. My compressor appears to be a bit smaller than yours. I'd guess it to be around 20 gallon but this'll be a good thread for me to follow.
I'm going to make both the rub and the sauce tonight for this weekend. My question is in regards to the granulated garlic and onion. I've made several rubs and have always ust used garlic and onion salt. Can I use them in this recipe with the same quantities or will that overpower the rub?
I didn't take any pictures of our first cook with this smoker (stupid me). I fired her up this last Sunday for the second time and threw on a packer brisket (first one ever) and a 9lb pork butt. They both turned out great. I've done tons of butts on my electric and this turned out great as...
Hey everyone!! Looking at the dates on these threads I can see this isn't a real busy forum but hopefully I'll get some good feedback. I just built a 250 gallon RF smoker that we finished last month now I've been asked to cook for a very large party. I've cooked for some large parties but I...
quick question for everyone. Is there anywhere that you've all found to buy smoker covers? I realize every smoker is slightly different in size but thought maybe some of these companies that manufacture/sell big smoker may have covers as well I'm just coming up empty handed on the internet this...
Yeah most definitely not the way we wanted to have to build it but it all came together. Lot's of thanks to all the information on this forum. Also my brother busted his ass to get everything done by Thursday night. He worked on it 32 hours between Wednesday and Thursday. I covered the majority...
My brother and I just finished our 250 gallon last week and cooked a whole hog this past weekend. We have a two door setup. and it worked really well. we just put a flange on the right door that overlaps onto the left door. used 5/8"x1/8" high temp gasket around and between both doors and it...
Not too bad really it took us a couple hours to get it where it needed to be but for the most part all three air intakes ran about half open and it maintained really well. We had a few splits that must've not been completely seasoned so there were a few times we had to open it up a little to...
Yeah we cooked the whole hog. We've got a lot to learn about cooking a whole hog at one time but it was all really good still. Beer was cold, food was good, and a good time was had by all. I'm just happy to finally have a smoker I can start using in competitions. Never had anything big enough to...
We got the smoker done in time and we had a very successful party and fed roughly 25-35 people and we're still able to put a lot in the freezer!!! Smoker performed better than we had even hoped. We were very anxious getting it fired up and trying to dial it in, and it was a very rewarding...
