Hello from MI

[richtd00]

I've had a Bradley Smoker for ~4yrs . I'm in my early 50's. I mostly do pulled pork, chicken and ribs. I also like to do almonds and pretzels ( Family loves them). I tried my first brisket a few weeks back. It turned out petty good even though i had challenges with temp control. I'm looking at stepping up my BBQ game a bit. I know i have a bit of a handicap by using an Electric smoker. I also know I have a lot of room for improvement with the tools that i have. :) I look forward to reading the posts and learning from all the knowledge on this forum.

The Auber PID controller was specifically designed as a plug and play controller for the Bradley. You will have zero problems with temp control using one. Still gotta deal with the pucks for smoke though.

Hi Jim, i take the 'Spicy Party Pretzel' recipe, which calls for 1hr at 200F in the oven and smoke at 200F for 1:15 in the Bradley. It definitely kicks them up a notch.

Is there a thread that discuss the Auber PID controller and how to install on the old Bradley black smoker?

I was able to find the PID that you mentioned. Appears very easy to install. I just placed my order. :) thank you!!

Installed today. All seems to be working. Now I have to figure out my next cook. I feel like I got a new smoker. :)
