    Happy Thanksgiving

    I hear ya about the practice - I need lots more. I smoked my first turkey yesterday and while it was edible, it was a bit to dry and smokey for mine and the wife's taste. Can you give a newbie a few tips? What temp did you use and for how long? Your bird looks great!

    Now the ECB has to do Chili

    Awesome thread, Rings! Made me hungry too, and it's only 9am. Hope a few of those jalapeno seeds fell into the chili for ya.

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    I want to thank everyone for your shared opinions and insight. I can honestly say I started this discussion in the hope I would get more support about an offset stick burner over the pellet smoker (which did happen) because I really wanted one. In fact I was favoring the Old Country ¼” style...

    Latest brisket

    I can see the moistness and tenderness of the meat in those south Florida pictures. Congrats! Can't hardly wait to do one for myself.

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    Concerning my dilemma over which smoker to chose and living in a cold weather climate in the winter, would you smoke during the winter months if you had an insulated smoker to use?

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    Do you think there is a real need for an insulated smoker. Looking at a backwoods chubby & a Humphrey's now.

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    Al, do you believe the position of the smoke stack matters in the off set smokers? Which position is best for those that aren't reverse flow?

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    My research tells me that the steel is too thin to consistently hold temp here in Michigan's winter months.

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    I'm in Brighton, Michigan, near Detroit/Ann Arbor. Yeah, not too sure why it seems so difficult to find a pit maker here because we Michiganders like BBQ too.

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    I’m not really into the “pride” factor, looking more for a quality cook. I believe I will be going with the offset, but since it would cost me an extra $500 to ship the Lang to my house, I’m still looking for options for a quality offset. If you can direct me towards something built in the...

    Isn’t it possible to use a pellet grill at low temps for long periods of time?

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    No such luck, Rings Я Us, purely blue collar here. While the auto feed feature would be cool, I don’t suspect something looking that pristine would ever smoke up something worthy, but as always, there are exceptions to every rule.

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    Thanks for the input, sonofasmoker. If I understand you correctly, you aren’t helping in regards to my wallet/bank account, because it sounds as if you are advocating both types. Does it make me a little weird if I get and understand what you are saying about the “Bark and Pride?” There’s...

    Stick Burner Or Pellet Grill

    I love a good smoked brisket. I’m hoping to learn from the participants here in how to achieve the skills needed so I may enjoy a brisket I smoke myself. In briefly searching this Forum, I found out exactly how ignorant I am on the subject of smoking anything but cigarettes (which I haven’t...
