    I agree with Jason, 321 method is damn near impossible to fuck up...throw a couple of hard ciders and PBR in the 2 hour bath is what I usually do.

    What kind of smoker are you using? Go with baby backs over St Louis style if you can find them.

    Not enough to have a build thread.
    Thank you, forgot him :hattip:

    Thank you sir. Given the multiple positive reviews on this, I'll probably go this route.

    A traeger. Thanks to the pay it forward thread, I came across one at the best price.

    I have all day sunday (and Saturday night if necessary)

    Chicken thighs sound good, but idk if I've ever had smoked chicken. I need it to turn out tender. Thanks for the temps!

    :cheers:

    If you're in the area, I'll be home all sunday. Offer extends to anyone in the area (@TOP TACO, @2BeersPlease, @little squirt, @HAVING FUN, @anyoneelseiforgot). Wish I was going out camping. Probably within the next 2 weekends, but I gotta get some house stuff done. Might as well try out the new grill as well.

    I like beer on my meat. Also gives me a opportunity to grab some of those Maui lilikoi beers. Mmmmmm.
    Thank you. I am aware. Just knew we had some experts in here.

    Thank you. Noted. As stated above, a traeger. It's on the smaller side and has the 3 stage temp controller (smoke, med, high).

    Still early in the morning, can't be expected to read correctly. :cheers:

    No no no. I only said "as stated above" because in that last post I stated it twice (once for you, once for @nDub)

    Any other tips or do you not mess with traegers?

    I feel like a traeger is cheating, but since it's mostly set and forget, I can do other stuff while my meats being pampered.

    Nice I've never used a pellet pooper but I've eaten some great food my buddy has cooked on one!

    Chicken thighs are fatty enough they don't dry out.

    My only other advice is invest in a good meat temp probe!

    You can upgrade the thermostat controller.

    Funny I've had my boots on for a few yrs now no issues. I beat the piss out of my rear Billy's last weekend. Surprisingly they survied. Oh and no bumps or straps in rear.
    Bottomed out hard at least 6 times. My Shocks get so hot water has no chance. I dont see why everyone worries about the boots. Second gen you cant flip the rear.i dont think it matters much either way.
