Mind if I smoke? 🥩🍖

So on a pellet smoker you can set the temp and it will feed itself and keep the correct temp? Correct?

Yes. They stey within 10-15 degrees.
I prefer the wood burners, but firing it up daily is a pain in the butt. I save that guy for the big cooks with lots of people. Its a reverse flow, and I can cook about 30 racks of pork ribs at a time.

Yep agree... wood fired takes time, I can see the advantage of a pellet smoker being its quick to get going and far easier for daily use

I did consider getting a reverse flow smoker but I decided I could get more flexibility out of a std flow one. I have made a baffle plate to fit into mine. 6mm steel tread plate. I just need someone to weld up some angle plates for me and it's good to go. Will get pics this weekend

Cinder blocks still are plentiful around here but fire bricks are on back order at both places have tried. I'll have to check Craigslist and local networks but I probably won't have this done till the end of the year. I just got too much stuff going on. The plan was to roast a pig in there for this coming Christmas but I don't know if it's going to happen.

This is a picanha /View attachment 3034482 rump cap that I slow cooked/ smoked on my kettle bbq

It was about 3 degrees underdone but so soft and juicy! So good

As we say in GB… F*ck me!

Chookster.

Here's a video about picanha.. the host talks about some things that I didn't know about until recently;but you probably already do. Particularly about the location of the veins and what that means.
Good stuff.
