^ going to follow the traeger recipe. Which consists of red wine vinegar, lemon, evoo, thyme, garlic etc.

Lamb is pretty tasty. I don't eat beef or pork and recently tried lamb at Texas de Brazil. This will be my first time cooking it

Best way to get crispy skin is to remove the skin, then scrape the fat off from under the skin and rewrap. Tedious work but worth it if its that important to you. Works best when smoking but will do on the grill if you got a technique down.

Just reverse seared a couple of rib eyes - delicious. I put them in my smoker until they were 115° and then moved them to a grill on top of the fire basket for a few minutes until they were a nice golden brown - I like a medium rare but with more color on the outside so that worked really well. Really tender and just how I like it.

Looking for a hookup of any links/vids I should be following as a 'smoking for dummies'. A buddy of mine has a smoker and it's collecting dust at his parents house as he's moved out to an apt. He said if I want to leave it by my yard feel free.

Pics of the smoker? Depends what kind of smoker, what you like, and if you have TIME.

No pics at the moment, but if I actually go and pick it up I'll be sure to upload one.

And if I ever use it, I definitely would plan on being home all morning/afternoon.

Damn looks nice and juicy.

Would tear that up.

Is that trager loud? I see videos with the lid open and it sounds like a warehouse fan.

 

[kdawg]

I need to seal around the lid of my smoker better - I want some of that stick on tape to go around the door but I can't find any here. Anyone got any suggestions for online in the US? My wife is visiting her sister in a few weeks so she could bring it back then.

Amazon, search for high heat tape gaskets or something like that and you will see tons of options.

Thanks, turns out if you Google Oklahoma Joe gasket you get this kit - just ordered one with the gasket and the latches. That should make it really smoke tight - I used it over the weekend and you could really see it leaking especially around the bottom - it needs pressed down to get a good seal so that will do it.

nice! Hope it works out for you. A good seal is key to temp control.

Not obnoxiously loud but yes it has a sound when the lid is open

I have a cheap gas grill that I need to replace. Are the Webbers really worth the $? I have a Webber kettle that I love using, but also want a propane grill for when I just wanna throw on a few hot dogs etc...

weber will probably last longer. I like my weber gas grill but i sometimes wonder why i spent sk much on it. I would probably go cheaper if i had to do it again.

 

[Baby Newport]

Dont knock people that use gas grills, but me personally i just cant do it.

I DO want a griddle and would rather use that then an actual gas grill.

 

[cards93]

Blackstones are the ****.

 

[dreamer23]

i use a gas grill for weeknights...doesn't take long to heat up at all...can grill a pack of thighs in no time...i save the coals for weekend slow cooks...just my 2 pennies...

 

[macbk]

I've always been a gas grill user. As I mentioned on the last page, I may have access to a smoker all summer, but I'd only use it if I know I'm gonna be home all day.

 

[Baby Newport]

I guess im too picky. I dont like lighter fluid either. Just charcoal and wood for me.
