Dave Macarty commented on Joe Walton's group Oklahoma Joe's"Mine is one like is sold at Academy for around $450. It was a gift from my aunt. It leaks like a sieve around the door junctions. It is a hot, difficult job to be fiddling with the dampers and fire all day long mid…"
Dave Macarty commented on Joe Walton's group Oklahoma Joe's"Guemes Bill,
To be honest, I'm a little disappointed in my Ok Joes Grill. I've commented about this below. It is not very efficient even though it seems pretty heavy duty. It requires a lot of attention if you are planning to…"

I think I could probably get by with the 18" Bullet. I think they are quite a bit cheaper than the 22" model. Right now, there are only 3 of us at home and my oldest daughter is away at college. So, if I were to cook for an extended…"

"Greg, could you please send a link for me? You search "smokers" on Google or Youtube and get 5 million hits. Please copy and paste what you're talking about because I'd like to see it.
Thanks,
Dave"

"Lon & Dave, do a search on youtube for smokers and check out how this one guy fixed his grill so that it would not leak so much around the lid, you might want to follow his ideas, cheap fix! His was having the same problems!
Dave, I don't…"

"Greg, it was ok. I was really disappointed in the spare ribs. Also, was too smokey because I didn't wrap the stuff and used wood as fuel the whole time. A week later I did 3 racks of baby backs that I got from Sam's plus a pork tenderloin.…"
Dave Macarty commented on Z Z's blog post TRAEGERS VS THE BIG GREEN EGG"Cyndi,
I think I've found the perfect smoker in the Weber Smokey Mountain Bullet. I've been looking at the Virtual Bullet website and it's got ton's of great information on there and they cover the Minion technique which I'd…"
Dave Macarty commented on Z Z's blog post TRAEGERS VS THE BIG GREEN EGG"Cindy,
I think the Smokey Mountain Bullet is exactly what I'm wanting. I want no fuss, great smoked ribs, brisket, etc and I think this will be the best option for my needs. It is officially on my toy list!
The smoker that I have is just too…"
Dave Macarty commented on Z Z's blog post TRAEGERS VS THE BIG GREEN EGG"Cyndi,
Great stuff! Thanks for all the comparisons! I'm really impressed with the BGE and have read about the Weber Smokey Mountain Bullet. Right now, I'm pretty much a rookie when it comes to smoking but am learning fast and enjoying the…"
Dave Macarty commented on Joe Walton's group Oklahoma Joe's"Joe,
What I'm trying to say is my experience with my OK Joe's smoker is not fun!
I would like a smoker that could produce a great final product that didn't require me checking on it every 15-20 minutes for 9 hours. That is what I now…"

- Dave, its a fact that wood burns hotter than coal and coal burn longer than wood. With that said start off with 25% to & 75% coal to wood. This will get your grill nice and about 225 degree in a shorter time. then add lump coal 40% to 60 wood. try to keep that fire as close to 225-250 as you can, dont open unless your turning. Now this is the trick used your fruit wood first Pecan, peach, apple or cherry this is your flavor. Wrap your Brisket and use 40% or less coal and the rest oak or what ever hard wood in your area for heat. Wood burns hot and it wont take a lot, in Texas some wood is cheaper than coal ! So for the 1st 4 hour nice wood, then wrap Brisket . and just keep it at 259
