Well done man. Look how deep that smoke got and crazy tender. Beautiful. Jealous.

 

[Nick Clayton]

Good grief that looks amazing!

My old Big Chief finally died. Gonna be looking to buy a new smoker this year for sure.

Bought 4 of these guys last fall @ .19 per pound.

That's a great price, we do the same and having smoked turkey around is a good thing.

They’ll ship you a new heating element if you want to stick with the Chief. Mine died a few years back after years of smoking salmon with it.

So many new smokers out now with lots of bells and whistles, but those old school Little/Big Chiefs work well for the simple units they are.

Ya Im with ya. Especially for fish, I just dont think it gets any better than a Chief. Not great for a lot of other meats but for fish they are hard to beat.
Mine died in the most dramatic fashion. Not just a heating element unfortunately. It was dead in every sense of the word. Lol

I've been happy with the Master Built 4 rack smoker for salmon and is only used for salmon.

I bought a Green Moutain that I'm using for all my red meats and chicken.

I just bought a Green Mountain Daniel Boone, which seems like it’s going to be an upgrade from my Pit Boss. My favorite thing to smoke is tri-tip. When they are cooked right they are awesome, and so much cheaper than a brisket!

That’s awesome, yep was thinking of breaking it in with a tri-tip and ribs. Two things I normally don’t screw up!

Pork burnt ends, not as good as real burnt ends but...

They are more like pork candy with some kick, little Scooby snacks, so damn good!

Do you cook the hamburger and bacon separately, first?

How do you do the tri tip right?

 

[klq@stl]

Cook and drain bacon and burger before adding to the beans. My smoker is a Cookshack so you only need 1.5 ounces of wood or you will oversmoke.

Getting there. Another pan, maybe two. Mmmm tuna belly.
