BBQ Smokers

[General Lee]

Picked up a new BBQ smoker. Its a 20'' diameter Horizon side firebox. Made of 1/4 inch steel all the way around. Should last a life time. BBQ and grilling is a hobby of mine and I have many smokers and grills to prove it :laughing:

Anywho, just curious who on here shares the same hobby/passion? What smokers do you have and maybe we all can share BBQ recipes and rubs.

I have a Chargriller with a side firebox and an electric (Masterbuilt) that uses pellets. I like the Chargriller, but the electric smoker is great for weekdays when I am working and don't have time to feed the firebox and tend the fire all day.

Love smoking. Looking forward to Thursday-smoking a turkey, which is one of my favorites.

i inherited a brinkmann smoker a few years ago from my sister, and we use it a couple times
a year. our best bbq is brisket, usually do a couple full cuts for a party on labor day,
everybody loves it! it just makes a long day, starting at 4 am for an afternoon party!

sweet...had one very close to this...once you get her hot, cook all weekend..freezer is good to store..reheat and ready fast...we would do 6 drunk(beer can) chickens when we did a brisket....save 5 chickens for later....too much apple wood or misqueet(sp) wood can make it bitter....and I like wet smoke...water pan at the smoke inlet...add onions and peppers to the water as is smokes....

I have a vertical LP smoker that we use occasionally. I'm hoping my Deer Hunting Buddy comes home with a Hind Quarter for me this year. I love smoked Venison. Me and a friend built a smoker from scratch years ago. It was on wheels and had a rear fire box. It was big enough to put a small hog on or a bunch of quartered chickens.
I sold it a few years ago to a guy that was going out on the street selling smoked meat. I wonder how that worked out for him?

I purchase a grill last year I think was a great deal, all hand made $1,500 but this may sound sacrilegious but nothing can beat my Tex electric smoker. It just so easy and the food tastes great.

That is one high tech looking grill.

One of my favorite subjects. I have a Big Green Egg that I use a lot; especially for Baby Back Ribs (I have a great recipe, using my own rubb), pork chops, Atomic Buffalo Turds, pork shoulder and Brisket. I also have a Weber Smoky Mountain Smoker that has more capacity, does a good job, but is more of a pain to clean up. I also have a Weber Kettle that I bought in 1968 (well, half of it any way).
