Great video! I was wondering, where did you acquire those types of grill grates?

I like fat up. So that fat drains into & on the meat

Who else enjoys these awesome vids the most WHILE cueing up some smokey goodness?! I got 2 rubbed butts on the kettle right now, offset charcoal in a single Weber cage topped w/ hickory and post oak perfuming the whole yard. Thin blue smoke for most of 3 hrs now, got a full cage of just Kingsford briquettes ready to swap for the next 3. Trimmed nicely, FAT SIDE UP for the whole ride, sprayed once w/ apple juice/cider vinegar mix at 2.5 hrs. I think I'll try wrapping at 165 today instead of naked, then to 205 finish w/ a 2 hr rest before pulling. Looking at midnight before I'll be licking my fingers!

Great seal, and I use RTV 600 silicone on any screws, but I feel the latches are overkill, not necessary if you don't have any smoke escaping after the lava lock

Does temperature on a smoker effect fat side up or fat side down here if you’re cooking at 2:25 or 300° or 275 doesn’t matter

Nice grates. Did you build those? Or did you get a high-dollar version of the OKJ Highland? 🤔

fantastic video thank you! Might be a stupid question but what would happen if you put a small square of that gasket down under the clamp? Meaning your screws would go through the gasket to help make it air tight? Would this work or fall apart?

I tried a 13 pounder fat side up for the first time on my Req Teq Bull last weekend. Fire pot on the bottom. I also scored the fat cap and we Picked of the fatty nuggets before we pulled it, amazing.

Thank you! Note for future videos: Place a marker on the table face to show which is which. (Fat Side UP and then Fat Side DOWN)
@sacksengthavy3113 Жыл бұрын
Gravity still applies to smoking. Obviously fat side up... there is no debate. If you put the fat side down, the fat cap drips down into the drip pan without passing through the meat.

Doesn't this mod kind of defeat the purpose of an offset, where it creates the convection going over the top of the food? This seems like it would be more useful for a reverse flow smoker.

I should of just gotten a brazos smoker! it comes ready to go. I've spent way to much on my oklahoma highland to get it to do what the brazos does straight out of the factory. Actually better buy. Mods made. extended smoke stack, tuning plates, charcoal/wood basket, two level grates, gasketing etc.

I have this upgrade but I can't get my temp hotter than 250 on the left side and 175 on the right near the fire box. I filled the basket in the fire box full of briquettes and a couple pieces of wood and I can smell the paint burning off of the firebox but couldn't get the temp above 250. Definitely didn't heat as even as I thought it would. I'll be going back to the drawing board on this.
@markennes5208 Жыл бұрын
Try using a charcoal basket in the firebox if you're not doing that already. OK Joe sells them to fit perfectly. Makes it much easier to manage the fire. Start off with the the firebox door cracked a bit and the stack damper wide open. You can adjust this later. I prefer a little bit of Kingsford briquets and mostly Jealous Devil lump. Don't fill the charcoal basket with charcoal. Instead, start off with one chimney of lit charcoal, dump it in the basket, spread it around over the bottom of the basket, then add one or two splits. Wait for the splits to ignite with yellow flames. It's the splits that will give you the heat you need. The charcoal isn't enough. Doesn't matter how much charcoal you put in there. You want a little charcoal, and then the wood. Add a little charcoal periodically. Be patient, give the cook chamber time to heat up. Good luck.
