Grillin' and Chillin'
« Reply #372 on: November 22, 2015, 08:18:39 PM »
I bought a new, eh hem, "smoker" today.  It isn't a BGE, so haters can start hatin'.

It's an electric smoker I got at Sam's Club.  I was looking at the same brand (Masterbuilt) at Cabela's that had a model that was really cheap; it didn't have the features I wanted, so I started looking at the much more expensive option when a lady came up and started looking at it from the side.  I told her I would move if she wanted to look at it closer and she stated she already owned one.  So, I started quizzing her about cleaning it, quality of product, etc and she praised it, but admitted the favor is not as strong as her wood smokers.  She did she paid less at Sam's Club, so I googled it and sure with it was cheaper and in stock. 

She said she judged competitions...a real smoke nut.    She started showing pictures of stuff she had smoked in it:  eggs, Mac and cheese, beef ribs, chicken, pork shoulder, pork butt, etc.  Her husband said you can use pecan shells instead of pecan wood, so I'll give that a shot once I get some shells.

I'm going to buy the attachment for cold smoking so I can do cheeses.

So, bottom line is I have a smoker that is for the lazy person.  It will be a lot easier than my offset smoker, which is just a pain in but to use.

Wish me luck!

Pictures dammit. Sounds killer.

X2 in that smoked Mac and cheese.

Btw
Haters hate. Eaters say, "hell yes"

no Wifi do you can adjust from the pub?

No hate here, I have a gas one too and it makes some great food.

Yes! Smoker will make next trip.  Will be ready when we come off the trail unless Don has food for every night. 

We will let him make the group meal plan, but I also want meals at my favorites
Pasta Jays
Moab brewery,
Maybe a breakfast at Moab Diner
And I have to try a burger at Milts.
Dang good stuff.

I really enjoyed NOT going out to dinner each night.  I haven't locked down my travel path, but I'm strongly considering going through st Louis and grabbing those pizzas.
