    Hello from Noblest England!!

    Hello from Kent, England. On my second attempt (1st time I over cooked!!) I just successfully reverse seared a few Rump Steaks. Keeping the temperature inside the hood at 225F was quite tricky on my beefeater discovery (4 burner) as you lose a lot of temp at the grill lifting the lid, but all went well this time and I think I got a thumbs up from the wife and kids for juicy consistently pink steak. I followed the pulled pork recipe a few weeks back and after 10 hours it was fantastic. Ribs I still have to master. I have a Weber & smokenator which I find quite tricky to keep at a constant temperature without constant tinkering with airflow and refuels. I'm wondering whether the slow n sear is appreciably better? Thanks for all the info it's revolutionised my approach to the bbq's...

      Welcome to fun and learning! I've never tried the smokenator, but the SnS, if you follow ABCBBQ Dave 's lighting instructions and vent plan, will maintain a very steady temperature.

      On on the other hand, temperature swings when cooking a PB are not much of a problem as long as they don't go so high as to burn the sugar in the rub!

        Welcome from Colorado! Interesting handle ... if it refers to what I think it does, I was working as a controller in Great Falls, Montana in the mid 70's when Boeing chose KGTF as one of it's favorite locations for testing the SP's crosswind landing capabilities. That was "fun" ...

            Welcome to the Pit! I too have had a hard time with keeping a Weber Kettle low on the thermometer. One good thing is that It'll get easier with every cook! Keeping a log of how much charcoal you use, vent settings, and ambient temperature can help you get there quicker!

                back in the 80's I did a business trip to New Zealand with a combination of flights through Australia. I think Qantas may have had a couple of sp's and I was lucky enough to depart in one off an incredibly short runway at Wellington to Sydney. Legendary thrust for a wide bodied plane. They don't make them like that anymore...

                    Welcome to The Pit. I have a Smokenator - somewhere. However, I have not touched it since I got the SnS. There is a world of difference in their performance. I had to tend the Smokenator constantly, but the SnS is almost set and forget for at least 6 to 8 hours. There is a learning curve, but it's not long. Once you master the SnS you will be in Heaven.

                        Masterbuilt MPS 340/G ThermoTemp XL Propane Smoker


                        This is the first propane smoker with a thermostat, making this baby foolproof. Set ThermoTemp?s dial from 175? to 350?F and the thermostat inside will adjust the burner just like an indoor kitchen oven. All you need to do is add wood to the tray above the burner to start smokin?.

                        GrillGrates Take Gas Grills To The Infrared Zone


                        GrillGrates(TM) amplify heat, prevent flareups, make flipping foods easier, kill hotspots, flip over to make a fine griddle, and can be easily rmoved from one grill to another. You can even throw wood chips, pellets, or sawdust between the rails and deliver a quick burst of smoke.

                        The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


                        The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

                        Green Mountain?s portable Davy Crockett Pellet Smoker is one mean tailgating and picnic machine. But it?s also gaining popularity with people who want to add a small, set it and forget it pellet smoker to their backyard arsenal. And with their WiFi capabilities you can control and monitor Davy Crocket from your smart phone or laptop.

                        Heat Resistant Gloves With Extra Long Sleeves Hold The Hot Stuff

                        If you?re using oven mitts at the grill, it?s time to trade up. Say hello to these suede welder?s gloves. They?re heat resistant enough to handle hot grill grates, and flexible enough to handle tongs. The extra long sleeves even let you reach deep into the firebox to move hot logs without getting burned.

                        The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


                        The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.
