    Hello from Northern Virginia

    Hello, my name is Bill and I am new to smoking. I love food science, cooking and "Modernist Cuisine" but have never made the plunge into smokers until now. So we will be retiring our Weber Gas grill and replacing it with the new Rec Tec Bull (RT-700). I am looking forward to being able to adding smoked meats to my repertory.

    My other hobby is researching and building historical wooden model ships. These are long term projects with a model taking a number of years start to finish - but that is another forum.

    I have many questions but will probably lurk a bit until I get my feet wet. I am looking forward to learning this exciting cooking method.

                        Boy, unless your Weber gasser is broken & in shambles, do not get rid of it. It is an invaluable tool. If it’s a wreck, it can be restored. The motto around these parts is acquiring cookers. Each cooker has its specialty. Welcome aboard, eat good and have fun!

                        Welcome and thank you for your support! That sounds like a cool hobby. My brother and I built a [laughable] small model of the Titanic when I was about 7. It was fun. That's the extent of my experience in the world of shipbuilding, it's a good thing I got better at BBQ.

                            3 burner gas grill

                            The Broil King Signet 320 is a modestly priced, 3-burner gas grill that packs a lot of value and power under the hood. Broil King’s proprietary, dual-tube burners get hot fast and are able to achieve high, searing temps that rival most comparatively priced gas grills. The quality cast aluminum housing carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

                            Comprehensive Temperature Magnet With 80+ Important Temps

                            Amazingribs.com temperature magnet
                            Winner of the National BBQ Association’s product of the year award. This 8.5″ x 11″ magnet contains more that 80 benchmark temperatures for meats (both USDA recommended temps as well as the temps chefs recommend), fats and oils, sugars, sous vide, eggs, collagens, wood combustion, breads, and more. Although it is not certified as all-weather, we have tested it outdoors in Chicago weather and it has not delaminated in three years, but there is minor fading.

                            Our Favorite Backyard Smoker

                            The amazing Karubecue is the most innovative smoker in the world. The quality of meat from this machine is astonishing. At its crux is a patented firebox that burns logs above the cooking chamber and sucks heat and extremely clean blue smoke into the thermostat controlled oven. It is our favorite smoker, period.

                            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.
