OxonSmoker Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Hello All, Stumbled across this site and it looks like there's lots of people into smoking and loads of help and tips too. Have upgraded to a Pro Q Frontier bullet smoker and starting to get to grips with it! I'm coming up with lots of questions and sure will need some tips, I will try to search and see if I can find previous answers to similar questions before I ask. Looking forward to many hours of meat smoking time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OxonSmoker Posted September 8, 2020 Author Share Posted September 8, 2020 Thank you Ice that's appreciated! Slowly getting to grips with the smoker.....Hardest thing so far is reliable fuel, trying a few brands. Think half the battle is having even sized lumps. I like lump wood and find briquettes good for quicker high heat cooking and lump for slower cooks. Practicing with the water reservoir to maintain a good temp for longer times, but struggling to get a long burn with a decent load of fuel, perhaps that's using the water, as I'm reading about. Am adding wood chunks and a good amount of water for the first couple of hours during a longer cook, then towards the end I'm emptying the water and ramping up the heat when I add a glaze or sauce mop and a last single wood chunk just to freshen up the smoky flavour .... Most of all it's great fun playing with it and eating the results !! Thanks Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
