    We went to the Augusta area Monday, made a Sam's Club run, late lunch and RecTeq has their main headquarters in Evans, a suburb of Augusta. Made it home with the boxes... 20260525_190100.jpg
    We got it put together and did the initial burn off that night. Tuesday morning warm up... 20260526_082119.jpg
    Put on 2 8# butts @9:10 AM. 20260526_091032.jpg
    Pulled them @7:30PM, 10.5 hrs to 205⁰.
    Wrapped in foil maybe last 45 minutes on smoker. Rub got a little dark 20260526_193935.jpg
    We pulled and chopped a little for supper, had 2 sammiches with a bit left over 20260526_194440.jpg
    Later that night, we finished pulling and chopping, that was some tender meat... 20260526_224212.jpg
    It's a "portable" pellet grill/smoker, legs fold down, but it's still a heavy unit.
    Will make a nice addition to go camping.

    Looks good Mike. We'll grill them every now and then. Haven't been on sale. We use a mesquite marinade that's out of this world. Good on B/S chicken too,

    Bought a nice porterhouse the other day we were gonna grill tonight but too windy to start the fire pit.

    Nope. It's home built from a 250 gallon propane tank. It's my FILs and my BIL did all the fab work on it. It's a big boy.

    Probably the smoker I would get if I had $1500 burning a hole in my pocket

    It's a solid choice for sure at a reasonable cost considering....

    2nd batch has this rub... 20260607_194821.jpg

    Smoked an assortment of lake trout, salmon, and steelhead tonight. This is what was left after dinner. I think we ate about 4 pieces. Smoked with cherry wood and occasionally brushed with maple syrup starting at the one hour mark! Pic too large to upload. Darn it! I guess it didn’t happen, right?

    I bet it was good.
    I had to resize several pics before they would load
