If it's sulfur, actually sulfur which is pretty common, then shocking won't get rid of it and you will keep getting the smell. Shocking the well...
Vapor barriers are very location dependent. I know that I would always have a vapor barrier on the inside since I am in a heating climate but in...
Not at all. Equipment cost is dirt cheap, easy to install, thermostat operated, zone heating with zero maintenance. The only drawback is cost of...
I have the same one in red. The swivel head becomes a problem once you break the mounts for the jaws. I need a new one. Gotta have a swivel head...
I can't believe you used the bag that was already mixed and then left sit while you went looking for another drill. I would have pitched that bag...
You will need to remove the interior pipe. The sooteater rod can't bend the first interior 90 or the 90 from the pipe to the vertical masonry....
Just over 10. I burn 4-5 per year in both stoves. Any more and I start losing it to rot and "lightness". It sits out in the weather uncovered...
Yes, and with a nice pink on the outside brown on the inside smoke ring look too. Honestly, the wife took the ribs out of the freezer for dinner...
Okay folks, to finish up my little tangent issues, 300 degrees for 3 hours worked very well with nothing but a dry rub on st Louis style...
I suppose rather than undercoating, I do have stuff on the back of my metal. Behind the metal is a layer of 6 mil poly sheet and then 15" of...
I was worried about that in my shop. No echos at all. It works really well. Maybe the ribs matter?

I dislike rear exits instead of proper all vertical but in this case, your plan sounds far more aesthetically pleasing. Make sure you have enough...
Yes it does. I tend to bang/tap my flue every so often to listen for debris falling and usually get the rain of cement flakes from all of the...
You can even burn cottonwood once it is dry! Modern stoves with dry wood are very well behaved.
I'm a little creeped out about how your whole chimney will be supported by those nailed in 2x4s. Are you going to be putting hangers in there?
I thought about raising the temperature but didn't want to ruin it. We never raise the lid, if you're looking then you ain't cooking, is what the...
Fortunately we expected a late dinner if we were lucky enough to eat it that night. No guests to feed or party to serve. The pellet grill happily...
At 16 hours and at 191 I pulled it off. It was almost 12:30 and we were at risk of falling asleep. Silly little 8 lb shoulder took FOREVER....
I want to go to bed! Pork shoulder has been in the smoker for almost 15 hours. It takes forever to hit temp.
