Got home from a half day on the lake and the house didn't smell, so I would say he is doing well. :) He is big, dumb, and happy as usual. I will try to make a habbit to clean it to avoid possible issues in the future.

So funny story, I forgot to clean out the bucket and I looked and it was clean. I thanked my wife for cleaning it and she said she didn't. I then remembered I let my dog into the garage earlier that day for a few minutes, before I walked him. It was the cleanest it has been, since I bought it.

We only let him get a couple of licks in. Dogs have keen noses. He discovered it himself.

Yeah, I do have a weird taste, when it comes to beverages. I tend to like hard ciders and darker beers like porters or stouts. I saw this one on a display and thought why not LOL.

Joking aside, we only let him do it long enough to take the picture.

Let me know how it turns out. Chicken thighs have more fat and require a higher temp, so I would adjust the temp accordingly. Though the extra fat does add flavor.

This is what I used. I wanted to see how both of these would do. I think a lot of rubs would be good with this. I got the Carolina Pit Powder from a local Steve Raichlen event. The Sonny Crazy Cajun was given to me by Sonny. He makes a lot of rubs.

I made folded cutlets today. I got boneless/skinless chicken cutlets, and brined them for a couple hours. I pat them dry, then liberally seasoned one side of half with a cajun blackening seasoning and the other half with a Carolina Seasoning. I put them season side down and brushed olive oil on...

It fits my wife's Mach-E like a glove! :)

Any suggestions on a pellet tube? I have a smoking box for wood chunks. I like a lot of smoke flavor.

Just ordered my RT-700 yesterday. I have been wanting a pellet style smoker/grill for years. I told my wife I wanted to order a smoker and she said "okay". She doesn't know the price, but says she is excited. :) I retired my old Pot Smoker that I haven't used in years, due to multiple factors...

It looks like you might have a couple issues. Any metal housing on a device with electronics should be grounded. The issue might be both with the rectec and your outlet. I would contact both an electrician and rectec. A normal outlet can be GFCI protected via upstream GFCI outlet or GFCI...

Clearence problem is only at about 8" high on one side. I then thought worst case, I could also keep it in the garage. So I ordered it and the pellet combo last night.

I have a place on my deck that I am trying to figure out if it will fit the RT-700. Between my house and a single riser of a deck I have 54". I know the RT-700 is 56" wide, though I am curious how much of that is the smoke stack and handle? If the RT-700 is 54" or shorter between the side table...

How sturdy are these? I am looking at ordering a RT-700 and wonder if I should order the shelf with it or just build something.
