Smoked barbacoa deer shoulder. Tacos.

Harvested on Saturday. Dry rubbed with salt, pepper, smoked paprika and garlic powder. 205 on the 1250 until internal temp hit 140. Spritzed with fresh apple cider every 10 degrees or so. In a food processor I combined 8 chipotle peppers in adobo, cumin, garlic cloves, vegetable oil, salt...

Attached a cutting board. And increased the surface space of that small stainless steel top.

One of the best upgrades IMO is a couple large pans for carrying food to and from the smoker and even serving. I picked a few of these large aluminum pans up from a bakery that went out of business. When I set it on the side shelf it gives me a huge surface to work from.

It's chili season in the north east. Made my first of the fall. Smoked London broil, fresh chorizo sausage, poblano peppers and jalapeno. Finished with the pot on the Recteq at 205 for 4 hours. Stirring every 30 minutes or so. The London broil doesn't have a ton of flavor so I tried something...

Had our first frost here so I decided it was time for some chilli. Smoked a couple London broil cuts, poblano peppers, jalapenos and fresh chorizo. Chopped them up and sauteed with some diced onion. Beef broth, crushed tomatoes, seasoning, and beans (yes beans. I have four kids and three...

I've been cooking on mine for three weeks or so. Slowly increasing the difficulty of cooks. It has made some pretty simple things turn out great. I have the cover. I may have a zipper installed but honestly, just take your time putting it on and taking it off. The fit and finish is great but...

My driver called and looked at Google imagery. I talked him on to where I wanted it dropped and how he could turn around. It was the best freight delivery I have ever had and I've had more than a few.

I transfered mine to a furniture roller then pushed it to my shop for assembly. You won't move it by yourself without it on a roller of some sort. Even part by part will be tough by yourself because the bulk of the weight is the body of the grill and it's awkward to pickup. I ordered late...

Smoked sausage, leek and red potato soup..

Kept it simple. Local pork sausage smoked on 180 for 60 min with leeks and red potato. Tuned up to 225 until sausage hit 160. Chopped and dropped in a pot with carrot, celery, garlic, cabbage, bay leaves, Italian seasoning, vegetable stock, salt and pepper. Smoked sausage, leek, and potato...

My 1250 was delivered Friday afternoon. I have read about some delivery nightmares on here recently so I was concerned. I gotta give recteq and Estas shipping props. I ordered late Sunday night and it came Friday. The driver called my Friday to tell the exact time he would be at my house. He...

*edit* I just realized this went to the wrong group. Moderators please feel free to move this to the appropriate group. My 1250 was delivered Friday afternoon. I have read about some delivery nightmares on here recently so I was concerned. I gotta give recteq and Estas shipping props. I...

I picked up some 40 pound bags for just under 15.00 at Sam's club the other day. Competition blend. I'm assuming they will be fine. Rural King has all the kinds pretty cheap too.

Damn, I got my email on Tuesday that Estas had my 1250 and I'd get a call shortly. Honestly, I can't place blame on recteq. The entire shipping/freight world is a disaster right now. I'll be surprised if I see it in two weeks actually but I hope they don't damage my grill.
