I just listed an even dozen of Round Tuits on EBAY - factory fresh in
original packaging, free shipping. Value? Priceless.

I have a case of them here somewhere, probably out in the garage next
to the burner controllers

If the burner controllers are taking up too much space, you can send one this way when you get round
tuit. (Oooops...spell checker wants to changer 'tuit' to 'tit'.)

Email me your address


Hey, got another one of those??

I am going to check out the idea to be sure a 240v controller works OK
on 120v. I will put you in the queue if it does. I have 4


Thanks, and either way, I would still like to see a sketch if you get
time someday.

That is how my Brinkman works. I really need to put a controller on
the element tho. It runs a bit hot for a smoker.
If you really have it packed, like 3 racks of ribs and a butt or two
it is better than just a rack.

I do have a controller I salvaged out of an old cook top but I never
got around to hooking it up.

I've thought about just replacing the element with a single burner electric stove to better control
the heat. I'm with you in thinking the Brinkman gets too hot. Thought of drilling some holes in the
top and putting some bolts therein, then taking out a bolt or two to release some heat. Problem
is...the smoke would go too.

Any other ideas?

My thinking is If I put this control in a handy box with a cord and
receptacle, I don't need to modify the smoker at all.


When you get it figured out, mind sending me a quick drawing. I would
like to try this too...

It is pretty simple. The controller has L1&L2 "in" terminals and
H1&H2 "out" terminals. (plus one for the indicator light)
There may be 2 problems.
1. will it cycle right on 120v
2., will it handle the 1600W element in a Brinkman

I still have my boat on the trailer doing my 500-600 hour service and
that is more important to me. ;-)


No hurry, whenever you get it sorted out let us know. Me too, getting
ready for a huge event this weekend...

No need for them to be wet.
Hummm, not sure why I soak them, prolly cause grandpa' did.

You want to get as much smoke into the meat as early as possible. Once

it's "sealed" the benefit is diminished. There are also discussions

that wet smoking woods add a bitter taste. I smoke the hell out of

brisket and pork shoulders immediately and never add any more for the

12-16 hour process.
Please expand on that brisket smoking technique. I've not tried one yet, but keep thinking about it when I see those beautiful briskets at Costco.
There's very good info he

Thanks, Earl...one of the links found there also had some good info.

Going to Costco today to get a brisket. Now I have to decide between oak or cherry for smoking.

Here's my late response...

2/3 Hickory and 1/3 Cherry (or similar) for brisket. Works great for me.
