Default Electric smoker - Tim

I didn't realize Brinkman had gone out of business. The Brinkman I have is no longer available,
although I see someone on Amazon is trying to sell one for $550!

Here's something similar from Ebay. If my Brinkman goes tits up, this is probably what I'll get:

Man up and get a pellet smoker. Prices have come down a lot! Here's an example of an inexpensive one...

I'm doing a whole smoked chicken and some wings tomorrow. Will use the chicken for enchiladas and chicken salad. I'm going to try to reproduce the wings I had in Charleston.

No, no, no pellets. But I've changed the one I'm looking at. Now I'm finding this interesting:

Acutually, my Brinkman has started working again. Upon checking to see why the heat wasn't building
up and no smoke was coming forth, I found the chip pan was full of water. Seems my water pan has
developed a pin hole leak. Oh well. Live and learn. Seems to be doing very well now that I've
switched pans.

Apparently the water leak wasn't the only problem. The heat would get only to about 190 degrees. Now
I've got a new heating element on order. That should keep this thing going another ten years or so.

Pellet smoker. Better flavor. Better heat control. Real wood.
