With all of that meat in the smoker, it had a hard time getting up to temp so I ran it at 225 for two hours and then backed it down to 200 for the remaining two hours. So, it took a total of seven hours.

he batch in my Dad's smoker was done in about half of the time and ran at a straight 200 for the whole time

I think the propane pumping steady continuous heat much like an oven is more stable than the up and down of the analog thermostat. If the smoker was HOT, quickly load the racks and seal it up It would likely drop from 250 to 200'ish. The sticks would be in the heat and smoke immediately not creeping up in temp.

Did you run the dryer the entire smoke?

I see what you mean now.

No, I started the dryer about 2 hours in after the smoke had pretty much stopped.

Gregg:

I know I am late on this post, but all I can say is Wow!!  Nicely done, my friend.  Hey I am only three hours southeast of you, so if you need another taste tester, just give me a call :).  Or if you want an adopted brother LOL. 

Man those sticks are making me hungry!!

Hey Gene, if you ever get up to the Fargo area, I would buy you a beer or two and give you some samples. :)

Wow....that looks very good and wishing we were neighbors.    You all have perfected that and I'm taking your advice and will give a try.   Many thanks.

I wish I was a neighbor to a lot of guys/gals on this forum.

This is a great place to get inspired to try some new ideas.
