Yoder YS640
Pellet Fired Smoker & Grill
There are allot of pellet grills out there on
the market but there is nothing that has the
build quality or the diversity of the Yoder
Pellet Smokers & Grills. High temp grilling,
Baking, slow cooking and low temp drying for
sausage and jerky are just some of this cookers
capabilities. Granular control to 5 degrees
adjustment up or down. Patent pending heat
baffle that allows you to control the heat and
establish heat zones within the pit. 10 Gauge
steel construction makes this pit the heavy
weight in its class. Experience the stress
free cooking experience as you operate on auto
pilot while producing food cooked to perfection
each time. Backed by a 10 year warranty on the
body, 3 year warranty on the electronics and a 1
year warranty on the igniter.

Yoder
Wichita Wood Fired Smoker
For those of you who are hard core wood burners,
this pit is a beautiful thing. Constructed of
1/4" steel this pit is built like a tank and
does a great job of holding in the heat. You
don't need a big fire to heat and operate this
pit. The heat management plate keeps the temps
across the grate from end to end fairly even and
consistent. Controlling the temperature using
this pit is no longer an issue. Once you become
familiar operating the Wichita is a breeze.

Yoder
Durango Wood Fired Smoker The
Cadillac of Yoder wood smokers is constructed of
1/4" steel. It has two smoking chambers. One
horizontal chamber and one vertical. The
horizontal is for standard meat smoking while
the vertical is great for lower temp smoking
like sausage, jerky, bacon etc. This pit is
extremely easy to control temps. It has a heat
management plate that keep the temps across the
grate from end to end fairly even and
consistent. The first time I cooked on this pit
I had no issue hitting my target temp and
keeping it there.

Arizona
BBQ Outfitters Scottsdale Santa Maria Style
Wood Fired Cooker
I looked long
and hard to find a builder of Santa Maria style
cookers that could expand on the standard cooker
and create a more versatile cooking system.
David Gonzales from Arizona BBQ Outfitters
stepped up to the plate and knocked the ball out
of the ball field with this design. I provided
input on what I was looking for and David
brought everything to reality in a new build he
calls the Scottsdale. I was very impressed to
say the least.

Amaze-N-Tube-Smoker
In my humble opinion this product provides the
best bang for the dollar in the BBQ arena. It's
fired by pellets and simple to use. Not only is
it easy to operate it's dependable. Just fill
with pellets, light and place in your gas grill
hot or cold. Enjoy cold smoked bacon. cheeses,
nuts or snack mixes. This unit can be used to
supplement your existing smoker to provide
additional smoke. This comes in handy with
pellet smokers.

Maverick
ET-73 Wireless Thermometer If
your looking for a wireless thermometer with
excellent range, durability and accuracy you
need not look further then the Maverick ET-732.
Unlike the earlier ET-73 this unit has a long
transmit and receive range. The specs say 300 ft
but I can get a signal a block away (line of
site). This is a full featured unit with Max
temp thresholds for meat and cooker. Minimum
thresholds for the cooker. It's a dual probe
device that allows you to monitor one meat and
the cooker temp or two meats. With tools
like this you will never over or under cook a
meal again!

UMAi
Dry Age Steak Bags There is
nothing like a 30 day dry aged steak. These
steaks are found in high end steak houses and
come at a price of $40 to $60 and that's
just for the steak. Thanks to UMAi you can dry
age steaks in your own fridge. Just buy a sub
primal cut and place it into the bag. Vacuum
seal it and place it into the fridge. As the
meat ages the special bag allows moisture out,
oxygen in but does not allow bacteria in. After
you trim off the outer layer you are left with
exceptional dry aged steaks that will be some of
the best steaks you have consumed.

Bear
Mountain Forest Products BBQ Pellets
I have burned all of the top brands of
BBQ pellets available out on the market and
have settled on Bear Mountain BBQ pellets.
Quality was above and beyond all the primary
factor and cost I found to be an added bonus
in making the decision to rely on this
product for all my cooking fuel needs. If
your looking for great flavor, cost
effective and clean burning with low ash
residue, look no further.

BBQr's
Delight Wood Pellets
The
pellets are a mix of Oak and flavored
hardwood. The blend will provide ample smoke flavor to your
cooks while not over powering the flavor of
the meat. My all time favorite blend is a
50/50 mix of Pecan and Cherry. These pellets
are clean burning and outside of the
Mesquite, there is no issues with ash flying
around and landing on your food. Most
Mesquite pellets are ashy in general. If you
can find these pellets locally I highly
recommend them. They can be purchased
directly from BBQr's Delight by the pallet.
You must have a business address with a doc
or a fork lift.

Mad
Hunky Rubs & Brines I have
been using Mad Hunky products for over a
year now and they are my go to rubs and
brines. They tend to run lower in sodium the
any other product yet they bring a full
flavor profile to the table. The leader of
the line up is the poultry brine. When you
open the bag it's like smelling your moms
Thanks Giving meal! The brine penetrates
deep into the meat providing a robust flavor
without over powering the flavor with salt.
The Hot Wang rub will take your next batch
of wings to the next level. The no salt rub
tastes like the original rub but salt free.
I use allot of this rub as it's the
healthier choice. Mad Hunky has a product
for every meat type or occasion.

Tatonka
Dust
I have used countless rubs let alone beef
rubs. Most are
average some above. I have found a few I
really liked. Then I ran across Tatonka Dust
produced by
Owens BBQ
I was pleasantly surprised how well
it flavored a Flat Iron steak. I began
trying it on other steaks including a 30 day
fry aged steak. My last cook with it was a
Tri Tip stuffed with Anaheim Peppers, Bell
Pepper, Sauteed Crimini mushrooms, green
onion, garlic and Provolone cheese. Got your
attention? Read more and find out why
Tatonka Dust is SmokingPit.com's #1 pick for
beef.
