thanks for the great videos. I'm between the Bandera and the Highland.. Unfortunately my local stores don't carry these and I have to order it online. Is the Bandera big enough to fit a whole brisket or would I have to cut it half for it to fit? I am talking about a 15 to 17lb brisket.. Thanks for your reply.

Why are so many people using RED rtv? JB Weld makes a black hi temp RTV that matches the smoker. That's what I'm going to use.

You should be careful, putting that on the inside your cooking chamber and exposed to the firebox like that it can produce chemicals for quite a long time vapours extremely a lot of vapours

I just noticed that with the latches, you only used 2 bolts. Is that because there wasn't room to put both? I noticed that from another video, he mentions that there isn't a lot of room to put all the screws but he managed to do it. Just curious what happened with yours. You many not own the Highland anymore so disregard if you don't.

Another common complaint, with the bandera, is that the paint comes off the firebox after the first use. What would you do to remedy the problem?
@DrBrowntree
@DrBrowntree 2 жыл бұрын
Good point. There's not a lot you can do to keep this from happening other than trying not to run too hot. The Bandera can easily climb to temps around 275 or 300 degrees. That's when I've seen the most paint burn off.

I think it only looked burnt on some of the chicken because he had those ribs on top so when the pork fat was rendering it caused it to blacken a little bit but I thought the same thing. You can go back in the vid and see the only chicken that was really burnt was the left side.

I appreciate the review But, this smoker is a very poor initial value. Smokers should come from the factory already sealed. You purchase a brand new smoker and first have to modify it to stop smoke and heat from escaping through seams and doors. You can actually buy the gasket from Oklahoma Joes but why isn't this gasket part of the purchase? And in the installation instructions they recommend that you purchase, from them, Latches to hold the firebox door tightly closed! What's wrong with this picture!

True indeed that's one perspective. But we purchase products all the time and upgrade them. Do they work as is? Yes... but can they be improved? Yes. Here's the thing. If you only have $400 for a smoker, this is (IMO) the best option for the money. Can you get better? Yes. Will it cost more? Yes! To each his/her own, but it was worth my money and the mods were too.

Complete smoking newb here. Just bought one yesterday and it’s my first smoker. I grill on charcoal but never smoked. My question is, what is the purpose of that extra inner tube attached to the inside portion of the chimney? Thanks for the video definitely learning jedi smoking tricks.
@DrBrowntree
@DrBrowntree 4 жыл бұрын
Hey, welcome to the smoker club! You'll love it! That extra tubing is supposed to assist with drawing heat down to the grilling surface. When I load the smoker up, I take it off for spacing. It's not really needed in the Highlands if you have the tuning plate.

GeekMeats- OH really? I’m still waiting to put my Highland together. I bought it without much research on smokers. I was at the store it was in sale it looked pretty decent in my eyes definitely an upgrade from my Sunbeam hibachi 🤣 So I started heavily researching smoking and the Highland specifically and boom mods galore. So I have the 3” elbow because I saw people did it and I also do have the stainless steel lava lock tuning/baffle plates with the lava lock water tray. Yeah a regular metal pan would have been fine for water but the pan looked good and I felt it belonged in my life. I got the extra analog thermometer to put in the second factory hole, got the weber rubber grommet got the thermometer lead port, the gasket seal and the clams to keep everything shut and I’m just waiting on my food grade RTV to show up and it’s gonna be about that time to put it together. Now you have me second guessing if I should put the elbow in now because I have the tuning plates. Oh well, future me problem.

Is it the high heat that makes the skin dark and crispy? Or is it your seasoning?
@DrBrowntree
@DrBrowntree 4 жыл бұрын
In my opinion, it the combination of the two. If you use a rub that has a lot of salt, it will draw out some of the moisture and make the skin very crispy. I try not to use a lot of salt, but other spices add good bark and crispiness.
