It's unfortunate then that your "jokes" do at times not come across as such. 
Remember that this is email and at least you may want to use an emoji or two to 
convey extra or hidden meaning if that is what you intend. You can make your 
voice sound teasing or sarcastic, but unless you add something like a 藍 or  
emoji to indicate you are joking that may not be obvious; or at least then add 
something like "Joking aside" to your line which is meant to be the serious 
question. Anyways, I'm sure in a country like New Zealand where outdoor 
pursuits like hiking, camping, hunting and water sports are so wide spread you 
must have stores like mine who sell the gear for it.

Hey Dude,



I'm not knocking your product promoting,



You've got the knowledge and info on these things,



It wasn't a knock as such,

Infact I highly mean it when I say do you ship to other countries as you've got 
some interesting camping related stuff



So it wasn't meant as a dig, it was meant as a joke kind of serious.

No, it is not, it was simply meant to describe products I have direct knowledge 
of. If this was mistaken for "self-promotion" then I'll be more careful next 
time and simply say that "I have a Louisiana Grill pellet barbecue" or that "I 
Know that there is a Bradley 10-rack professional smart smoker" instead of 
mentioning that I sell them at my store.

As for whether I sell to other countries the answer would be yes, but I doubt 
the shipping cost for a 300 pound pellet barbecue which comes in a box which is 
almost 6 feet (182 cm) long and 30 inches (75 cm) deep and wide would make this 
a viable option, products like this are better bought from a local dealer so I 
assume you would have to go to the appropriate brand website to find out if 
they are sold in your country.

I just started selling Louisiana Grill pellet smokers/barbecues and while I 
only just brought them in I think the app can be used. I had the sales rep at 
my store doing a demo and I had the app on my phone and I was able to adjust 
the temperature and see the target temperature as well as the current 
temperature and also the temperature of the 2 meat [probes we had connected. 
The model we used and which I will take home for myself is the Founders series 
1200 premium which is their largest size, but the app which is called SmokeIt 
works also with the Louisiana Grill Black Label series which comes in 3 sizes, 
the 800, 1000 and 1200, here in Canada they sell for $1,099, $1,199 and $1,299 
respectively.

The Founders series 1200 Premium is $1,599 Canadian and there is only one model 
above this which is the Founders series Legacy which is the same size as the 
other 1200 models, but it's all double wall stainless steel with insulation so 
it can be used even throughout the winter in colder temperatures and it also 
has a few other things included which are optional for the other grills like a 
side shelf, a griddle etc. The Black Label series grills can take up to 2 meat 
probes, the Founders series can take up to 4 and the pellet hopper on the 
Founders series is quite a bit larger than on the Black Label.

These are very good, high quality products which come with what I believe is an 
industry leading 5-year warranty and I don't think that except for the cable 
and maybe the knobs I have seen much plastic on them, it's all steel and I 
assume aluminum. Concorde Distributing which owns the Louisiana Grill brand 
also owns Pitt Boss which is their more entry level line and they also own

Re: Accessible smoker?

2021-07-06 Thread William James
Hello Mary,

I know what you mean by an accessible smoker.  Mike Calvo got a smoker made by 
Pitboss which was not accessible.  He got another one made by Traeger which was 
accessible.

I have a Weber 22 inch original premium grill which I use to smoke on.  I also 
have the Weber Connect Smart Hub.  This comes with a temperature probe you can 
connect to the grate.  It also comes with a meat probe.  You can find it at 
Amazon. 

I think you are better off with a kettle.  It costs $175.00 and the Smart 
Connect hub costs $129.00.

If you want to smoke something, use a method called the Snake Method.  I have 
done wings, ribs, and numerous other foods.

The Snake method is quite easy.   You put two rows of charcoal around the 
bottom of your grill.  Make sure they are side by side.  Next, stack two more 
rows on top of what you previously did.  After that, put a few wood smoke 
chunks toward the start of your snake.

To light your snake, start it out by separating  at least eight charcoal 
pieces.  I would recommend starter cubes.  They are more reliable than lighter 
fluid.   From those eight pieces you lit, put a small piece of smoke wood in 
between the starting eight and the actual snake.  When you smell the wood, 
you’re ready to put the grate on and monitor your temperature.

What charcoal to use?  I use Royal Oak for smoking.

This is a lot, but hopefully this will help you and others who may have 
questions.

Sorry mods for the slight off topic post.

But, Sieghard, you help all of us, so I wouldn't have cared if you had promoted 
something. I admire you for running such a business as you do.

No, it is not, it was simply meant to describe products I have direct knowledge 
of. If this was mistaken for "self-promotion" then I'll be more careful next 
time and simply say that "I have a Louisiana Grill pellet barbecue" or that "I 
Know that there is a Bradley 10-rack professional smart smoker" instead of 
mentioning that I sell them at my store.
As for whether I sell to other countries the answer would be yes, but I doubt 
the shipping cost for a 300 pound pellet barbecue which comes in a box which is 
almost 6 feet (182 cm) long and 30 inches (75 cm) deep and wide would make this 
a viable option, products like this are better bought from a local dealer so I 
assume you would have to go to the appropriate brand website to find out if 
they are sold in your country.

I just started selling Louisiana Grill pellet smokers/barbecues and while I 
only just brought them in I think the app can be used. I had the sales rep at 
my store doing a demo and I had the app on my phone and I was able to adjust 
the temperature and see the target temperature as well as the current 
temperature and also the temperature of the 2 meat [probes we had connected. 
The model we used and which I will take home for myself is the Founders series 
1200 premium which is their largest size, but the app which is called SmokeIt 
works also with the Louisiana Grill Black Label series which comes in 3 sizes, 
the 800, 1000 and 1200, here in Canada they sell for $1,099,
$1,199 and $1,299 respectively.
The Founders series 1200 Premium is $1,599 Canadian and there is only one model 
above this which is the Founders series Legacy which is the same size as the 
other 1200 models, but it's all double wall stainless steel with insulation so 
it can be used even throughout the winter in colder temperatures and it also 
has a few other things included which are optional for the other grills like a 
side shelf, a griddle etc. The Black Label series grills can take up to 2 meat 
probes, the Founders series can take up to 4 and the pellet hopper on the 
Founders series is quite a bit larger than on the Black Label.
These are very good, high quality products which come with what I believe is an 
industry leading 5-year warranty and I don't think that except for the cable 
and maybe the knobs I have seen much plastic on them, it's all steel and I 
assume aluminum. Concorde Distributing which owns the Louisiana Grill brand 
also owns Pitt Boss which is their more entry level line and they also own 
Jackson Grill which are traditional propane barbecues and they also own 
BlazeKing wood stoves and several other brands.

Is this self promotion for your business?

An easy way to get the word out but do you ship to other countries if Petrus or

Subject: RE: Accessible smoker?

I just started selling Louisiana Grill pellet smokers/barbecues and while I 
only just brought them in I think the app can be used. I had the sales rep at 
my store doing a demo and I had the app on my phone and I was able to adjust 
the temperature and see the target temperature as well as the current 
temperature and also the temperature of the 2 meat [probes we had connected. 
The model we used and which I will take home for myself is the Founders series 
1200 premium which is their largest size, but the app which is called SmokeIt 
works also with the Louisiana Grill Black Label series which comes in 3 sizes, 
the 800, 1000 and 1200, here in Canada they sell for $1,099, $1,199 and $1,299 
respectively.
The Founders series 1200 Premium is $1,599 Canadian and there is only one model 
above this which is the Founders series Legacy which is the same size as the 
other 1200 models, but it's all double wall stainless steel with insulation so 
it can be used even throughout the winter in colder temperatures and it also 
has a few other things included which are optional for the other grills like a 
side shelf, a griddle etc. The Black Label series grills can take up to 2 meat 
probes, the Founders series can take up to 4 and the pellet hopper on the 
Founders series is quite a bit larger than on the Black Label.
These are very good, high quality products which come with what I believe is an 
industry leading 5-year warranty and I don't think that except for the cable 
and maybe the knobs I have seen much plastic on them, it's all steel and I 
assume aluminum. Concorde Distributing which owns the Louisiana Grill brand 
also owns Pitt Boss which is their more entry level line and they also own 
Jackson Grill which are traditional propane barbecues and they also own 
BlazeKing wood stoves and several other brands.

Best regards,
Sieghard

I use a Pit Boss vertical pellet smoker. The knob to set the temperature is 
operated by clicks at 25 degree increments. I don't have a Wifi model, but I 
use the iGrill meat probes which work very well. I also have a small Traeger 
Ranger pellet grill, but it is more difficult to operate. I use Aira when 
getting the temp set on it, and then use the iGrill meat probes connected to my 
phone via bluetooth. I haven't tried any of the smokers that connect to my 
Wifi. Hope this helps.

2021-07-05 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Waw, big pricing for smokers,

I'm guessing though for those prices they are pretty good at what they do.

I'm sitting at a café in the courtyard and there are a couple of smokers on 
another table,

 I'm guessing they don't work as well.

Sorry, I should have mentioned as well if you are looking for a traditional 
smoker the is the Bradley 10-Rack Pro Smart Smoker which here in Canada retails 
for I think $849. I also sell Bradley Smokers at my store, but that one was the 
only one which was backordered when I got my last shipmenbt. I don't have yet 
any personal experience with it or the app, but it does have WiFi connectivity 
and of course is compatible with accessories like the Bradley Cold Smoke 
adapter etc. Whether $849 (not sure what it would cost in the US) is a "fancy" 
price tag or not I don't know, but certainly less expensive than many of the 
higher-end wood pellet smoker barbecues, but then of course it's only a smoker 
and not also a bbq..

Re: Accessible smoker?

2021-07-05 Thread CHELA Robles
My sighted father has a Gator Pit smoker but I don't use it. He's a caterer has 
a business called Chilly Willy's Smokehouse BBQ here locally in California, 
does BBQ like the Texans do but with a little California twist. Had some of his 
food yesterday at our Fourth Of July party and it was amazing!
