And that’s what you’ll get for using a pellet smoker like a baby. Tend your fire like a man! 🪵

Never will happen if you use a Thermo Pro that alerts you when temps drop 👍🏽

* Pellet smoker blew the breaker * Auger Issue * Ran out of pellets * Software glitch
Just use a charcoal smoker and you won’t have this issue.

Gaslight yourself into thinking it was cold enough overnight to save

I would argue that waking up to your entire smoker on fire is worse. But this was pretty funny 🙂

What? That’s why you set you’re alarm for 2:30 AM and smash a few beers while tending to the fire, then go back to bed until 5:30 when you’ll need another beer to tend to the fire and not feel like ass…

I’ll sleep when I’m dead. And lots of bbq will help me get to sleep sooner.

I smoked a brisket the other day on my WSM 18 and got 14 hours from not even a full bag of B&B briquettes. The WSM is stock except I put an extra charcoal grate at the bottom rotated 90 degrees so the coals stay on the grate longer. It varied a little but ran about 225-250 F for most of the cook. Get a propane burner and charcoal chimney to light the briquettes. It’s nearly as easy as a pellet grill but you get actual BBQ flavor

This has happened to me exactly one time. From there, I always know my smoker well before trying it, use a programmable thermometer for interior and exterior temp with alarms and I always schedule one wake up check about 1/3rd of the way through the sleeping interval.
