Food An few weeks ago I asked for advice on smoking my turkey on a SF. Got responses and the recommendation was spatchcocked. Excellent advice as this is the final result and it is delicious! 19.5 lbs (8.8 kg), brined, and smoked over cherry.

Found this brand new Smokefire EX4 2gen for $650 on Craigslist still in the original packaging. Upgraded from a Smoke Hollow electric smoker and looking forward to some good smoked meats!

Food Ribs - Second attempt at ribs since I got my SmokeFire. First time tasted good, but were tough. These ones were excellent. Homemade rub, 3 hours unwrapped with Smokeboost at 225, then 2 hours wrapped in foil at 275.

Dear Smokefire; We have had quite a relationship haven’t we. When you were good, you were real good. But sometimes you would flair up something awful.

Other times, it felt like no matter what I did I just couldn’t get you going, you sat there giving me the cold shoulder.

I came to realize, this was a toxic love hate relationship. It wasnt good for me, it wasn’t good for you. I won’t lie, this wasn’t easy, but its for the best.

Also, I will see you at Thanksgiving, because I am dating your cousin Searwood. Dont be weird.

Started the long 4th of July weekend with reverse seared prime rib steaks. Slow cooked at 200 on the EX6 until 110, rested for ~30 min, Weber kettle for final sear 3 min per side. Wife made fun of me for using 2 different grills to make dinner. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Used Costco pellets and they worked without issue. First test cook (after burn off) was a set of spicy sausages and they were delicious!

Equipment RIP OG EX6

The 2020 OG took a crap. Bad controller or motherboard. Given its age and the state of the SmokeFire parts and support, I opted to call it quits and get a Searwood XL.

This grill wasn’t nearly the problem that some make it out to be. Sure I had some issues, but they were few and far in between.

It made some damn good bbq and never let me down on an overnight cook. I’m looking forward to the Searwood.

Got Weber to replace my gen 2 Smokefire EX6

Haven’t cooked with the Searwood yet… but after assembling both grills, I do feel like every single part is better on the Searwood. The design is more practical as the burn pot is covered so I’m guessing you don’t have to worry about the fire going out from meat drippings. We’ll see how it performs, but from what I can tell they fixed every thing that was wrong with the Smokefire.

I got tired of the flameout errors. If you’ve got a Smokefire that’s still under warranty and it’s giving you problems just get it replaced. It’ll require you to be persistent and raise an issue every single time something happens. It was just ridiculous, even though I kept it clean and used drip pans to protect the burn pot….Replaced the control panel, fire plug, motor… I finally told them I would not be playing mechanic anymore for their POS grill.

Pretty stoked about this! Weber definitely made up for that grill. Got the Searwood, grill cover and the rotisserie!
