Last post by mustangmoe - September 15, 2025, 01:13:32 PMIf your looking for a new home I suggest this one. No BS or little klicks just good people.
NePaSmoKer is over there and I would venture a guess a few others.

Last post by mybad - September 10, 2025, 11:10:00 AMI got my smoker in 2007, this is when I joined the forum. So much was going on in this forum, it was exploding in so many different ways. Recipe's, smoke-out's, mods, and on and on.
My smoker is still in use, only mod I did was a Auber PID, that made it work so much better.
I wish there was a list, of those who have passed, so they could be remembered.
Anyway this is one of the last "old" forums I have been visiting over the years.
Thank you very much!

Accessories / Re: Do you use any third-party...
Last post by manxman - September 09, 2025, 02:06:57 AMI use an Auber Instruments PID ambient temperature controller for my original BS when hot smoking, this brings much improved temp control and stability notwithstanding I don't hot smoke that much.
Also use third party meat probes, currently the wireless Thermapen (Thermoworks in US) RFX but have also used wired Inkbird and wireless Meater on occasions.
I have Frogmat mats to line the trays and third party metal puck savers. I also have a 4 rack rack holder that someone here on the forum fabricated a good while back, very useful for loading and unloading but unfortunately they have not been available for a long while.

Accessories / Do you use any third-party acc...
Last post by laurawoods - September 09, 2025, 12:18:08 AMHi everyone, I've been using my Bradley Smoker for a while and really enjoy it. Still, I'm curious if anyone here has tried using third-party accessories (like racks, mats, thermometers, or other add-ons) that aren't officially from Bradley. Do they work well, or do you find they affect the performance of the smoker in any way?

Last post by manxman - September 04, 2025, 10:50:57 AMYou got me there TedEbear, my stats show I am a lightweight at just over 28 days since 2005. :-)
I suspect no one can compete with perhaps the most iconic figure to frequent this forum, the sadly no longer with us Habanero Smoker at over 188 days! Having said that KyNola comes in at a none too shabby 134 days (!), another legend who contributed so much! :-)
Think the important thing now is that the legacy of members such as HS and KN who contributed so much will live on in the form of the archive.

Last post by TedEbear - September 04, 2025, 08:07:34 AMAlthough the forum activity is just a fraction of what it used to be I'm sad to see this place go. I became interested in smoking from a former coworker, purchased a Bradley and joined the forum back in 2010. My stats say that I have spent over 32 days of my life on here - wow.
I learned a lot over those years, although I will never be as good as some of you smoking gurus. However, it was fun trying out some new things that I read now and then.
Thanks for all the memories everyone.

Last post by manxman - September 04, 2025, 03:48:10 AMQuoteHey Manx, nicely worded. It's been quite the ride. Pretty sure I joined in 2007. Made lots of friends during that time. I join you in raising the glass.
Cheers, my friend.
Yep definitely have you in the "old hands" category!
Cheers, my friend... take care.
