New Bradley Owner

Question????What do ya'all do with the water/grease/oil/burned brisquettes? I poured 'em in a galvanized pail, and will prolly just dump it all in the field, but wanted to find out what others do with that waste.

I chuck mine over my west fence.

;D

That's not a bad idea...I don't like that guy anway. ;D ;D ;D

The spent pucks go into a stick burner just to say "I Recycle"  ;D ;D ;D  The rest I put in a bowl and let the coons and possums enjoy.  That way peta thinks I'm a good guy!  ;D ;D ;D

OK...Here we go with the first results...I am so very happy!!!
The first batch, a brisket and a butt in a brand new lightly seasoned smoker

I'm hooked...Thanks for all your help. I won't be a stranger.

Very nice...Very nice indeed navigator!  I especially like the ABT's with the stem on them....we always called those rats before I learned the ABT moniker and lost the tail!   :D  Keep us posted!

That looks great navigator!

I needed to put my sunglasses on for that first pic!

The brisket, the butt and ABT's! Oh My!  ::)

;D

Wow!!!  Great first run.

Save that 'shiny new smoker' pic, and go back to it in a few months for comparison. 

Great job!

[JoeHifi]

Good looking Rats... ABTs.

Hey Nav - Do you think you could fit a couple of the ABTs in a stamped self addressed envelope?

[classicrockgriller]

Heck of a first smoke. I think you have had a Bradley for awhile and bought a new one to show what a good smoker you are. ;D ;D

Nice job!

I noticed you used alternating pucks....what woods did you use?

[KyNola]

CRG,
Nav's another gray beard apparently, just like you and me.  I'm thinking us gray beards rock a smoker.  What 'cha say Nav?

[Caneyscud]

Man am I hungry now. 

Wish my beard was white like my hair!

[navigator]

White beard guys rock for sure!!! What does Tom Petty say? "Ya never slow down, Ya never grow old!!!"
I tried puttin an ABT in the mail, but too greasy, the stanp wouldn't stay on. Sorry AM :D
Bisquettes were alternating apple and mesquite....The pachanga tips said that too much Bradley mesquite left a bitter taste. I mostly followed his recepie. Thanks for all the awesome help.  ;)
PS CRG...nope, little chiefs, and my modified Weber grill.  ;D
