  • @LCretiree
    @LCretiree หลายเดือนก่อน

    Setting the temp lower than recipe calls for seems counter-intuitive BUT you're absolutely correct. My CampChef's T sensor is close to the side wall and I think the grill will overcompensate to keep it "happy"!. I put a meat sensor in the middle of the grill and set the temp to satisfy that one instead. For example, if the recipe calls for 225, I need to set the grill to 205-210 so the center of the rack stays at 225. I did this for a 10# brisket and an overnight cook with perfect results. The problem is that you have to monitor the temp of the meat probe and compensate for temperature and wind.

    Thanks for showing us a recipe for "Jalapeno and Bacon Poppers". I'd like to learn this recipe. It is TOO EXPENSIVE to eat BBQ out anymore, so I am gonna learn how to make BBQ and many sides at home. Also, I got sick a month ago at McDonald's (due to their onions on my QPC), and I'm still working on getting better -- nearly month later. So, I've been watching videos on learning how to cook more at home, because I'm not 100% sure of the safety of eating out. Yeah, I've had gastrointestinal issues from 10-22-2024 (Tues @ 3pm) until 11-18-2024 (Mon). But, I am feeling better and have been getting medical assistance, but this is worse than food poisoning. It's an E. Coli infection (I think) which happened from unwashed, contaminated onions.

    Here's my suggestion. Maybe just smoke them on the pellet grill and not try to sear on a pellet grill. Just save your pellets. Then, come inside and sear them BOTH SIDES in a cast iron skillet.

  • @PoeLemic
    @PoeLemic 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Just reading the title, that's the biggest damned thing that has happened to me a few times. I get some error code (about half-way through the damned cook) that is "LEr" or something like that. And, the Traeger turns off. And, the food is not even half-way cooked yet. So, we have done it overnight, then wake up and find that it's cold and not finished. So, it pisses a person off, because it has plenty of pellets. But, ours has the fire pit that gets too much soot in it and puts out the pellets. So, that's why it is important EARLY ON to run it awhile, get it hot, and have it fully cleaned from the last cook. But, I almost (seemingly) have to clean it out, mid-cook, but I don't. So, that's why we have taken the brisket inside after so many hours (say 7 or 8) on the Traeger and finish in the kitchen stove. But, yeah, I hate this so much when it happens.

    [Moving additional comment where other people can see it too ...] Really, thank you for sharing these instructions. I am going to read them and follow them on my next cook.

    Thank you for finally explaining this, because I sure have wondered. I always put my meats on the Smoke Setting for an hour or so, then I would crank it. But, I realize now that I wasn't cooking it hot enough, I think. Because it took far longer than it should, so we always took it inside and finished it -- just because it was taking forever.

    On the traeger website, it says the smoke setting is 60C, it's just the lowest temperature available. I always use the smoke setting for jerky, it doesn't fluctuate more than any other temperature setting. As for cold smoking, use a smoke tube, 60C is too hot for that.

    How do you keep the Treager smoking during long cooks ie a Brisket? I clean it out before smoking but 4-6 hrs in I get LEr. I have to take the brisket out and remove everything and clean it again. Is this just the nature of the smoker and long cooks?

    • @catchgrowcook
      @catchgrowcook 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Are you using a temperature setting such as 225 when smoking your brisket? Most Traegers and pellet grills are good for anywhere from 15+ hours of smoke time before enough ash builds up in the firepot where you need to vacuum it out. So you should be good smoking a brisket from start to finish if you just cleaned your firepot out.

    • @PoeLemic
      @PoeLemic 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, @Nikkie, I get the same thing on mine. You can read my comment above. Yeah, it's so frustrating. A few suggestions that I've found, is that the pellets might be older. If that happens to frequently, then the pellets might not be as good a quality. Also, if you keep your pellets outside, don't do that. Keep them in a sealed container that is air-tight and water-tight, then they will stay fresher. Because if they get calky, you're gonna have trouble ... TRUST ME. But, we also just cook for 4 / 5 / 6 hours outside, then take it inside to the stove and finish there. Then, you won't have a problem, especially if you wrap it after that. Because it's already got all of the smoke that it will get. [Or, that's my take. @CGC might differ.]

    • @PoeLemic
      @PoeLemic 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@catchgrowcook I just read your comment -- after I typed mine. What I've found, is that if you recycle your pellets ... say from last year, then you're gonna have the trouble that @Nikkie and I have had. But, if they are brand new, then it seems to happen less. I think in Houston, Texas, they take on some moisture and get caulky, which shortens their life and make them where they don't burn fully in the fire pit. Thus, they accumulate more ash. Thus, you get the "LEr Error Code", and you get screwed more often.

    Im glad you made this video! I absolutely hate dealing with soil. I've been thinking about this for a very long time, and everyone I spoke to about it says it is impossible.

      I used to hear that as well but hydroponics is where you grow plants in water instead of soil so it definitely is possible! Hydroton is great for helping keep your plants in place while they grow in water or hydroponic solution.

    66% germ rate is not good. There's a reason rockwool is used instead of straight to hydroton. It provides a more stable foundation for initial root development and will result in a thicker root collar.

      Rockwool and other mediums can cause root issues from being too damp

    Don't be afraid to cut back that motherplant further. And second tip: as soon as the cuttings have developed a strong web of roots: cut back just 3 to 5 cm above the soil. Even as they grow keep on cutting them back quit agressively
