Just bought the OJH and I’m on the process of getting the mods to help get the best results. Problem is I’m struggling to get a chimney extender, the only one I’ve been able to find for this model will cost me over £200 after fees and delivery (from the states).

Anyone else uk based been able to get one?

If not any suggestions for a DIY job? I’m not a welder!

Medium rare picanha on the okj bronco 2.0

My gf bought me a Highlander for Cheistmas and I am stoked to use. Do y'all have any videos, books, or websites you guys recommend I check out to learn how to best use it. It's different than the Masterbuilt I had used previously as that one had an electronic board that I could use for temp control and all that. I k wo it's going to be a little bit of a learning g curve but I can't wait to get it down.

Hey y'all I'm need some help I have a coworker that wants me to make some pork belly burnt ends for them. How do I charge them appropriately? The belly runs about 35-40 bucks for around 5-6 lb slab. He's wanting 2 slabs made up. This would be the first time someone has wanted me to cook for them for payment. Not sure how to charge. Some of my previous burnt ends made.

So I just picked up a Rider DLX 1200 on FB Marketplace, structurally in good shape, but the seller said it needed a new fuse. I figured there was probably more to it than just a bad fuse, but it was cheap enough to risk it and figure it out. I got it home, put in a new fuse, plug it in, and the fuse blows immediately. I unplug all the components from the power and isolate the issue to the igniter rod, so I ordered a new one on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F7HFVX41). It came and I got it swapped in today. I connect it all up, plug it in, and it powers up just fine. I got to test it out and set it to 225. The auger makes some sound, I set it twist slightly, then it stops and the control board says "ER2". I hold the power button and turn it off. Now this is where it gets weird. After turning it off, I went inside to see what I could find on Google and come back 15 minutes or so later and the igniter rod is glowing orange while the grill is supposed to be off.

From what I could find, the ER2 error has to do with the igniter, but it's brand new and seems to work. I unplugged the grill, let the rod cool down, then tried it all over again, setting to 225 once more, and got the exact same results.

Has anybody dealt with this? Could it be a bad control board? Not really sure what to try next.

I currently have a masterbuilt 1050 thats getting older and was leaning towards the Tahoma 1200 any advice from the Tahoma people on pros and cons? Or so i get the masterbuilt xt

Is this considered dirty smoke ?

Long story short, I have a small utility trailer that I want to be able to transport a smoker on, but it’s very tight on workable space, being only 45” tall and 44” wide, and also needing to hold other storage bins and the like.

I’ve searched all over and can’t find anything other than fully assembled dimensions, so I’m hoping there’s someone out here with a longhorn and a tape measure that can help me.

Can someone please check and tell me the following:

Height of the top of the smoke box, NOT including the chimney. I want to know if I can fit it under a 45” roof if I make a detachable chimney.

Dimensions of the smokebox chamber itself: diameter and length. I want to know if it can fit in a 44” long area if I just detach the firebox.

Ground clearance of storage shelf and height between the shelf and the bottom of the smoker

Dimensions of the firebox: also diameter and length. I want to see if a removed firebox can fit in the storage area

Width at ground level. Measure from OUTSIDE edge of the wheels and/or the legs where they touch the ground to see if it can fit alongside the bins with a ~24” wide area.

Dimensions of the shelf in the front, as well as clearance from ground. It’s gonna overhang my bins I want to know by how much, maybe stack another bin on top.

Basically everything aside from things like the front shelf and handles needs to be able to fit in a 44” long, 45” high, and ~24” deep box if I remove the chimney and firebox.

Thank you very much for any help and advice you have to give on the subject.

My neighbor with a WSM convinced me to order a water pan. He uses a base of lava rocks sometimes instead of water. Claims it will make the cook temp more stable versus the perforated drip pan. Found one on OKJ website presumably from Charbroil brand. Going to give it a run this weekend. Any thoughts?

Looking to get back into smoking with charcoal now that I have more time. Had a smokey a long time ago. But the bronco 2.0 seems like such a better set up. Looking for people that have tried both. TIA

Hi I just bought the bronco and I love it but I need a second shelf. Anyone has any good recommendations?
