What's for dinner tonight? Dinner ideas?

Not dinner tonight but thought I’d share. Soon to be bacon! If you haven’t made bacon yet you are missing out on a true joy!

And I love to cut off an end before I cure it to make burnt ends. Ummmmm!

Brisket at 198f and wouldn’t go higher, Traeger runnin 250ish FB temp. Probed like butter, so I pulled it. It’s resting in a foil boat cover in peach paper sitting in the cooler.

Houston, we have a problem, grill just flamed out, I was out walking the dogs, checked the grill from my watch only to see pit temp sinking. Came home opened the lid, it triggered a restart. 66 degrees out, overcast, pretty odd.

Must be a day for freak outs, mine has been smoking a little out of the hopper. It’s weird, it comes and goes, not consistent.
 
I am thinking a bigger grill is in store for next year for me.

Chicken 🐔 thighs, pork loin chops and some smoke Cheez-it crackers....yes I am addicted
Using the FB for the first time after getting g it back from the factory repair. Seems better, not rebooting and temps seen to be displaying as normal. The screen does refresh every once in a while. Can't recall if that was like that before.

Smoked crackers? Do you do anything special (ie seasoning)?

I was talking to a Traeger rep last summer and he said he smokes Ruffles chips.
 
1st attempt on a pellet smoker. In the end, pretty darn good brisket. Learned a few things. Really impressed with the Lumberjack pellets, dont think I even needed a smoke tube. Almost every time I looked at it there was visible smoke. Outside temps really changed my grill temps overnight compared to other smokers I've had. Will change a few things next go around. Happy with this one though.

I posted a couple recipes on here for them.
Very easy to do. One bag of Cheez-it crackers, three tablespoons olive oil and one tablespoon of your favorite rub.
Smoke for a couple hours.
I just put it on with whatever I am smoking.
Potato chips sound interesting too

Looks like you could use a bigger grill , T1300
 
Mine was a total blow out, clearly it attempted restarts on its own, overflowed the firepot, forced smoke into the hopper big time. I had to pull the plug, go in with gloves and water sprayer, pull it down, clean and restart, ARRGH!

I'm guessing weak hotrod.View attachment 6039
Mine looked like this, last part of the cook was TRAEGER pellets.
