    WSM wheels?

    T his cat on crap-book had bought a "rolling plant caddy" and set his 14"WSM in it. looked pretty cool but not big enough for an 18". I got to thinking, and that's dangerous itself, of going to the orange store and buying 4 locking casters and attempting the mod. I really don't need to move...

    drip pan for rib roast in WSM. or not?

    I'm doing my first rib roast in the WSM for Easter. Previously I've done them on a rotisserie in my Napoleon with a rear infrared burner. hey were always good, but no smoke (unless I added a tube). Trying to be different this year. The cook part is pretty elementary with all the therm probes and...

    completely muffed chuck burnt ends.

    down here Miami wayfinding an affordable brisket point is nary impossible, and I didn't want to drop a Benjamin to get a whole packer and have it cut, just for burnt ends.

    Wings,

    not to be contrary, but we do wings pretty often and never use the smoker. I'm sure a little smoke might enhance to outcome, but for an easy kitchen munch, I use my Cuisinart air fryer to whip up a batch. This time I tried an extra step....... a little "breading". It's been an age old...
