    Smoking in the rain

    I just bought a used WSM,18", and, of Course, its been raining here ever since. The question is, how well does WSM perform in the rain? Light rain, no overhead cover. TIA.

    Briquettes

    Thoughts on using briquettes only to smoke, lately iv been using lump with a few chunks mixed in. Seem to be having trouble finding lump around central ohio, and the last bag I did find seemed to leave a, sort of, dirty taste on the meat. Any thoughts on that as well? TIA.

    Dry pork loin?

    I did cook the sirloin end. I still have the other end in the freezer. This gives me a lot to work from, thanks for all of the help everyone.

    Thanks for everyone's help, it looks like I'll be giving the Inkbird a try. Price seems reasonable.

    Looking for opinions on multi probe, wireless thermometers. I already have a ThermoPro that works OK, but thinking about trying a multi probe.

    I have some pork neck bones that I want to smoke. Other than the usual low and slow with a little SPOG, any suggestions?

    Seasoning pork butt

    I'm starting to lean in this direction, so many of the rubs I've tried tend to be way to far on the salty side for both my wife and I. Think I might try just seasoning by eye like I would something going on the grill. Who knows till I try?
