Here's my twins, all oiled and rubbed.

Thanks. I've got them rubbed and resting in the fridge, so a roll may be in order in the morning.

On my gas grill I do a meat loaf on a cedar plank, so that's for this, and fish. I need to bend the sides and arms.

I have one of these () and it doesn't fit on the grill due to the sides. I'm thinking I could bend the sides so they're 90 degrees from the base. Is this possible without wrecking it?

How folks been arrange two rack on the 18" WSM? I had thought about a rack per cooking grill, but that could get awkward. I have a standing rib holder I've used on my gas grill but I'm not sure it's the best method. And I'm getting the ribs from Costco, so I'm sure they're going to be bigger...

Thanks. I’m going to start prepping the cut Wednesday I’ll take plenty of pics.

Thanks guys. I thought I would ask before I got the axe out. Cheers.

Thanks Gary, ​We've been hitting 90F, which is far hotter than our normal September weather. 70's are the norm this time of year.

I know people use cedar planks for fish and other items, but could we use cedar chunks? And, could I use cedar from a tree i cut down this year? I imagine the wood needs to dry to ensure there isn't any sap.

I bought an 18" WSM, order a replacement top thermometer, and dual probe thermometer. I'm planning on cooking a top sirloin oven roast, can't recall the weight, but at about 225F, rough how long per pound? I'm just wondering if I need to start this Friday night, or really early Saturday morning...

I was looking at the Broil King chest smoker. I have a Broil King gas BBQ that's great. I ended up with the Weber 18" smoky mountain. There just seemed to be more reviews and how-to videos.

Thanks guys. No cooking today except burgers on the glass grill. Cheers.

I just bought the smoker, today in fact, but part of my research was the thermostat. I've seen various videos and posts on these, but was wondering what people here did. I'm eyeing this one: Cheers!

​Thanks Richie, I'm in Southern Ontario. ​I'm looking at this unit as a replacement thermometer.

I thought I had posted earlier, but I can't see it, so here goes. ​I had an 18" Weber Smokey Mountain on order from Amazon, but I couldn't wait. So I cancelled that, went to the local BBQ store, bought one, and now I've got it all put together and lit. Not going to cook anything today, but I...
