Well my first ever turkey fry was a success! Thanks for all the suggestions and safety tips. No issues! I can't wait for the next one. Pete

Thanks for the great tips. I'm going to fry a turkey for the first time. I have a 26 quart Kingkooker with a squareish pot. I can't find anywhere what size turkey this will fit. Any suggestions? Thanks, Pete

I can't believe how good these turned out! A little over six hours with an hour rest. I used a slather of Louisiana hot sauce, coarse salt and pepper. Easiest cook yet. Put it on, took it off and wrapped for an hour. My family loved it. This was my first attempt at beef. A primer to my first...

I also cannot believe that I fought fires for so long without a Weber. It's as close to set and forget as you can get. I can't wait for my next cook

I had a 5050 for about five years. I found that starting the chimney starter with the exterior stovetop burner was the easiest thing to do. I think that you could put a light coat of oil on the inside of the barbecue grill on the charcoal side if you like but I don't think that it's absolutely...

Thank you!!

I had that same grill for about five years. I enjoyed having the gas, charcoal, and the offset box for the occasional smoke. While I liked the idea of having three grills in one, as I grew into the grill I realized that it did all three of those things just okay and I found the need to improve...

Here's another pic For some reason a pic with the full slabs would not load.

Hello all, First I'd like to thank everyone who posts in this site. I learned so much from you! I stepped up from a chargriller to a new WSM. I added a gasket kit, wheels, hinge and BBQ Guru. 2am came early but it was well worth it. I fired up the chimney and soon I was watching the guru...

Thanks for making that video.

Thanks for all the support. This is a great place to learn, I dedicate this great moment in smoking history to all of you, but sorry, I just finished off the left overs today!!!............pete

Thanks, Sam... I used equal amounts of hickory and apple...I can't wait for left overs tonight when I get home from work...Pete

I finally got a spare 12 hours to start my first ever butt. I smoked only twice before, with one good and one not-so-good result with ribs. I started at 0450 and about twelve hours later, I had the most juicy, delicious pulled pork sandwiches I ever had!!!! I rubbed and smoked a 7+ lb butt at...

Thanks for all the great advice. I will keep working on it. I am not gonna let this get me down!! -Pete

Hello all, I had a good first exerience with ribs on my new smoker on father's day. I had my folks in town this week and prepared a smoked rib dinner. They were all ready for the best ribs on the planet after hearing about the first rib smoke... I did not do everything the same as the first...
