...post. Let me know if I posted this in the wrong place. My neighbor smoked some ribs for me on his Weber Kettle. I caught the bug and build a MiniWSM to get me started. I just seasoned it today, or think I seasoned it. I lightly sprayed the inside surface with Pam and then ran it for an hour...
As the title suggests, I need some help with my brisket which I'm not really happy with how it's turning out. With most things I like to figure it out myself through trial and error because I feel like it's more rewarding when you finally get it right, but with how expensive brisket is, I feel...
I don't use my pellet grill to do my snack sticks as it doesn't go to a low enough temperature. I use my WSMmini charcoal grill. I really had spotty results trying to use my pellet grill to do any kind of smoked sausage. I find I need to start at 140 F and increase 10 degrees every hour until...
Har! The sacrifices we make! I can get my WSMMini up there. Just do a whole chimney of charcoal and open those dampers!
Thanks for the kind words and point, Chris!
Thanks for the point Richie!
You're right George. I will likely get one for my Kettle some day, but the MiniWSM is SOOO efficient and perfect for a single bird or roast. Even without a lid. I may end up making a ring for it since no one sells a ring for the mini. Plus I take it camping so the portability aspect is...
Hey all. So it’s been a long time since I’ve posted. Several years back I jumped on the MiniWSM truck and had great smoke success and fun with it. About a year ago the bottom of my Smokey Joe finally rusted out enough that I could no longer use it. I’ve been using a 22” Weber with some mods to...
Welcome to the site, I don't use a mini, but I do use a WSM. I would think they run similar, and I leave my top vent open and adjust for temps using the bottom vents. If you have a really clean burning smoke going on then the upper vent can be used also. Foamheart makes a good point - start off...
...no accounting for taste... Just kidding.. I live near Eugene and not a loyal Duck fan either, but do watch a lot of college ball.
Have you given any thought to adding a digital controller to your WSM? I really like my BBQ Guru for the long smokes. It gets used 2-3 times a week with my MiniWSM.
It’s been a while and I’ve been having the itch to smoke something. Picked up a turkey breast on clearance last week and smoked it for Sunday dinner. Just a hair under 8 lbs.
Used apple and hickory in the WSM and took it to an IT of 165. Took about 3.5 hours. The Mrs got some mini-potatoes...
I use these type gaskets on my WSM, cheap charcoal grill and my Kamado, they work great, help keep temps steady, I only want the smoke coming from the chimney or top vents not leaking all over the place, opinions vary though...
My sister was nice enough to get me a Smokey Joe for my birthday, and seeing as how I love my WSM 22, of course I have to get started making a mini.
I have searched the forums a few times for this and haven’t found anything so my question is, has anyone tried using a Granite Ware pot for the...
...DO in the middle and snake some coals around the outside with a couple wood chunks. And lastly, and I have to check, If my DO will fit in my MiniWSM. If it does, I'll let the Guru manage the cook.
I think I'm clear of any bride issues... I staked my claim of the kitchen as mine years ago...
...do a full bird cook on about 3/4 of a chimney and have some left over without doing or needing the minion method. (However, this is with a MiniWSM) Its a hot and fast cook vs low and slow, so you don't need any more unlit coals for minion. I have learned how to gauge how much fuel I will...
Smoked salsa??? Man that sounds good.
I have a old smoke n grill in my basement, havent used it for years. I built a uds and a miniwsm and a wood fired uds.
Drum roll . . . the Smoker has been bought! Thank you so much to everyone who's provided such helpful advice! I really appreciate it.
I had been seriously considering the WSM. I still think it's a great smoker, and probably would enjoy having one sometime. After quite a bit of thinking, a...
...skin and can cook much faster.
A lot will depend on the size of your bird you are cooking, but I cant fit a whole spachcocked turkey in my MiniWSM. But I could if it was halved and done on 2 levels (alternating them during the cook). A whole bird fits nicely standing up on a rack like "beer...
TT's don't go in my MES either. Spinning a tri-tip is my favorite so far. Or just a straight up roast in my miniWSM with the lid on over chunks and charcoal is amazing without spinning.

Exactly, When I do ribs in my WSMMini I cut the racks of ribs in half, and I stack another metal rack on spacers for another layer. I have used rib racks, and they will cook the ribs alright, but not as well during the braising phase as you mention. You have a lot more room in your KJ that I do...
Masterbuilt Electric 30- Nowdays its mostly bacon, jerky, cheese, and sausage- set and forget electric with pellet tray smoking
WSMMini- Tri-tips, whole birds, PP, or other roasts, with or W/O rotisserie. VERY efficient indirect cooker. Portable camping cooker. Also doubles as a grill for...
