Is this talk of sand and thermal conductors new? I'm actually sitting at my desk thinking you've all split the atom again or something. Learned more in the last five minutes about my WSM and a new way to use it, so thank you.
I get the explanation that Brian gives and understand the theory...
Looking for a place to stop and grab some lunch. We know about Commissary BBQ - any suggestions of something just off the highway (coming from TX to Nashville) that an easy on/off to pick up some great BBQ?
Thanks in advance.
reeko - I was about to post the same thing. We use a shovel handle that we put through the handle of the rack the bird sits on to give us some distance from the pot, then glove and jacket up and go though about 4-5 slow dip in, pull out cycles before we seat the bird for the soak. Knock on...
In far north Fort Worth here...welcome. I also have WSM that I got dirt cheap at a yard sale and it's served proudly for two years now.
This is a great site, plenty of experience and help are available, just ask.
...but I installed a thermometer on my WSM 18.5" that didn't have one before. Now I don't have to open the lid to check the oven thermometer that I was using previously. HAs big numbers that are glow in the dark along with the needle. Boss.
Between a vacation, a near freezer disaster and life, FINALLY got to smoking some ribs after being inspired on Memorial weekend. And remembered to take some photos.
Typical 3-2-1 method. Used two different rubs. Top one is Maple Pecan that I got from Cabella's. Bottom is from Smokey's BBQ...
I have a WSM 18.5" that I want to install a thermometer in the lid so I don't have to keep opening it to see the over thermometer that I'm currently using. Any advise on drilling a hole, and where, to get the most accurate readings? Don't want to mess it up by trial and error.
Thanks!
