    Questions for WSM owners

    I just had my first smoke on my 18.5 the other day. I ran my thermo wires under the lid too. I had no problem adding wood chunks through the door, but it would be a pain for a complete reload through the door because the water pan is in the way.

    Turkey question

    Good Job! I have done the breasts of 2 birds over this past year. I didnt brine any of them. I did inject 1 with a butter and garlic creole mixture. But the rest i just seasoned and threw on the smoker and covered with bacon. I liked that the best. They all turned out great. Wild turkey is much...

    Got a dilemma

    Depends on which counties you are talking about. If you are in the quarantine area you can take wood where you want within the quarantine area. And if your not in the quarantine area you cant take wood where you want. You just cant take wood from a quarantined county to a non-quarantined...

    Got a dilemma

    Everyone is on the right track here. She would have to pay good money for removal. But i am going to say that most of that wood will be useable for you. Standing dead wood doesnt easily rot. Im not saying there wont be any rotten wood there, but the fact that its standing should be a pretty...

    Termites an issue?

    I would use it...I really dont think its going to hurt you. I dont know that for sure, and im no doctor or a lawyer. But i dont see why it would. Just dont keep the wood in your house, garage, or stacked right next to either. In fact, i used some cherry with some larvae in it from im...

    Little help identifying some wood?

    Are the 2 top pieces freshly cut? The grain should be pretty colored on a fresh cut/split piece of hickory. Not all hickory is stringy...but shagbark is. But theres also shellbark and bitternut i think

    WSM for $150 on Akron CL

    I agree...i started tying in smoker cooker or smoker grill to avoid the cars. This is the first deal i have seen on a smoker. Most are either big expensive or used junky ECB's or maybe an offset.

    Boiling Your Ribs Tutorial

    Yeah, i have done it more than a few times. When i was in college. If i saw ribs on sale i always bought a few racks...no smoker. Just a range and a grill. Boiled them...finished them on the grill with sauce. Better than Ramen Noodle and Cheff Boyardee!!
