    WHAT IS EVERYBODY SMOKING, GRILLING OR STEWING FOR THE 4TH OF JULY?

    Thanks, David, although I suspect you meant to refer to Suie's photo. I'm off to a late start: had to run to the store. Got the WSM fired up now and waiting for the pit to get to temp. Glad that baby backs don't take too long, or I'd be in trouble! Happy 4th, all!

    WHAT IS EVERYBODY SMOKING, GRILLING OR STEWING FOR THE 4TH OF JULY?

    Off to a good start, David. Looking forward to watching your thread on the holiday! Regarding the ABTs, I'm interested in trying a variety that I saw somewhere (maybe here?). I'll split the jalapeno length-wise like a boat, add some cream cheese, and put a cocktail sausage (aka "little smokie")...

    Smoke #3: QView - Baby Backs

    I just did my first attempt at baby backs a couple of weeks ago, and I plan to do some more on the 4th. They cooked quicker than I thought they would...kind of like what you are seeing. I think I might cut the times a little shorter, so I can have a little more time with the sauce on them. Last...

    WHAT IS EVERYBODY SMOKING, GRILLING OR STEWING FOR THE 4TH OF JULY?

    My local family-run store has baby backs on sale. Had them a few weeks ago, and I was very pleased with how they turned out, so I'll probably pick up a couple of racks for Thursday. I've been wanting to try ABTs. I've never had one before, but they sound awfully good! Maybe I'll make a batch to...

    Doing First Boston Butt.

    Looks great, Pureflusher! Congrats! I'm lucky: my wife doesn't mind the smoky smell a bit.

    Doing First Boston Butt.

    Yes, please show us some Q-view! I'd also like to know how much time it took. My two 4+ lb. butts took much longer than I anticipated: almost 11 hours in total. I even had them separated from each other so as not to seem like one larger cut, but the wait was worth it. I'll have to start much...

    Doing First Boston Butt.

    Well, I'm still learning myself. Posted on another thread that I have two 4+ pounders cooking now. I said I was debating whether to foil or not, but I didn't. Finally got out of the stall just now (happened at 160* a couple of hours ago), but it's still not advancing much. I did not raise the...

    First WSM smoke

    I've had a Weber kettle for decades...always closed the vents to save what's left. I bought my 22" WSM earlier this year, and I've always done the same. It goes out fairly quickly, and before the next smoke, I stir the leftover coals around to get the ashes to the bottom, and them dump them out...

    Alright guys, a little dilemma hit!

    I've gotten bit myself a few times by autocorrect...one in particular that I can't post here, but it was hilarious (although a bit embarrassing). Enjoy your Father's Day!

    Alright guys, a little dilemma hit!

    I hope the butts turn out great, but I just had to admit to a good laugh...it could be one of those spell-check gotchas. I think you meant to say that you doused it.

    Happy Fathers Day to all of you DADS!!

    Happy Father's Day to all the dads! As usual, I still have to cook. Got a couple racks of baby back ribs all rubbed down and ready for the WSM. Danged weather people said that the rain was supposed to hold off until late afternoon...they were wrong again! I'm just keeping my fingers crossed...

    Pork Butts in WSM

    Looks great! I have yet to use the bottom grate on my 22" WSM...I always put foil pans there. I've also never tried using sand. Just a thought: if you're using sand, and you want to use both grates, couldn't you indent the sand in the middle (making it concave), and place foil on the top of it...

    WSM too hot?

    Jerseyguy: Definitely look at the links that fpnmf posted. I bought my WSM earlier this year. I installed JIRodriquez' mod for the Maverick probes (I bought the 732), and I also installed gaskets. I did both before the very first use...

    Congrats to TulsaJeff and SMF!!!

    This is a great site! Chock-full of great recipes, techniques, pictures, and friendly folks. I especially appreciate the people here that are willing to help through the threads and private messages. I'm sure glad I found this place...not sure what took me so long.  Congrats, and thanks...

    WHAT ARE YOU SMOKING, GRILLING, OR COOKING FOR MEMORIAL DAY. PLEASE POST YOUR PICS

    Bobcats: I've never used lump in my WSM. Kingsford is supposed to be much easier to control, so that's what I have always used (keeping in mind that I'm new to this...just got the WSM earlier this year, but it's already gotten a lot of use). I'd save the lump for the grill, though! A 100 degree...

    Those Cornish hens sure look tasty! Not sure if it's been posted here already, but Lowe's has 2x20 lb. bags of KB for $9.99. Tomorrow is the last day.
