    Mini WSM Build & First Smoke

    In the mean time, here is a photo of the best brisket I have smoked and tasted - and note I am a Texan and have tried to copy the brisket of an old black man who use to smoke brisket in South Fort Worth in the 40s (I am sure he used Oak).. I trimmed the Brisket leaving about 1/4" of Fat on top...

    Mini WSM Build & First Smoke

    FWIsmoker:  Thanks for the pictures.  I have two new racks and will add another rack 4" below the top rack.  Also I will keep the pot steamer tray intact and have a steel pizza pan that fits the top of the Smokey Joe Base perfectly.  I will drill holes in it and post pics when completed.  Thanks!

    Ol'Mikey and Oldschoolbbq:  Thanks for your comments.  I will be posting more, especially when we return home to Texas.  I use my WSM 22.5 for large smoking (smoked 55 Lbs of Brisket for our church on Mothersday) and will use the Mini for smaller smokes.

    Mini WSM Build & First Smoke

    FWIsmoker:  I already had the small cats bowl modified to prevent clogging and have just made the charcoal basket and cut out the bottom of the pot.  QUESTION about placing the bottom rack on top of the steamer insert -- when smoking on the bottom rack, how do you prevent the meat from burning...

    FWIsmoker:  Sounds good - My grandson and I will start on the modification this week. When I am smoking whole chickens, I have found it best to spatchcock them. Thanks!

    FWISmoker:  I have the expanded metal to make the charcoal basket.  Would like to see how you mounted the steamer insert for diffusion and to allow the drips to hit the charcoal.  I assume you placed the insert where it was designed to go in the bottom of the pot and them placed the bottom rack...

    Dirtsailor - thanks for the reply.  I am going to order a Mav ET732 when I return home to Texas.  Presently, I have access to my son-in-laws digital.  My primary smoker is a Weber Bullt 22.5" which remains in Texas. But this mini is great for trips and camping. Thanks for you comments.

    Mini WSM Build & First Smoke

    My Completed Mini-WSM Completed Mini WSM.  We are visiting our Daughter and Son-in-Law for the summer.  Being away Texas and my WSM 22.5", my grandson Jacob & I built two Mini-WSMs in July.  We used the Smokey Joe Silver because they were readily available in the Saint Peters, MO area.  At the...
