    WSM Temp Question

    I noticed the same thing.  My suggestion is to pick one and stick with it.  For me I stick with the maverick on the top grate.  Either way you are good to go.  A slight range isn't going to hurt anything.

    WSM question concerning wood chunks and minion method?

    Yeah I know.  I use the Smokin Al Ring method also for ribs and short smokes.  Works great.  For brisket and butts I load the ring up.  I like the results I am getting I was just wandering why one would do it that way.  And if there was a good reason behind it I would probably try it.  I still...

    WSM question concerning wood chunks and minion method?

    TBS might be why he stated that.  I was just wandering if others had thoughts on it.  I know there are a bunch of ways I just like to know why someone does it before I try it.

    WSM question concerning wood chunks and minion method?

    Thanks.  I have no complaints I guess I was wandering why Harry Soo would say to keep your chunks to the outside of the ring?  Anyone have any thoughts on this?

    WSM question concerning wood chunks and minion method?

    I have been using my 22.5 WSM with great results.  I have been using the minion method and been putting wood chunks through out the charcoal.  I recently ran across Harry Soo saying about only putting your wood chunks toward the outside of the charcoal ring when doing the minion method.  Does...

    The nitty gritty of foiling?!

    I have some time to pass until the Penguins play so I was looking around and thinking about the art of foiling.  I know some never use it while cooking but most will say they foil when resting.  Anyways a few things to ponder and discuss since I am always looking at all the little things people...

    Lowe's Master Forge Double Door racks

    A while back when I bought my perfect flame from lowes I simply called the company and was able to order one.  I can't remember how much it was but it wasn't that bad with shipping.

    Pulled Pork with my new AMNPS in the Wind...

    What kind of smoker are you using?  Propane?  Does it have bottom vents?  A little more info would be helpful.  I have found that my propane smoker is tricky to get the amnps to work well but I have figured out a few things that help.

    The Secret To Good Sliced Brisket Defies Conventional Wisdom

    Do you trim off any of the hard fat?  Or do you simply leave the brisket as is?  Also do you score the fat at all?  I still haven't made a brisket that I am proud of so this is a good read.

    22.5 WSM vs UDS

    Yeah that is a thought.  I was thinking of wheels but was wandering if they would melt?  I am really not sure.  Keep the thoughts coming.

    22.5 WSM vs UDS

    That is pretty cool but I need something that I can put a whole rack of ribs on or a whole brisket.  Right now I have to cut everything and when I upgrade I want something large.

    22.5 WSM vs UDS

    Thanks.  If I did break it down for a car trip I would wrap it in contractor bags.  I am just trying to figure out all the pros and cons before making a final decision.  So if it would be possible to fit it in my trunk and backseat of my car then that is a plus for the WSM. On another note how...

    22.5 WSM vs UDS

    Yeah I do not want to open a can just get some opinions.  As for the WSM if taken apart can you transport it in a car lets say a cavalier or a mazda 5?  I do not own a truck and if I wanted to transport one of these I do not think I could take the uds but wanted to see if I could transport the wsm?

    22.5 WSM vs UDS

    Alright I have done some research and pretty much know the pros and cons of each.  I have some extra money and am looking to upgrade to one of these.  I am leaning toward getting the 22.5 inch wsm but building a uds would save me money.  Is this saved money worth it or just spend the extra money...

    18.5 vs 22.5 Weber Smokey Mountain

    Good question.  Not to highjack a thread but where is the best place/cheapest place to order one.  Right now amazon is the cheapest I can find.

    Strong Smoke Flavor

    I say let it sit for 2 weeks.  It does get better with age.  Another thing to consider is the wood of choice.  Hickory has a "bite" to it and it is for some and not others.  I tried my first batch of cheese with hickory but I thought it had to much of a bite.  Since then I have been using fruit...

    Having problems with AMNPS

    Well Scarbelly it was a good idea.  I suspended a cooling rack underneath my waterpan using paperclips and sat the amnps on it.  I lit it from both ends and had 4.5 hours of nice smoke.  This is closer to what I was expecting.  I left the original chip pan in place and didn't add a brick or sand...

    What flavor is best for cheese?

    I have used hickory, apple, and peach.  Of the three I like apple the most with peach a very close second.  I found hickory to have a little to much bite for me with cheese.  I also smoke cheese for about 4 hours.
