    Burgers

    I know, it's even later But here's what I do.... I always buy just "ground beef". I've found that the ground beef (80% at most) is made with the trimmings from roasts and steaks, so althought the fat content is higher, the quality of the meat itself is better. I make the burgers large to...

    Got a Webber Kettle !!

    Sounds like you've got the gold model. I've been cooking on mine for years. The propeller thing is the ash remover, move the handle back and forth, and all the ashes fall through the slots into the catcher.....one of the best inventions I've ever seen. As far as smoking, pile on one side...

    Beginner needs help

    I agree with Capt. Dan, mound on one side, and put the meat on the other. I would also (and I've done this with great success), put the water pan directly under your pork so the fat and rub get in there, and essentially baste the meat while it's smoking. I sometimes also put an quartered sweet...

    anyone ever use cherry wood?

    Yah, I'll bet it was the wood...either not really cherry, or not seasoned well...that'll give it a slightly "off" taste.

    Pecan

    I've got a medium sized pecan tree in my back yard. Every couple of years, I trim the bottom branches off, cut them into chunks and let 'em get seasoned (smaller pieces, faster season)... I don't use pecan on it's own, just to add depth, and a little "difference" to what I smoke. I usually use...
