    Looks like I'll be sticking with Maverick thermometers

    I don't blame you at all. Find something you like and works for you... Definitely stick with it! Of course until you need something with more options... We always need more options! :)

    Looks like I'll be sticking with Maverick thermometers

    That's a bummer! I had a Maverick 732 a few years ago. I have no real complaints with that unit at all. I use all ThermoWorks thermometers now. They are definitely built tougher. Never had to change a battery yet or recilbrate any of them. Good luck with your new thermometer.

    1st over night WSM 22

    Glad to hear your cook is going well. Personally I don't wrap brisket. Well until I take it out to rest. When the brisket is ready to come off I place it on a sheet pan lined with foil. I partially wrap so the meat can cool down a bit. Then wrap and into the cooler. I find letting the...

    1st over night WSM 22

    That could be the difference with a stock no mod WSM 22 versus one with a controller. That is part of the fun...learning what works for each of us!

    1st over night WSM 22

    Good luck with your 1st overnight cook! I overnight all the time with WSM 22. This cooker once dialed in will run for up to 16 hours on a full bag of KBB. Depending on how cold it is I will start with about 25 or 30 lit coals - but not fully ashed over. I do not use a controller with mine, but...

    [Stupid] GREAT! Question

    I like to use a welding brush with stainless bristles. When there is buildup I cant get off with the brush I up the heat and use some water to create steam. I clean my smoker as soon as I take the food off.. I find this makes cleanup a lot easier. Then I will season the grates after cleaning.

    Glad to have found you!

    Add 1 quick comment to item 1. You may have to adjust the amount of lite coals you start with. It is mostly easier to bring the temp up versus down.

    Glad to have found you!

    Welcome from Cleveland. Here are some quick answers and by no means complete..but a good starting point. 1. Keep is steady by controlling air flow and the amount of fuel that is burning at any given time. 2. Keep your temps low and spritz the meat. A simple spritz is 50/50 apple juice and...

    Confused

    I burned only wood in mine. Never attempted to use charcoal. I had a 24x48 offset. I would imagine it would consume a lot of charcoal.

    Temp for wings?

    Vortex is my new go to for wings. You could give them a little smoke in your treager then on the grill. I simply put a smoking wood on the grate above the vortex. Works great since chicken doesn't need much smoke.

    CI Skillet Dips?

    Any hot dip can be done in a skillet on the smoker. Buffalo chicken dip sounds like a good trial. The one above looks good also!
