    First pork butt, in progress, with q-view.....update: it's done

    Hmmm, apparently I managed to pull an "oops".  I checked the temps again and it was back down near 230.  Couldn't figure out what was going on especially since I just tossed some fresh lump on about 20 minutes ago.  So I lift the other side of the lid where the air probe is to see if something...

    First pork butt, in progress, with q-view.....update: it's done

    Well, it's getting closer, 179 IT and the smoker is running in the mid 240's.  I keep trying to get it up to or over 250 but it's not wanting to cooperate.  I had 263 once but it dropped back down.  I'm pretty sure it's the Kingford stuff clogging things up.  I got a good look in there as the...

    First pork butt, in progress, with q-view.....update: it's done

    Yep trying not to.  I'm about to run downstairs and check the temps and then toss some English Bangers sausages on and a pecan chunk to get some smoke started again (want to see how the bangers are when smoked), but that will be the last time it's opened until it's done then unless I decide to...

    First pork butt, in progress, with q-view.....update: it's done

    So I started my first pork butt ever this morning, and 2nd smoke on my 18.5" WSM.  It's 4.8lbs but I got it on a little later than I wanted to (about 11am) to be done hopefully by 7-7:30 tonight.  It's sitting around 167 right now and has been smoking at about 235-250 with 4 small pecan chunks...

    Urgent can I use a lime to hold the temp probe?

    Thanks guys, I'm running out to the store in a few anyway so I think I'm just gonna grab a small potato to be safe.

    Urgent can I use a lime to hold the temp probe?

    Title says it all.  Forgot to pick up a small potato to hold my air temp probe for an 8 hour or so smoke that I just started.  Are there any issues a lime might cause like damage to the metal from the juices or the lime might give off some odd flavor during the smoke?

    Is a propane smoker worth it?

    Just to comment on the grill vs. dedicated smoker since I started out on my grill as well (and older 3 burner front to back Weber Genesis I inherited with wood slat shelves and red paint).  You can definitely do some good smoking on it, but it's a LOT more work.  I did a 6lb brisket a few weeks...

    Pretty good potato salad recipe

    The girlfriend found this one night and it's pretty good.  She's deathly allergic to mustard so trying to find a good recipe for potato salad without it is kinda hard.  I should note, we double the amount of potatoes (you'll need to adjust the salt a bit if you do that).  Otherwise there is...

    Problems with my new WSM 18.5

    Yeah it doesn't get humid in Sacramento in the summer, that's why I was so stumped about the water in the bottom because I know for sure I didn't spill any this time.  I got done cooking, closed up all the vents, then it sat from Monday night until last night (Wednesday) before I got a chance to...

    Problems with my new WSM 18.5

    I could try it dry.  I'm pretty sure (99.99%) that nothing was spilled this last time.  I did a little more searching and it sounds like closing all the vents up and leaving the water pan in there could be the culprit causing condensation.  I think in the future I will remove the water pan at...
