    Help with First Roast on WSM

    Great breakdown and info - Thank you One think I have noticed is the temperatures seem much lower than I read on another site which suggested the meat to be 195 - 203 like a butt would be cooked.  Has anyone tried this or is this not the case for beef roasts?

    Which temp controller for WSM 18.5

    Thank you all for the great feedback.  I was hoping that by posting here I would be able to decide easier, although with great reviews of both, it made it harder.  I am sure that is a good thing, as I believe I would get a good product from either choice.

    Which temp controller for WSM 18.5

    Hello All, I am looking to purchase an auto temp controller for my 18.5 WSM, however I am a bit torn between a few.  I recently got for Christmas a Maverick 733, although I would like to add a BBQ Guru DX2 or a Auber Instruments SYL-1615SYS-W.  I must say it is hard to find those that have or...

    Looking to buy an electric smoker

    Congrats and enjoy.  When I had my electric I found out that the hickory can be a lot stronger than when using with charcoal.  I would go light with hickory and add apple.  Apply wood about every 30-40 min for no more than 2 1/2 hrs or they will be too tasting. Good Luck

    Temperature Control for WSM 18.5"

    Any other ideas - I think it is between the DigiQ or the Pitmaster.  Still am undecided seeing how this is a lot of money to spend. Which Guru do most use here??? I am a little concern on probes not lasting from some reports on the Pitmaster

    Baby Back WSM TIps

    Thanks for all of your appreciated help.  My ribs turned out good but a touch drier than I would like.  Of course this was only the 2nd cook after breaking it in so my temps couldn't regulate as well as I would have liked.  Any suggestions for round 2?? Method used: Mustard and dry rub let it...
