    I know this is probably been asked before but I'll throw this out there one more time. I usually start my Weber Smokey Mountain mini using the minion method with some wood chunks on top. I've heard some people having issues doing it this way since bringing the temperature up on the barbecue can...

    First smoked chicken on the new wsm mini

    I air dried it for about 4 hours in the fridge before running the skin with butter.  I put the chicken directly on the coals afterwards, but the flare ups were crazy and I just kept pulling it off so it wouldn't look awful.  I think i'll try some chicken thighs tonight at 325-350 the whole way...

    First smoked chicken on the new wsm mini

    Final product. The skin wasn't crispy as I wanted it to be. Will have to experiment a little more or read up in how to get it crisp. But overall turned out great. Lots of fuel left to keep it going for a couple more hours.

    Maverick et732 - to silicone or not?

    Thanks for the reply Kurt. I may grab some silicone when I'm at the hardware store if it's cheap. I'll have to be extra careful and make sure that I don't get them wet or over 600°.

    Maverick et732 - to silicone or not?

    Thanks. After reading up some more, I think I can skip the permatex part and just use some heat shrink tubing to cover where the wires meet the probes. Just to be safe.

    Maverick et732 - to silicone or not?

    I've read a lot on the forums about the probes on the maverick et732 getting warn out or damaged by water or carelessness. Being a bull in a china shop (wife's words not mine) I'm wondering if people silicone their probes right away, or if they wait til after the warranty expires? Would doing...
