    Did a test. Need advice

    Since it looks like it might be tough to smoke an 8+ pounder on my 18inch grill would it be "possible" to maybe cut the butt in half and try smoking both halves on the grill at the same time?  Just a thought?

    Did a test. Need advice

    Thanks Wade.  You have been very helpful.  One last question.  Do you think it is possible in my kettle to do a 8-10lb pork butt or something similar?

    Did a test. Need advice

    So if I am understanding this correctly you are suggesting I use the snake method in one half of the kettle?  Not a full circle correct?  I am familiar with the snake method but I am trying to figure out my charcoal layout to start.  I know to put 2 coals side by side on the bottom layer.  On...

    Did a test. Need advice

    So I did a test tonight as I am working towards my first ever smoke..  I have a 18 inch Weber Silver Touch and I decided to test some temperature while I was grilling dinner tonight just to see what was what.  So here is exactly what I did. 1.  Filled chimney about half way to maybe a little...

    First smoke advice needed

    Ok I am very familiar with low and slow using coals on one side and meat on the other.  Been doing that for about a year now..  I also use a charcoal chimney.  So if I choose this method my question would be approximately how many briquets should I use?

    First smoke advice needed

    I am about to do my first ever smoke and hopefully the meat turns out great but to be honest this one is more for learning the overall process than anything.  Ok so here is what I have and want to do.  18" Weber Silver.  I have a 3-4lb pork shoulder.  I am thinking I would like to try the snake...

    Grill Thermometer Question

    Hi all.  My question has to do with the grill thermometer.  Currently I have an 18" Weber.  I know I know it's small but it is what I have.  I am close to doing my first smoke on it.  The last piece of equipment I need is a thermometer.  So the grill does not have on built onto the lid.  Nor do...

    First smoke coming up. Need a little advice

    All great information.  Thank you all.  So what I am getting out of this is to use a starter of 6-10 coals/briqs and add as needed.  I would get these to just ash starting on them and then dump them in? Control heat with the vents. Will this be able to handle a 8-10lb butt/shoulder?  Would...

    First smoke coming up. Need a little advice

    Hi all, I am brand new to all this but I do understand the overall concept of low and slow.  Here is my situation.  I have an 18# Weber Silver Touch grill.  No thermometer in the top.  I would like my first smoke to be a pork shoulder/butt, probably around 8-10 pounds.  I know I am looking for...
