    LATE BLIGHT ALERT! (Extremely dangerous disease to tomatoes & potatoes...)

    Good info thanks for posting it. I'm on the left coast and this is my first real year attempting to grow a garden. Not long after getting my raised beds finished and planted I learned about Blight. It appears the fruitless maples in both my front and back yard have it. The expert at the local...

    Perhaps it's just me but this seems a bit harsh and I can't see anything in this thread that would have provoked such a comment.

    Too much smoke?

    In a nutshell, too much smoke. You want thin blue smoke, not thick white smoke. Stop into roll call and introduce yourself. Take the 5 day ecourse and you'll be on your way to rib nirvana. This forum has all the info you need. Just sit back relax and start reading.

    Color?

    Quote: Yes. Your vent should always be open, never closed while smoking meat.

    Thanks for the info Tukson. I wonder if the floppier one was a left handed brisket.

    Tuscan Grill

    Can you elaborate on that please? At first I was thinking the same thing but after more thought I figured any drippings would just hit the hot coals and evaporate back up into the meat. I think for grilling over wood coals this would be fine but I can see where trying to do low and slow/indirect...

    When to pull?

    I've pulled them cold, warm. and hot. Never noticed a difference in the final product. Most important thing is to collect the juices in a ziplock bag and then cut the bottom corner and drain back into the meat until you get to the fat layer then pinch it off and toss it.

    Quick question(s) for pulled pork smoke.......

    As long as the meat is still good sitting an extra day in rub won't hurt a thing. Done it plenty of times. Agree with DP on the shoulder mostly because I've never cut one either and it seems like it would be a hassle without a band saw. I guess another option would be to take it to your local...

    Getting a WSM, but which one?

    Not a problem. I have the 22.5 and when I'm done cooking I just close down the vents and it puts the lump out leaving plenty to use for the next cook. Before the next cook I stir the coals in the basket with a pokerr to knock all the ash to the bottom then empty the ash out, add fresh lump if...

    I need help with a few lingering questions

    1. If it numbs your tongue when you taste it then yes it is creosote. 2. Never seen that particular smoker but it apparantly is well insulated. I have an MES watt burner and the ONLY time I ever close the vent down is to pre-heat the smoker with no meat or chips in it and even then I leave it...
