Welcome to the forum and your new weekend obsession! Lol!
Congrats on the great new smoker too...theyre beautiful units.

As far as altitude goes...the only info I can pass on reliably is that water boils at a lower temp(b/c of a lower barometric pressure value) at higher altitudes. So figure out what temp water will boil at your altitude(google it)and be aware that taking I.T of the meat your cooking above your...

Awesome looking bark on that PP!! Great job!!
But I have to ask.....how did you ever last 6 years without a smoke??? You must've just come out of a coma is all I can think of !!

I use the same amount (2-3 chunks) in my 18.5". On start up I do get a bit of thicker white smoke but after the vent adjustments are made and I let it sit at my ideal temp for 20 mins or so, it thins right out. I put the meat on a couple mins after the smoke thins and within 15 mins of that I...
Try packing the charcoal ring a bit tighter and get a probe thermo to read chamber/meat temps. I just found out that my dome temp reading of 200* actually resulted in top/bottom grates @ approx 240*. Wind, misleading temps and a new shiny WSM interior would be my guess at why you burned soooo...
I thought it was interesting too Al. I assumed wrong that in my unit that temps would be lower above the water and the highest heat would be at the top as long as I let the unit settle in @ constant temp for a bit. The temp results remained "upside down" for the entire cook with the lid...
Thanks. I think there's only a little info on the topic because everyone uses a separate digital thermo and ignore the factory ones on the unit. A dual probe like the Maverick ET732 seems to be boss b/c one probe does the chamber and the other is for the meat. An investment in time and care can...
Hey guys, just wanted to add a little info for the 'search bar' about the factory dome lid temp gauges on the new 18.5 WSM models.
The lead on my digital probe thermo crapped out on me a couple days before my new WSM arrived and being eager to fire the new girl up combined with laziness led me...
I use Firefox too but have just been using the picture icon labeled "insert image" 5 spots to the left of the smiley face...seems to work good for me with no resizing of pics....good luck.
