    Thermometer in Weber Kettle

    I'm thinking of using an 2" Old Smokey Thermometer on my 22" Weber Kettle but I'm worried that I might ruin it since it only goes up to 475F.  Do you guys think I would ruin it or would it be fine once it goes down when I do smokes in it.

    Char-Griller Duo! Mods

    The conversion is great and I did it only because I was a newbie to smoking and wanted to start slowly and easily.  I put about 3 fist size chunks and that lasts about 1-2 hours.  You do have to find the sweet spot on where to put the can so that the chunks smolder rather than catching fire. ...

    Brown rusty residue after cooking on my Weber Smokey Mountain WSM

    Does this stuff have to be cleaned or can I treat my WSM like my Chargriller where I only removed the hard bites but leave my black seasoning alone.

    Brown rusty residue after cooking on my Weber Smokey Mountain WSM

    Woke up this morning to find a rusty cover on the underside of my WSM's lid and the inside body.  The previous owner who used it many times never got this residue.  The only thing I changed was covering the underside of the water with foil.  Could the foil be causing some reaction or maybe to...

    First Ribs on my New 22" Weber Smokey Mountain

    Did some beef ribs and some spareribs on my new to me Smokey Mountain.  Ribs turned out great way better than my Chargriller Trio.  The only thing I wish I could change is getting less pull back my beef ribs. Both were smoked using apple wood and Kingsford. Used the minion method, two full unlit...

    Defrosting a Brisket

    I got 2 brisket in my freezers and I'm wondering about how long would it take to defrost in the refrigerator.  Both are about 11-12 pounds each.  I would like to smoke them for next Sunday.

    Just Scored a 22.5" Weber Smokey Mountain

    Just bought a used but in excellent condition 22.5 WSM for $120. I'm looking at doing some beef ribs but am curious as to how much charcoal to load in it.  Was thinking maybe 2 chimneys worth of unlit and 1/2 lit or is that overkill for just ribs.  Any advice or suggestions as welcomed.  I'm so...

    Weber Out of Round Question

    Well I got my new lid in on Wednesday and I was pretty disappointed.  This is new lid is worse than the one I have.  The wobble was way worse and would not lay flat on a flat surface.  I finally just decided to bend the hell out the lid to make it sit right.  Little worried now since I did hear...
