    Reheat my butt in zip bags

    alelover. Does the pork get too wet from steaming? Does it loose flavor?  Taste watery. I don't want to sound "fanatic" about this.  Hosting an 80th B-party.  Last used my ECB 5yrs ago because it did not work too well.  Then found SMF and the ECB mods.  I'm in the process of doing them now...

    Thermometer mount drywall anchor weber 9815

    Thanks for everyone's input.  I'd probably be thinking about it every time I used the smoker.  So I re-did it with SS washers and burned the anchor. Adding a "note" on the instructions. I would try to use a "nut" when compressing.  The first try worked fine but the second one.  The threads...

    Thermometer mount drywall anchor weber 9815

    I previously read someone using that "lamp" sleeve.  What I liked about this is how nicely it fit in.  I'll probably redo it with SS washers and torch the anchor. Thanks Mark

    Thermometer mount drywall anchor weber 9815

    SO, did I shoot myself doing this.  I'm guessing there is zinc in this thing and in the washers.  Today I found some posts about zinc in smokers.  Is this a BAD idea. Mark

    Thermometer mount drywall anchor weber 9815

    Sorry about no pic's.  I have to learn how to do that. TJohnson nailed it though. no pun intended. What I did. Bend the little points on the "round head" flat. (the part that would normally stick into the the drywall, under normal use) Cut about 1/16 inch off the threaded end. Just enough to...

    Thermometer mount drywall anchor weber 9815

    Thought I'd pass this on.  FYI.  I mounted a Weber 9815 thermometer 5 inch probe in my ECB using a drywall screw anchor.  The metal screw clamp type.  Don't know the exact name.  What's nice is the thermometer slides in and fit's just perfect.  This probe is 5/32 diameter.  I mounted it on the...

    Reheat my butt in zip bags

    Sorry, I have to at least  try to check, I'm really concerned about disaster.  I need to reheat pulled pork.  In regular zip bags in water, don't have a sealer.  If I double bag things can I feel confident things won't go bad.  Never did this and hosting a party for 30.  moms 80th.  Any tips for...

    Replacement charcoal tray..

    I'm not familiar with a Royal Oak char grill but maybe.... Not sure how desperate you are but you might   If the rim is still fairly solid.  Get a piece of sheet metal, cut some relief slots (for the sides) and "bend" it into  shape.  Depending on the detail of the shape probably will determine...

    Q on most important ECB mod

    Hi, I want to start using my ECB again...been a few years.  Have not used it because... "I did not trust it".  Basically temps, fire control.  I've read and seen a lot of the mod's.  Replace the thermometer, bottom vents on the fire pan, add top vents.  They all make good sense.  But I'm a...
