    Advice on 4-6 pork shoulders

    I have a 22" wsm and I've done 2 pork shoulders. I'm having a party in a few weeks and I would like to load this puppy up lol. I'm not worried about portioning out this time. The leftovers can be frozen. My dream is to do 4 but for those that got bold and did 6 at one time I would love to hear...

    Meal planning-does anyone do it?

    One of the things I have the most trouble with is meal planning. The other is "mise en place" We are a household of two so either I have a ton of leftovers or my freezer is filled with packages of meat that there are days that if I want to make x then need x y and z. This also affects how often...

    question about the forums.

    Tell me about the points system here. How do you give them, and how do you receive them? If a large amount is accumulated do you get a prize or is it more bragging rights? I don't post much but I do see people giving points out to members posts. Thank you.

    Just curious if anyone else has this problem

    I live in a house that has a yard with 2 grills, one charcoal, one gas and my wsm. I don't use them every week but I try to get out there. Our houses are next to each other and our lots are 50x100 just to give you an idea. I know the chimney creates a lot of smoke in the beginning so my question...

    Decisions decisions....

    I've had a brisket in my freezer for a couple of weeks now. I'm toying with the idea of smoking it for thanksgiving. I see all the great posts as well as the not so great posts about it so I'm a little apprehensive about it. My brisket I believe weighs about 8 lbs. I've never tried a brisket...

    Marinating St. Louis spare ribs

    Was invited to a birthday BBQ so I offered to bring 4 racks of ribs. I'm trying out marinating them first before I rub them with rub. I plan on putting them in the wsm early then foil/wrap them in towels and cooler to transport. Here they are taking a swim. The marinade I used was just a basic...

    Brining ribs

    I've done ribs with the regular conventional way of using mustard and rub and they just come out ok. For some reason I can taste the seasoning of the meat on the outside and not on the inside. The inside of the meat tastes rather bland. This is smoking them with the 2-2-1 method. We are not...

    WSM 22 1/2" modified grill???

    Has anyone modified their 22" to grill? and has it been successful? Personally I feel that weber should make an attachment for this because of one problem: Crispy chicken skin Any advice for modification is appreciated. The skin really needs direct heat. I know rock BBQ has fabricated pieces...

    Questions about transporting Fatties

    I love the idea of the original fattie and fattie ring molded in the bundt pan, who ever thought of that is a GENIUS! Id like to make one and then transport it. I'm also not sure if it will be eating it right away. My questions are, can it be wrapped up in the cooler and transported? And will...

    No thin blue smoke for me this morning :(

    So my intentions were to smoke two pork butts on my 22" wsm and it was a disaster. I used the minion method and I forgot to open up the top vent so I noticed about 45 minutes later. When I opened it up I got the thick white smoke. I thought it was going to taper off bit it didn't so I closed...

    Please clarify. Trying to achieve Wsm 22.5" high temps

    I have tried the minion method and moving the dampers to raise or lower temps for pork butts ribs etc.. I have looked on the virtual weber bullet sight and most of his research was done on an 18" wsm. Even though its the same type of smoker my numbers are off. I'm still trying to get used to...

    What to do with all of the leftovers.

    Sometimes it's pointless to only smoke one thing in my 22" wsm. For example, yesterday I smoke 4 racks of bb ribs and have a lot left over. (Long story) I can only give away so much. How do you take care of your left overs? It's just way too much for the two of us even with a hearty appetite.
