    First time brisket!

    Thanks everyone! The taste was amazing, except I think I'd trim a bit more fat off next time.  Also, I want to try mesquite since I've read in other posts that mesquite smoked brisket is amazing.

    Chimney smoke at 5am & Neighbors

    Tried the side burner method for my cook starting late last night and that worked like a charm! Totally get the losing fuel of not doing it in the WSM itself but this method I think will get me by for now.

    First time brisket!

I let it come to room temp a bit before putting on the WSM with some oak at about 11pm. Woke up during the night to...

    "Hot" Smoked Cheese

    These look great! I'd love to try that! May be a dumb question but how'd you keep them from melting? Were they frozen?

    WSM decision... 18 or 22?

    I have and love my 18" WSM but I say go for the 22". Bigger is always better

    What is your favorite go to wood and why?

    I've been really partial to apple, especially for pork, but I really enjoy hickory as well. I am trying oak for the first time this weekend and looking forward to it. Has anyone tried those bourbon barrel wood chunks? They look interesting but the reviews seem incredibly mixed. Also seems to...

    Chimney smoke at 5am & Neighbors

    Thanks Chopsaw!  I've been using Rutland fire starter squares and was thinking maybe I just needed to use one or two less, but I'm loving the idea of using the side burner.  Definitely going to try that this weekend!
