It's pretty easy to do this on your own. Kitchen shears will make quick work of this. Just keep everything except the spine. Use the shears to cut down both sides of the spine (you'll be cutting through bones, so use care), and then cut through the center of the breasts. Then you have the...
Nice job! I'll agree with the comment that 195 is a high temp for chicken.
My personal preference is 160-165, but of course, if you've tried both and like the hotter temp, then enjoy! :)
It definitely looks good!
If your probe is in between the two shoulders, the meat could be absorbing some heat, giving you a false reading.
I would make sure that there's decent space between the two pieces of meat if you want to ensure a good reading.
Better yet, I would recommend a test run with no meat for the...
I really doubt that you have rust going on. I have a Napolean Apollo, which is basically the exact same smoker as a WSM, and I've noticed this as well. I think that it's just the grease and seasoning on the sides.
Hose it out, take a brush and soap, and you should be able to clean it out...
Just curious - when did you order, and when do you expect it?
I ordered mine on Thursday the 20th. They said shipping sometime next week, and then a week to get to me.
I don't think that they are wrong. Most of my smokes involve water, but not a lot of water. Certainly not a full pan.
As I said above, it's much easier to add water to lower temp than it is to remove water to raise temp.
So I start with no water at all. Then if I start to creep up to 250...
Great, thanks for sharing this.
For me personally, it's a lot easier to deal with temps being too high and then adding water than it is to deal with low temps and have to get rid of water.
I remember once I filled the water pan completely, and it was sucking up all my heat. I couldn't get up...
I'm doing spare ribs for the first time tomorrow.
I like fall off the bone, so I'm thinking about a 3-3 method at 225. Good method?
Should I trim the skirt and tips, or just leave them on?
If I do not trim them off, will the extra thickness of the skirt really effect cooking time?
If I do...
I recently wrote a review of the Napoleon Apollo here...

Did babybacks tonight, and here's how it went....
