Pretty much like all the other groups here. I can't remember the last time I saw anything in the Oregon group posted. Even the smoker specific groups, like WSM, GOSM, Chargriller etc very rarely get posts and when they do they often go unanswered.
 
Hi Danny, just had our first snowfall in the area and a hard frost this morning but I still haven't put the Webber into hibernation. Been very busy (by my standards [emoji]128514[/emoji]) helping my son as he's just gone self employed and has bought a 40 year old Unimog, a twin drum timber winch and a wood chipper that all need lots of tlc ! He's dropped off a pile of apple and cherry wood that I'll let season and then put through the chipper, removing the bark first will be a pain though.
Managed to do some chicken schwarma last week on the webber with some home made pitta breads done in the pizza oven and baked a loaf once the oven had cooled down a shade.

Hasn't anyone told you that Webers do not hibernate. In fact they get very lonely over the winter when a lot of people ignore them. At least go and see it at Christmas. It would be very happy if you were entrust it with your Christmas turkey this year...

It's dried blood only, you can not buy blood unless you slaughter the pigs yourself.

Lol Danny - It is that time of the year I think. We will have to rattle some cages to get more people out smoking. What are you going to be smoking between now and Christmas?

Steve - this post is getting lost in here and certainly deserves more prominence. How about putting it in its own thread.

Hello Wade.  You are right buddy.  The British weather is settling in.  I wanted to smoke a turkey for Christmas but you can't take that chance this time of year.  We will have 14 for Christmas.  You can't serve dinner without turkey.  I will try to smoke something that doesn't take so long.  Couple of ribeyes come to mind.  Getting hungry.  Gotta look through the fridge and drag out the Weber.  Speak soon.  Keep Smokin.

Good to hear from ya Lee.  It's that time of year.  If ANYONE has a post please do so.  I was gonna smoke a turkey.  I had thought just the 2 of us.   The Missus then told me the whole family was coming so I thought I could not risk the weather.  Weather permitting I WILL smoke a chicken or 2 to add to the meal.  I will post; weather permitting.  Keep Smokin!
