Dang you people! I've been using the #1 rub & really like it. I'm using it on 2 butts for an overnighter tonight. After reading all of your comments about the #2, now I HAVE to order some of it too. I'm blaming you when the box arrives & my wife asks me why I need more BBQ stuff.

You could try tightening & then spraying on a little WD40 to lubricate it enough to turn.

I bet they turn out fine. Be sure to let us know the results. Who knows, maybe this will be your best cook yet & you'll be trying to recreate the temporary high temps again in the future.

It sounds like things are coming along nicely. I wish I could cook some butts this weekend instead of working. When are you planning on eating the pulled pork?

The past 2 years, Home Depot has sometimes had big sales on their 2-24 lb packs. The sales are usually around 3 day holiday weekends during grilling season. I bought a bunch at ~$7.99 per 2 pack last year.

I agree with Paul G's suggestion of making ribs. I did the BRITU recipe on TVWB for my first cook. My ribs have improved a lot since then, but they were still better than any we'd had at a restaurant.

That sounds great Charles. You're making me hungry. I'd be cooking something myself if I didn't have to work this weekend.

I like mixing 1/2 Sweet Baby Ray's & 1/2 Hot Bone Suckin' Sauce. My family loves it. Someone here on TVWB originally told me about this. I get the Bone Suckin' Sauce at Cracker Barrel.

Louie, I've seen those disposable grates at Walmart & thought they would work great for meatloaf. BTW, it looks like one of the meatballs was trying to escape.

I'm pretty sure that the ET-73 only updates when there's a temperature change. Mine has stayed at one temp for at least 15 minutes, only to update later when the temperature changed.

If you want to order another smoker probe, you can call Maverick at 1-800-526-0954.

Great picture! I keep my WSM outside all winter too. I do put a large plastic garbage bag on the cooker before adding the cover to keep the moisture out.

They both have their good points. I like Costco's ribs better. Sams' Club has bone-in butts (which I like) instead of the boneless butts at Costco. My local Costco doesn't have brisket & Sam's has choice grade flats & packers. I have memberships to both.

I think I'll do 2 butts & some ABTs.

Maverick will happily sell you the probes if you call (800)526-0954. The regular probes for the ET-73 are $12 each & the longer (6 foot) probes are $17 each or $27.75 for two. Those prices include shipping in the United States. I just ordered 2 of the longer probes. Note: they don't currently...
