    Help me use my WSM more!

    I'll 2nd the hanging kit over open coals, cleanup is a whole lot easier and I like how everything tastes thats been hung especially chicken and ribs. That and the lid hinge are my 2 favorite WSM accessories.

    WSM 18.5" water pan question

    I have a 14.5" heavy glazed clay plant saucer that fits right on the tabs for water bowl, it helps help the WSM recover quickly after opening the lid. It cost me $14 at Lowes, double wrap in HD foil and put another sheet on top that just fits over the edges, after a cook pull the top sheet and...

    Another Hunsaker Vortex firebasket user

    Thanks Greg I hate to sell the 18.5 because I've put casters on, replaced the water bowl with a clay saucer, CB SS door, UKBBQ lid hinge, Weber hanging kit with the PBC SS hooks and have a IQ110 for those days when I can't be around for the whole cook otherwise it's not needed. I like hanging...

    Greg from your pic's of the basket on the 18.5 it looks like the Vortex sits higher than the stock charcoal ring/grate? I ask because I've been hanging chicken halves and ribs in my 18.5, the chicken wouldn't be a problem but it looks like clearance for the ribs would be. I want more capacity...

    BBQ Temp Regulator

    I wait because when I dump my coals I'm usually at 150-165 grate temp, with all vents open in 20 to 30 minutes I'm up to cook temp, it takes the IQ longer to get there. That being said I usually have to wait at least an hour from dumping hot coals for the fire to clean up before putting the meat...

    Thinking about trying a butt...

    I don't like wrapping either but it's because I like a good bark and I don't like self braising the meat. Like you I'll wrap in foil when it's time to hold. The only thing I wrap is Brisket and that's in Butcher Paper. To the OP, Butts are really easy to cook, they are very forgiving when it...

    Water or no water?

    Replaced my water pan with a clay plant saucer, wrapped it in foil and put another piece just large enough to fit over the top so when cleaning I pull that sheet and replace it with a new one, makes cleanup easy. Another advantage is I have more clearance to load up the charcoal ring with more...

    BBQ Temp Regulator

    I have the IQ 110, it does what it supposed to do, maintain consistent temps, I don't start running mine until I'm up to temp then I shut down bottom vents and attach the hose to the manifold and plug it in. I only use mine when I'm not going to be home for the whole cook because I find it easy...
