So I got a suggestion on here to turn my 22 WSM barrel upside down to stop the rain from coming into the chamber, and what do you know it works very well. And it looks like it moves the bottom rack up a bit higher which I also like. But it looks like I am going to need to add some bolts at the...

I went to a WSM because I wanted more capacity than my 26.5 kettle would give me. When I cook I want to cook a lot and the capacity of the 22.5 WSM was perfect. Pretty much get the fire going, and just keep adding food all day. Temperature holds just like the kettle. Its tough just like the...

Been a member here for years... I have had several 22 charcoal grills, smokey Joe, Jumbo Joe, 26.5 Kettle mini smoker and even a jumbo Joe smoker, and nothing is as easy to cook on as my 22 WSM. I generally start a fire on my 26.5 kettle on Saturday and some 20 sausages, 20 chicken breasts, a...

I am in Richmond VA, and can't find whole packers, only flats and corned beef. Its been really hard to find a regular Brisket as of late, so I figure may as well buy close to the best Brisket I can. Where can I order one, either online or in Richmond, VA. Thanks, J

Finally broke my Christmas present in... I can't get over how much space it is over the 22.5. I can put a full 3 full slabs of ribs on this without issue. No leaks, and it holds a full caterer's pan full of food. Managing the food is easier, maintaining temps is the same, and I am just...

So i was looking for the 26" OTG, they don't make that anymore. I was miffed initially because the 26" OTG was only $299 (and I felt that was the best deal out there in Weber Kettles excpet for the 18" Jumbo Joe on sale for $30 last year). But the wife got me the Premium 26 for Christmas and I...

Seems as if these have disappeared online, anyone know where I can buy one? Are they still making them? Whats the story?

I went to Costco today to pick up a brisket flat to test out my Maverik-733. Looked at the price and it was 6.79 a pound!!! That's rib roast territory. And I remember just last year paying around 3.00 a pound for a flat. What's the deal? Why is that piece of meat so expensive?? Didn't...

hmmm... Something is wrong with this picture.... That's Better!!! Salad was made up of... Spinach Greens Apple pieces Tomatos Second shot is with smoked chicken from this weekends cook Balsamic Vinegar EEOV Salt/Pepper and a BBQ Sauce Drizzle... Awesomeness

Modded my Jumbo Joe into a smoker by using some galvanized flashing for the chamber. This is my first overnight cook (after several burn-ins and one quick cook). I was in for about 15 hours of cooking, and maybe 1 - 2 hours of real work. If you can call cooking work. Any rate on with the...

I sat on posting this for a few weeks because I didn't want to get into a debate about using Galvanized Metal in a smoker. This mod uses galvanized metal, and either you are afraid of it or not. If you are afraid of it stop reading now, and please no lectures on galvanizing smokers. I think I...

I keep hearing that the SJG can't cook all that well. I used the SJG the other day and was able to get and keep a 400 degree fire for an hour. I used some old lump, and built my standard indirect fire. I built the fire so that it was in between both air intakes. Fire showed no signs of...

I LOVE using my grill, but I need some recipes that are low calorie yet high in flavor/satisfaction. Anyone have any suggestions. Thanks, Jay

Gang, I really only come to this portable Grill forum to see the Mini MODS. Do you think this little cooker has enough momentum for its own little forum? I suspect Weber might not like it because it is such a perfect little cooker. Chris what say you?

Ok, what are you guys using instead of brisket? I thinking chuck roast. Did one today, came out a bit tough, but I rushed it, so I know it can cook and rest longer than it did this time. Thoughts? j

I should have taken some pictures but I am blown away by how resilient these grills are. I picked up a OTG for $10. I scraped off the rust where I could, painted the ash bucket and the bottom wire rack with black high heat paint. And bought a new OTS grate (I don't like the flip up grate, I...

I like this question because, considering you can cook anything on the kettles and there are so many kettles, it can have so many interesting answers. Also add any accessories like a rotisserie or a smokenator if you think it will make you the grill master. Has to be retail, no CL specials. I...

I know, I know, anything on the grill/smoker. But seriously if you could only do one meal for a lot of people minimum 8 up to 20 people on the grill what would it be? I think a pork butt, baked beans and slaw are about the perfect meal. Inexpensive, easy, and everyone will think you are...

I have done over night smokes of pork but, and long brisket smokes, ribs, and even chicken on my OTS. As for capacity, I am generally smoking 3 racks or ribs at a time, or two pork buts at a time or one big brisket at a time. As for feeding people, the most people I have feed at once is...

Did my second high heat brisket. This one came out like the first, but it could have used more seasoning. The meat was tasty and tender, but I keep thinking there should be more juice in the meat. However all of the pictures of brisket that I have seen look like mine. I think next time I am...
