As we all know, cleaning the WSM water pan of grease and gunk after a long smoke is always a hassle. I had previously searched for a disposable aluminum pan that would fit and not found anything suitable. Like others, I generally used a couple of sheets of heavy duty wide aluminum foil to line...

Ok, so I had some downtime while we were cooking for Christmas and played around in CorelDraw and made a logo. Yes, these suckers are that good! FireFish Recipe: 1 bag of Pepperidge Farm Goldfish (by bag, I mean one of the three bags that comes in the 4 pound box at Sam's Club). 1/3...

Ok, The Big Boss and one of the other Bosses asked me about smoking pulled pork for our entire office floor as a reward for the recent team effort everyone had made in a special project. Of course I said I would do it. So this is the story of that smoke. For those of you who ask "can you do 4...

Summer Sausage in the e-WSM (with lots of Q-view) Ok, This was a week of firsts in my BBQ kitchen this week... 1) First real smoke with the e-WSM after adding an Auber PID controller. 2) First time I've used an Eastman Outdoors kit for summer sausage. 3) First time I've used the grinder...

Well, since I came up with the idea for the e-WSM mod a while back, I have used it several times for smoking cured sausage and snack sticks. It works great, but.... (there is always a but). The electric element has an analog dial control. Just like using natural air flow and fiddling with...

I don't know the seller and just ran across the post in the GA Outdoor News (GON) forum, but there is a current style 18.5" WSM for $175 in Fayetteville, GA if anyone wants to rescue it. Seller stated he wanted to move it quickly...

Ok, I should have done this last weekend, but I threw my back out so it was a no-go. Getting old sucks.... This will be for the official maiden voyage of the e-WSM mod I posted the other day. Here is a link to the original e-WSM mod post...

I've been doing something different for lower temp smokes of sausages & snack sticks in my WSM. I've been using a 1,100 watt el-cheapo Walmart counter top heating element that sits on the fire ring in concert with a pellet tray. That little element would go up to 185 degrees so it was great...

Thermopen $69 sale Open box, demo and refurbished in many colors for $69. I snagged an orange one for myself. They are already sold out of some of the colors and it is only valid until stock on hand is gone. But it's hard to beat $69.

Ok, Somebody is probably going to tell me this is a bad idea, but is there any reason not to try and wash a flower pot base I've been using in the WSM? The foil apparently leaked and it's pretty greasy on the top. Thought about hitting it with some Dawn and then putting it in the dishwasher...

Free? Project? Somebody with a little spare time may want to look into rescuing this Weber. Only listed a a "three burner gas grill" but if you are in the Atlanta area, might be worth the trouble (actually it's in Roswell). http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/hsh/2725241105.html

Well, I've heard about it but never had it happen before. Can't say that now though. Went to cook some brats on the Summit 670 tonight and I knew the LP tank was getting low, so I had a full one on standby. Sure enough, about 5 minutes into heating the grill, poof, it goes out. No big thing...

Well, it's not a $200 find like some get, but on the other hand it's not a fixer upper either. Snagged a 2008 model with no issues for $1,000 Photo is a little off from the shadows of the deck support. This sucker looks 100% new and has been stored under a deck while covered.

I looked at the warranty page on Weber's website and did not see anything about 1st owner only, just the length of time items are covered. I've been looking to upgrade from my Holland Grill Classic to a Summit S-670 for a while and may have found a good deal on a 2008 model the original owner...

I have a question about smoke wood. I have been using cherry that I buy in chunks from a local source when I use cherry. Some time back I had a friend who cut down a wild cherry tree and gave me all the logs from it which I split and set up to dry. It's been over a year and it's about as dry...

Ok, I've read it's possible to pack 6 shoulders in the regular WSM. I have a retirement at work later this week and we really need more than 4 shoulders so I want to try and pack in those extra two. Any special tips I need to know about? Will be using an older model 18.5" WSM with the...

Anything special I need to know about cooking two 10lb half hams at once in a 18" WSM? I was talked into bringing two hams for a retirement luncheon at work on Friday, but have never done two "ready to cook" half hams at the same time on the upper and lower grate before. I will be using a...

Ok, first let me say more often than not, I'm only using the WSM to cook for myself, the wife and occasionally the daughters boyfriend (daughter is not overly fond of anything with rub or sauce on it - go figure. But hey, that's more for me!!!). That being said 90% of the time I don't put...

Well, I finally got around to trying the receipe from the site's main page for smoked meat loaf. The meat is a basic meat loaf and I had never tried the mix of sweet brown sugar and nutmeg in a glaze on a meat loaf before. Let me say this - it's a wonderful hit at my house. Smoked it for...

Ok, I've been so busy with christmas stuff I have not smoked anything over a week (heaven forbid!!!). So the wife came back from the store today all beaming with glee at her find. A nice "crown" rack of bone in pork standing rib roast. It's already cut, shapped and tied into the round crown...
