Ok so we are going for a second batch of ribs after the first were a little to tough. This time up'd the temp. Still don't know the exact grate temp but I was cooking at 250 on the lid last time but the thermo was right above the lit snake. This time I have gone for 350 lid temp (again it is...

Going to throw down some burgers and chicken tonight. The chicken wings will take 40min to 1 hour indirect so need to go on first. Probably at a temp around 350F My problem is will the coals be hot enough direct to cook the burgers or will I have to add extra coals?

Used my weber for the first time today. I had almost a full chimney distributed both sides. I threw on a couple wood chunks to get some smokey flavour into the chicken which worked well. My concern is a lot of the smoke appeared to be coming from the lid/base seal and thermometer rather than...
