Sounds like it went well. The brown flaking usually only happens to me when I use water. With a dry pan or ceramic briquettes, I haven't had it happen.

I wish Weber would do the 26er in any color besides black.

I've always wanted to try straight grilling ribs. Yours looked good. I'll have to test some out.

Great looking ribs. Judging by the color, they look like they got just the right amount of smoke.

Unfortunately no

Oh dang, it looks like they were popular. There are some websites that say it ships in 6-8 weeks but probably not worth it. The smoke and slate blue colors are nice as well.

That's a mighty fine looking kettle. I noticed it was $30 cheaper than the other exclusive colors as well. If I was going to get a MT 22, it would either be this one or the smoke color.

That's a great looking bird. Never cooked just a breast, I'll have to try it out.

The top grate was higher than the lower grate. If I would have used ceramic briquettes like I usually do, both grates might have been around the same. If you use water, the lower grate might be even cooler.

I actually just cooked 2 racks of spareribs on the WSM using both grates. I was too lazy to use a rib rack and just wanted to lay them flat. The temp difference was around 15 degrees for me most of the time. I used an empty water pan with foil. I imagine every cooker and cut of meat will be a...

Not opposed to it at all. I ended up cooking mine at 325 and it was juicy and skin was crispy. I'll be cooking my next one on the kettle with the SnS to compare flavor profiles. I assume they will be about the same.

Turkey breast looked good. I also feel bad for my WSM and break it out sometimes. I don't have a Smokefire but do most of my cooking on my kettle nowadays. Its hard to justify cooking for 2 on anything else sometimes.

I would also take a 26er at that price. I want one bad, just waiting on the right time.

Wings look great. Sometimes less is more and keeping it simple pays off.

Don't let it discourage you. I had quite a few mishaps before I started getting it right. Smoke on and have a good time.
