How do I replace the knob on my WSM door? It is a knob not a latch. TY

Thank you. Most helpful

I am preparing two pork butts and wanted an opinion if I should inject them or not. If I do, any recommendations would be helpful. I am thinking some rub with some apple juice.

Do you suggest wrapping the smoked bird in foil after it is cooked? I am concerned about rubbery skin.

maybe two is enough, especially with the ribs. Always leave them wanting more.... Thanks

Great suggestions everyone. Love the idea of the slider buns especially since there will be more women at this party. I'm thinking four 8 lb butts should do it with plenty of leftovers. Question? How much more cooking time should I anticipate when adding two additional butts?

Perfect. Thanks Chris.

I am hosting a party of 25 people. 11 are men and 14 are women. I am planning on smoking at least two butts and some racks of ribs. I am not sure how many butts I should smoke. Two for sure. We will have other fixins too. Any thoughts on how much a 15 lb butt will feed? Thank you!

Between 325 to 350.

As long as you properly cleaned it with soap and hot water; you are probably okay. Just make sure you keep the bird submurged with plently of ice.

My bird is bigger than the reciepe and was hoping for a little advice. I know its all about the temperature, but still trying to gauge the timing of everything else. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Thanks. Do you recommend adding any herb butter under the skin?

I'm planning on an Apple Brined Turkey this year. Has anyone tried a good rub? I see the creole rub, but not sure if there is anything better. Thanks. BR

Thank you. This is what I was thinking as well.

I make my own rub and use it always. The rub usually compliments the flavor of the meat. In my opinion, sauce hides the flavor, but this is a personal preference. How much is too much? After a few smokes under your belt, you'll know.
