I have an 18.5" WSM with an Auber ATM. I've been making a lot of BBQ lately, and none of it is really impressing me all that much. Following all my same recipes, but it seems like nothing is coming out REALLY great. I've made two sets of spare ribs, followed 3-2-1 to a T at 250F, and the ribs...

Is that because it doesn't do anything or it makes it taste different?

This is good timing, I plan on doing this tomorrow on my 18.5". Glad to hear it's possible to get good results, I hope to share my own tomorrow. ;)

I've got the rub on tonight, tomorrow I'm going to smoke them. They're pretty lean, should I put the fattiest side down and throw a bacon weave on top? Anyone else want to suggest a temp to cook these at and a temperature to pull them at for thin slicing? I plan to wrap them at 160. I'm...

Very cool, Missoula is a great city, love to visit when I can. I'm from Havre and would love to find some people around here that not just use a WSM, but even just smoke. I don't know anybody that does but my brother and he uses a Traeger (so that doesn't count).

I've read that you don't need to, I've read you have to burn it hot, then cook fatty meat on it first. I'm confused on what the heck to do. I planned on putting a bunch of charcoal in it tonight and letting it get as hot as I can get it, then I planned on testing how it holds 225 overnight the...

So my mom has a few brisket flats that she got buying a beef a year ago that she has no idea what to do with. I told her I could smoke them, slice 'em thin, and then freeze them in vacuum bags and then use them as sandwich meat when we go camping. She thought that was a great idea. Now my...

Hello everyone! My name is Chris, 33 years old, and I live in north central Montana. Not a big smoking community where I live, so I do most of my learning online. This website has been incredible while doing research. I started smoking about five years ago with a Char-Broil grill and a smoke...
