    No. 5 Sauce

    I've used Bigger Badder Beef Rub using Kevin Kruger's Chili Powder with excellent results. https://tvwbb.com/archive/index.php/t-6554.html https://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?24070-2-Chili-Powders-(from-Alton-Brown-Kevin-Kruger) I've bought the required chilis from a local hispanic grocery...

    3 rub brisket flat on high heat / foil

    I think I used a fairly even mix, maybe a little less of the Smoking Guns Hot, although I just started with the Prime Rib rub, put some of that on, then some of the Head, then some of the Hot. I would expect that equal parts would work fine. I hear alot of people use the Smoking Guns Hot for...

    3 rub brisket flat on high heat / foil

    *** key in this is finding a brisket flat with a good fat cap *** Alot of meat markets like to trim them too much. Sam's Club happened to have choice briskets, and I picked a thick flat that would fit on the mini that also had a good fat cap on it. High Heat (HH: 325-375) to 160 internal fat...

    3 rub brisket flat on high heat / foil

    I've done packers on the mini, but it's a tight fit. I use the small weber rib rack with mods so it fits vertical on a cooking grate, then drape the packer over the rib rack. See http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?35225-Smoking-a-packer-brisket-on-the-mini-wsm. If the cooking grate is positioned...

    3 rub brisket flat on high heat / foil

    Picked up a nice choice angus beef brisket flat with a nice fat cap from Sam's Club. Rubbed with Excalibur Prime Rib Rub, Head Country (brisket) Rub, and Smoking Guns Hot Rub. Put on the miniwsm with a few chunks of cherry and Kingsford blue using high heat (325-375) fat cap down. At 160...

    Two butts on the mini?

    I ended up going with plan B and took the the SJG and a few packs of Johnsonville Hot Links and Beddar with Cheddar sausages. Didn't get any pictures. This was for the Chiefs / Raiders game last sunday. Only went to tailgate, then drove back home :). I will try 2 butts one of these days ...

    Two butts on the mini?

    I would have started them Saturday evening. After more discussion with my wife, we are going to go with plan B, take the SJG and a few packs of Johnsonville Hot Links and Beddar with Cheddar sausages along with some pre-cooked cheesy potatoes. I may still do the two butts one of these days. I...

    Two butts on the mini?

    Thinking about smoking two butts on the mini Saturday night for tailgate party Sunday afternoon (gametime 3pm). The two butt combo packs at Sams have caught my eye (if they still have them), and it would be nice to have leftovers for next week. Not actually going into the game, just tailgating...

    Fitting ribs, how many?

    Weber's smallest rib rack will fit on the mini. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000WEPFOA/thevirtualweberb I haven't tried it yet (except a modded rib rack set vertical to smoke a packer brisket:). http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?35225-Smoking-a-packer-brisket-on-the-mini-wsm

    Smoking a packer brisket on the mini-wsm

    Took a Weber small rib rack and turned it on its side. Bent the last rib upright so it was perpendicular to the horizontal. Bent each end so it wasn't too tall. Lined it up perpendicular to the cooking grate, and had to cut a notch out in the singe connector bar that goes across the middle...

    I've been taking a few pics. Will post soon. Flat is foiled, wrapped with towels, and in the cooler. Re-rubbed the point and put it back on the smoker for burnt ends ...

    Smoking a packer brisket on the mini-wsm

    In order to fit a brisky on the mini, I took my lower cooking grate and the small Weber rib rack and modded them so the rib rack sits vertical on the lower cooking grate. Then drape the brisket over the rib rack, fat side down, so the point and opposite end of flat hang down on each side of the...

    Breaking in my mini wsm ...

    Thanks for your kind words. I smoked some BB ribs Friday eve around 230 for about 4 hours, spritzed several times with a mix of apple juice and apple cider vinegar. They were pretty good. After I had prepped the ribs, I pulled a 8.4 lb pork butt out, thinking I might smoke this at the same...
