    Chicken Breast?

    I had a great Easter Chicken Smoke (high temp) and explained to my wife how these pieces (thighs and legs) work so well due to the type of meat that they are. We are doing chicken for the family again this weekend and have been requested to add chicken breast to the mix. I have told her that...

    Introduction & Emergency Turkey Help!!!

    I look forward to hearing about your results. Sorry I couldn't post back we were on the road. I just thought that the way the website describes smoking turkey is easy and solid. The reasoning for higher temps for me was that the turkey doesn't need to be broken down low and slow. I was...

    Weber Wok Sauce

    My wife got a Weber Wok for me as a present (for the charcoal). I have been wanting to do some dishes such as pepper steak, thai chicken, etc. I have had trouble finding solid base sauces and or recipes that would be good for these dishes. Is there anything in the new book that could help or...

    Website / Book

    Your website used to be comprehensive in terms of the entire 5 Step Method. I tried to go back to the website before posting the topic and noticed that it is totally redone. It only has Step 1 listed as an option to view. Will the other steps be added online or is the main website a teaser...

    Does 22" come with a cover?

    Good to know. Also important to look at in terms of the entire price. Ususally $30-$50 extra. The fact that it is included makes it understandable how they priced the new units.
