Amazon has 13" and 19" Eastman leather gloves. 13" is $14.95, 19" $17.95. I bought the 19" and like them a lot. My wife washes them in the washer, but it takes a couple days for them to air dry. Smokin' Jim in NC

"small family, tight budget" WSM for certain. It'll cook more than enough for several small families. It llooks amall until you start loading up the two racks, will surprise you how much you can cook. I also have a Weber kettle for chicken and steaks and a gasser doing nothing now. If I could...

Lew, Have you tried lump charcoal? This normally burns hotter than briquettes. Smokin' Jim in NC

I just took the top bolt out of one of the supports. I've been using it like this for about 3 months. Save the bolt in case you ever want to put it back. Smokin' Jim in NC

I wouldn't use it for smoking until it's dried at least 6 months. Don't worry about the bark, a lot of the apple and cherry chunks I've bought have bark. I haven't noticed any difference. I have some hickory from a tree that an ice storm took out early this year. It's been drying more than 6...

Sorry I credited it to the wrong person. I used a mixture of apple and wild cherry. Really great cornish hens. Thanks, Smokin' Jim in NC

I haven't done an allnighter, but I'm doing an "alldayer" now with a 5# Boston butt pork roast. I filled the ring 3/4 full with briquettes, topped that with a chimney full of lit lump. The temps stayed a fairly seady 225 for the first 5 hours. If I hadn't been removing the lid every two hours to...

I've ordered from them several times. Very pleased with both service and product. I also ordered from Coastal Enterprises here in North Carolina. Was surprised when my shipping charges from eastern NC was more than from Kingsmoke in Nebraska. My next order was from Kingsmoke. Smokin' Jim in NC

I've always smoked baby backs, until my local chain grocery had spares for .98 lb. These were Smithfield enhanced and fairly thick. I gambled and used the southern succor rub in spite of the enhancing. Came out perfect after 7 hours. Not too salty as I expected they might be. We eat the thinner...

I pour it around the culvert under the driveway. I hope it does kill the grass there, no more weedeater. If you live in the city, you probably don't have this option. Smokin' Jim in NC

Thanks Randy. I doubt I would have carried it to the oven if I had still been waiting the next morning. This was my first beef roast, been cooking mostly baby backs, spare ribs and chickens. As good as this was for slicing, I think I'll be safe pulling them as soon as they hit 170. Thanks...
