This is how I do it too. Even without soaking, the corn gets steamed inside the husk. If I'm feeling brave with my fingers, I pull the huck back after 15-20 minutes and let the corn char a little.

IMO there are few things better than the smell of roasting chiles. I need to get in to my local market and see if they have them in stock yet.

That looks really, really good. Those grilled purple onions are so dang good on burgers. They are almost a mandatory thing for me.

I think you are just fine. The "buildup" from cooking is something I consider part of a well-seasoned piece of equipment. If it gets to be too much (flaking like you had), I just scrape it off with a plastic putty knife.

IMO it's hard to beat a good tri-tip smoked and seared. That looks so good.

I had never seen a Tesla truck in person until yesterday, then saw 2 in different areas of the city. I thought the pictures of them looked bad.........

I did look, and they did not have it unfortunately. I did add it to my "watch list".

Just to round out the dislike for Kirkland French Roast.... I finally finished my one and only bag. Even if it's the only thing on the shelf I won't buy it again. My usual Costco doesn't stock the House Blend, so I'm making a special trip to the big Costco in town to get House Blend x2, along...

Ribs look terrific! I haven't seen a Hamm's beer for a looooooong time. We used to get it here in Utah, but I can't remember when I saw it last here. I used to get cases of it for the weekends with friends when I lived in the Indianapolis area.

Boy howdy, that turned out really nice.

Wally, my tip is, don't chase the perfect cooking temp on the WSM. Let the WSM work for you, not against you. Some of my best cooks are when I literally forget I have things cooking, and let them just 'do their thing'.

I pulled 2 whole chickens out of the freezer, which will both get brined and go on the WSM. I'm thinking maybe a tri-tip for the Performer would be a good thing.

They do, but it gets picked up almost immediately, so you generally have to be there right when it's put out. I've seen it in the cooler a couple of times and passed by, then thought better of it and walked back to get it. Nope. All gone.

Addict away, and please post pictures every time. It just looks so dang good.

For that price, I would buy either one. Maybe both?
