    What exactly is meant by "vending?"

    Vending is selling. Selling is vending. Some contests allow competitors to sell to help offset the costs of competing.

    Ribs- How do you cook them?

    I cook mine 5-6 hrs with just a rub and an occasional spray of apple juice and apple cider vinegar. I put a glaze of thinned apple jelly on each slab and let that set for about 20 minutes.

    New Kingsford Sucks!

    Exactly what I did yesterday. HD had original kingsford 2-20lb bags for less than 8 bucks. I bought 10 bags. I will probably go back this weekend and get some more. Hopefully it will still be there. Everyone on all the forums I visit have had nothing but bad things to say about the new stuff.

    Deal on WSM?

    Just in my local Ace Hareware today where I'd bought 1 of the 2 WSM's they had on the floor about a month or so ago. The other 1 is still there. $199.00 and comes with the cover. Don't know how much it would cost to ship.
