I want to thank everyone that made a donation. Every little bit helps. Best, Chris

I don't believe that's repairable. My video offers a tip on inserting a new one: Or maybe just cut a slot instead: https://www.virtualweberbullet.com/cutting-probe-thermometer-slot/

I would imagine there are a few Bud's Meats around the good ol' US of A. Bud is a good name!

Modelo Negra. A local beer called Barrel Brothers Dark Sarcasm. Alagash White. Fat Tire. Miller Genuine Draft. I don't know much about beer except that I know what I like when I taste it.

A grand total of $950. If you want to chip-in by buying me a beer, here's the link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=A5MEMBH9YKAD6 Thanks, Chris

Folks, please refrain from using modified political slogans in this thread. Thank you.

More of a Central Valley chain, none here in the North Bay.

I picked up two nice USDA Prime brisket points at H-E-B in Plano TX when I was recently down there. You never see points in supermarkets here in CA, at least I haven't. But those are for another day, I'm on the hunt for a smaller whole packer for an in-the-oven project.

Both are hard to beat when properly smoked by someone who knows what they're doing. But my vote goes to the point!

Yesterday I went to both Costco and Smart & Final looking for USDA Choice briskets of reasonable size and couldn't fine anything less than 20 pounds, some as big as 25 pounds. Where did all the smaller cows go? 😳🐄

This was a very special memory and a pinnacle moment of my journey to become a Master Certified BBQ Judge. Love you Donna! ❤️ https://tvwbb.com/threads/join-me-at-dana-point-state-bbq-championship-dana-point-ca-october-4.53871/

Congratulations to my friend Donna Fong of Butcher's Daughter BBQ for her election to the Kansas City Barbecue Society Board of Directors. I can't think of a better person to serve in this position, and great to have some West Coast representation on the BOD. Congrats Donna!

Security certificate had expired. I thought I'd taken care of it weeks ago and did, but apparently failed to install it. Only took a second to install it, but it took about 90 minutes for me to get notified that the site was down.

Not surprising. Even though the human tragedy is similar between LA and Paradise, when the second largest city in America burns, it's going to generate more media attention. That's just the nature of news and human attention to things. Few ever heard of Paradise or have a connection to it, but...

2020 Weber SmokeFire vs. Industry Standards This is an interesting single-page brochure in which Weber describes what they consider "industry standards" when it comes to pellet grills and comparing those to the "SmokeFire Difference" when it comes to the features, benefits and "fun facts" of...

No politics, please, when discussing the topic of California wildfires. As some of you know, in 2023 I moved back to my childhood hometown of Santa Rosa, CA after being away for 40 years, to be closer to my Dad and siblings. In 2017, this community of about 175,000 people experienced the Tubbs...

You posted this in the WSM subforum so I assume you’re cooking on a WSM. More likely the water entering the cooker is running down the lid and entering between the lid and middle section. A very very light rain is usually no problem, just make sure you’ve got enough hot charcoal in the cooker...

27 years of cooking on the 18” WSM and I’ve never seen a single pork butt so large that it won’t fit on the top grate. As others have suggested, perhaps a pork shoulder (unseparated butt+picnic)?

22” WSM is notorious for gaps between middle and bottom sections. Try gently bending back into shape as suggested by Colin. If that doesn’t work, you’ll need to fill the gaps. Weber warranty doesn’t extend to you as second owner, so a replacement part should not be expected and you may just get...

I don’t recall anyone smoking cream cheese all those years ago when I wrote that article. Occasionally there are new ideas!
