Thanks for the top tips guys, just smoking another piece as I type. Luckily I have put my WSM in our pergola as it is chucking it down with rain, yet again. It's been the driest winter and spring here in the UK, looks like our summer is making up for that!

Thanks for your replies chaps, most useful. This forum doesn't appear to have a thanks button?

Yep just finding my feet. The first one I did without probe thermometer, it came out nicely done, but a bit dry. Second one I've I used my Maverick. It came not so dry, but bit under done. Stopped cooking when it's temperature hit 71'c (160f). Having another go, later this week. Never eaten so...

Our brisket was a bit tuff, will go into a chilli. Onward & upward to the next one. Learning curve. ;)

Think they're gonna do a 'Smoke Gateway', a WiFi link that'll add onto the Smoke to give you an app on your phone. I was going to get the Thermoworks Smoke, but would have to import to the UK, and it was silly money. Got a Maverick 733 instead, just monitoring me brisket now as I type :)

Bit late to the party, but I bought an iGrill 2. Whilst the device itself was quite good, and the app you use it with, what lets it down massively, is the poor range of the Bluetooth connection. If you have line of sight, its fine up to 30 feet. If you take your receiver (iPhone etc) inside your...

That product is available in the UK. I've used it and it seems fine, but I'm new to this smoking malarkey! Used some other stuff, Heat Beads, which seemed pretty similar. The Weber briquettes seem to last longer in a WSM than the suggested 3hrs, but I guess that's down to the nature of long &...

Good tip re the charcoal, I'll try that next time.

Hi All, just got a WSM 47cm (18.5"). :) First cook, only spread enough briquettes to cover the grate, and filled the bowl with cold water. Couldn't get my WSM up to temperature and had to add more fuel. Second cook, filled the grate to the rim, and put hot water in the bowl, and the temperature...
