Just checked weather.com for my area... looks like a clear night ahead with no rain but humidity is still 93% so thats pretty high to post back my results here when I`m done. I`ll post tomorrow. Wish me luck. Every time I do an overnighter, my WSM temp drops staggeringly low. I`m starting my...

I had to put my smoke on hold... my umbrella is not going to hold up in these conditions. I may give it another go tonight but right now, it sounds like the weather is going to be really bad... lots of rain. I usually don`t mind but I am trying to smoke some brisket and pork shoulder for...

Yeah, I`m using an umbrella. Didn`t start yet. Its pouring out there! Yikes. This is going to be tough but duty calls.

Hey Rick, I think an electric smoker is the way you would have to go for a high volume biz such as owning your own restaurant or even a busy catering place.

Here in NYC, we`re expecting steady rain for a good 24 hours... right in the middle of my pork shoulder smoke... argh... However, after this smoke out in the steady rain, I will better equipped to answer your questions. Stay tuned.

Hey Rick, I hear ya. I would think too that if one were to open a restaurant, you would go with an electric smoker...

blasphemy! I love dealing with the weather. Thats the challenge of BBQing.. Granted, if I`m smoking something for myself its not stressful but if there was someone paying me for results... I might be a little stressed.

I think the most important thing is a meat thermometer. I don`t think a mop will penetrate either so... I`m making one this weekend I think... at least thats the plan!

Thanks Eddie but I`m working with bbqlogo. They came up with something very close to what I had in mind. We`re just tweaking it at this point. I`ll post it when its done.

Hey Everyone. Thanks for the ideas. I checked out BBQlogos (thanks Brandon) and they are drafting up some ideas for me. I like the college idea, but time is of the essence. EB

Hey Everyone, Just an update. My first catering job was a smash hit. A party of 20 who enjoyed the pulled pork, ribs, mac and cheese and coleslaw. Unfortunately my sons 3rd b`day party was cancelled because my brother in law lost his mom on Saturday morning. We are going to have the party next...

Hey Everyone, My first catering BBQ was a smash hit over the weekend. Cooked for a party of 20. Pulled pork, baby back ribs, mac an cheese, coleslaw... I was tempted to go out and get some business cards but decided to wait until I can get myself a logo b4 doing so. Have any of you used a logo...

Nice! Of course, I did two shoulder yesterday and have no pix to prove it. I was so busy smoking, playing mr. mom and had a friend over that taking pix was not going to happen. I`ll try next time. Your job looks awesome and probably tastes even better. Keep it up.

Hey Brian, I used almost two bags of charwood. I used the Minion Method as well. I only use the MM method with charwood. I don`t care what anyone says, K has an odor to it that is atrocious w/ the MM. I started the smoke with two 10 lb. pork shoulders on Thursday at noon. I refueled in the...

As expected, 9 racks was not a problem. If I had 3 more, I still would have had room for them so glad that worked out. The pork shoulder looks amazing and smells wonderful. Letting them sit right now for about an hour, then I`ll tear them. Still have to make the sauce. This is hour 22 1/2 of...

I adjusted the number from 12 to 9 and replaced the 3 with brisket so I still may have to roll some. We`ll see and I`ll let you know. Thanks.

Is it possible to smoke 12 racks of baby backs in one smoke? I`m not worried about getting them to fit, I have racks a plenty. I was wondering if I`ll also need to fuel the WSM more being that I have more food on there. THanks.

I`m going to smoke two pork shoulders at the same time and then I`ll do the ribs on a separate smoke. Right now I`m waiting for a final head count so I won`t know for use until tomorrow what the numbers are. That`ll dictate what gets smoked with what. Stay tuned.

Hey Guys- Im excited and a little jittery thinking about this upcoming weekend. I`m smoking for two parties. One is a payed job and one is for my 3 year sons birthday. The payed job consists of smoking 9 racks of ribs and a large pork shoulder. For my sons b`day party, I`ll be smoking 3 racks...
