I sure dont know much about left and right handed cows and brisket, but I thought I would let you know that Fareway usually has brisket in the back just have to ask, but if they dont they can and will order full packers for you. but I bet they already will have some ordered for our comp. coming...

Hi all, being from Texas originally I have done many briskets before and they were Okay. I had always done them the same way, low and slow and never trimmed any fat. Today I decided to try the hot and fast method and things did not turn out very good. I read the procedures on hot brisket and...

First ever competition for us. Oversize Load BBQ I will be the fattest guy wearing a blue Texas Rangers jersey there. Ok probably ONLY guy wearing a Rangers jersey. Me and my wife and my son-in-law will be doing the pork loin for us.

Lakefest?? If so I will see you there.

Dont know if this helps or not but something else to think about is if you buy it on Amazon you can find the 22 priced around $350 a lot of the times and I occasionally see the 18 marked down to $275 but that is not that often so even at that price you can get the much bigger for only $75 more

Used Kingsford blue today and it seemed to be taking forever for the temp to raise, so rather than doing anything at first I went to post office after about 30min it still hadnt broke 200* but I went ahead and opened door threw in a chunk of cherry wood and as the chunk started to burn my temps...

I am up here in NW Iowa and the winds are much worse that they seemed to be when I lived in Council Bluffs just across the river from Nebraska, anyways I use water in my water pan and when my winds have been higher I just put a bit more for weight and I completely close the vent that is wind...

Since my earlier posting were a bit negative I felt that I should also post positive also. Moments ago i talked with John on the phone, and he is seeing our postings and trying to resolve problems. Since I am having issues with 2 totally different types of cookers he actually took time to help...

Howdy, I got my unit in January and had problems from day 1, originally I was led to believe that it was because of the outside temps and the fan sucking in sub zero air. Sometimes it works OK but I seem to have a lot better pit control not using it. I have not done the boiling water test with...

My experiences with the IQ110 seem quite a bit different from others and I am looking for help figuring it out. i have contacted Pitmaster in the past and they felt everything is normal but I have pretty bad fluctuations in temps. On my Big Steel Keg today I tried running it again. I set the...

You and I may have talked to the same person but I did not know how to put it politically correct except to say I had a difficult time understanding this gal.

Unfortunately I too have had less than an impressive experience dealing with Weber customer service this week. I was calling for a part so I had a spare and it is not listed on the Weber website, actually there was not any WSM parts listed on website so i called for more information. The long...

I am curious about this also, i have had similar results though I pulled mine off earlier. I have done a single butt numerous times with decent results but the first time I did more than one at the same time, my luck was not very good. With mine when it reached 195 I pulled them off because the...

I have actually bought from this seller before and the experience was ok, I got exactly what I was expecting however it took longer to ship than I expected but the wood was in perfect same size chunks.

Howdy all, I feel like I am getting used to how my 18 WSM cooks because I have now done pork loin,brisket, chicken ,ribs, and pork shoulders on mine, but yesterday I had an experience I wasnt accustomed to. Let me start with saying I have done several Boston butts in the past on other smokers I...

Mark that is a fair question and I think Russ was right in what he said especially the telling lies and having fun. But to go with all that, some of the main factors in my decision is that I consider the non-sanctioned as practice or like a backyard contest. Probably the main factor however is...

Thanks Russ and others for your comments. Russ you nailed it with this one contest for sure and that is the one that worries me. I am a KCBS certified judge and have judged several contests, but I have judged one place that has a "non-sanctioned" contest for the past few years and they...

Loosely based on KCBS rules, and did not pay KCBS sanctioning fees. Usually it is members of the organizing party or community members that are judges.

Whenever I do butts, i always do an injection usually of apple juice and a bit of apple cider vinegar. I also always leave the fat cap on. When i do butts the only trimming I usually do is to "ugly" parts such as if the butcher didnt cut it right and there are bone slivers or things that just...

Hi Chris, I ordered my 18.5 WSM in January of this year. I hope this helps.
