    Hand blender, stick blender, immersion blender? *****

    We have the one Doug posted. I really like it. The chopper attachment is like a mini food processor.

    I had a WSM for 14 Hours

    David - You could search the site for the experiences of others - sometimes damage can occur. Usually it's not an issue. Good news is that Weber almost always will take care of you. If there is an issue with a part or parts give customer support a call. They usually just ship out a replacement...

    turkey on a 18.5 kettle?

    I'm not totally certain re the fit. However, on Amazon the 22 1/2 is only 20 bucks more.

    My "mock-strami"

    Just to clarify: I did soak them, just not enough. I got started a later than I wanted.

    My "mock-strami"

    I just read Jim's post on his mock pastrami and saw Kevin's suggestion re testing for saltiness. Like I said, I'll start earlier next time and try that. Good idea.

    My "mock-strami"

    So here's my mock-strami. I did 2 yesterday. They went into the fridge overnight. I just had to check at least one out this morning. We're doing sandwiches tomorrow night. As others have mentioned it's a bit salty, so I'll try to remember to start early next time. But, I wonder just how...

    Pork Blade Steaks

    I saw a package on sale at Sam's, so I thought as long as I was going to fire up the WSM for "mockstrami" this weekend, I'd give 'em a go. Here they are sprinkled with rub and soon to go on: Here they are done: They went about 2 1/2 hours or so then...

    Stolen WSM

    Oh yes. It happened to me. See here. We also had a discussion regarding securing your WSM. I rigged up a cable to secure mine, although I don't feel the need in our current location.

    Your opinon, please, on my proposed exhaust system...

    You've looked here? Enclosure page I was always impressed with this little "smokehouse" Enclosure Getting to it would still be a challenge in deep snow. If you could set it up just outside a door, maybe it would work out.

    High Temp Brisket

    I was wondering about foiling technique. Does it matter how tightly one wraps the foil? I wrapped mine tightly, fully against the meat. Rich mentioned that he puts his in a foil pan (I assume he then covers that tightly with foil) Do you think it makes a difference as long as the foil is sealed?

    High Temp Brisket

    Well we've sparked another great discussion, haven't we? Just to clarify: my result was really good. There were 30 or more folks at the party and most of them sought me out to praise my efforts. Yes some of that was surely politeness but still I've done of enough of this to know that my...

    High Temp Brisket

    I appreciate what you're saying. Makes sense. If that's the case - and I'm asking this to expand and continue the discussion - why would we go to the trouble of doing the past and rub as I did? Certainly Kevin gets something out of it. He doesn't seem like the type to go to the trouble for no...

    High Temp Brisket

    It really wasn't a problem with the smoke flavor - that was good. It was the seasoning. Kevin's recipe was outstanding - the flavor just didn't end up on the plate.

    High Temp Brisket

    OK the smoking and the event (my parents 50th anniversary) are over. Mom requested the brisket and a turkey breast. The turkey I did in advance and we served cold. The cook went well. No problems with temperature or getting done in time. The brisket was just under 10lbs. I started at noon and...
