    Stufz Burger Maker

    Has anyone used one of these things? Click Me!! My juicy lucy technique, or lack thereof at this point, has been an utter failure. I can't get the cheese to stay in no matter how hard I try. It's effectively my kryptonite.

    1st cook on WSM...chicken questions

    If you butterfly the chicken, cooking time will be reduced. 1 hour is likely to be too long.

    Had trouble maintaining cooking temp? Running cold. Not sure why

    1) abandon the water. Keeping that water hot chews through a lot of charcoal. I just use rocks in my pan with foil on top, some use sand, others use nothing. 2) and I know some on here my shoot me, but for very long cooks I don't use K. Ever since they changed their briquettes I have found that...

    WSM with Stoker - no water in pan ??

    Agree with Wolgast. I used to be a "I only cook with water in the pan" hero, but eventually I didn't see the use. It just uses up charcoal spending all that heat getting the water up to temp. I never use water in eaither smoker anymore.

    Oiling a Steak

    I'm too lazy to oil the grades, so I just spritz steak with extra virgin olive oil.

    WSM BBQ Guru Controller question

    I find this odd. Was the damper on the fan mostly closed?

    Pimp my WSM 22.5

    Temp. control system is a no brainer in my mind. Only other thing that pops into memory would be ribolator?

    Superbowl Fattie

    Intended to make 2 fatties, but the bacon was so thick that it morphed 1 fattie. Thus I ended up combining...

    First Smoke

    My best tip I could have followed when I did my first butt is to honestly pay no attention to internal temp. estimate 1.5-2 hrs. per pound and check tenderness to determine if it's ready. Sometimes my butts stall at 180, but are done, some are done at 195. Just check tenderness.

    Super Bowl Smoke

    Got the pulled pork ready, and the fattie is waiting to be cooked right before game time. Go Pats.

    Briquette suggestion besides K

    Personally, I found that Royal Oak and Stubbs simply didn't burn long or hot enough for my liking. I had to continually refuel my Backwoods cooker on an overnight smoke. Ended up using 3 full bags of Stubbs, when I normally would have got away with using less than 1 bag of Wicked Good.

    Briquette suggestion besides K

    Wicked Good makes lump briquettes that are almost a billion times better than K. I use K for grilling, Wicked Good for smoking.
