    Getting WSM up to temp.

    I use Trader Joe's Briquettes when I smoke. I generally start with a full or nearly full chimney and get it REALLY going. I dump on top of what I have in my smoker (usually a pretty full ring) put on smoke wood and then let it sit for a few minutes - no body, nothing. It helps get the...

    UPDATE!! First Attempt At WINGS on WSM - tips, tricks, suggestions, rubs, sauces?

    Thanks Jennifer, you're the inspiration behind this cook! I also sauced at the very end for the first set, second set I sauced and left them on there for a few, and did notice the softer, yet still a bit crispy skin on the second. · I did make a smaller charcoal ring, but didn't use it for...

    Alright, so here it is. Holy Grail? Oh yes.... Crisp & Crunchy Skin..... Dried for 2 days (instead of 1 as originally planned - I coach baseball so things can get kinda' screwy during tournament season) Used 30% of a T.J's Briquettes bag, with a bit of left over Royal Oak lump. <span...

    Thanks for the tips! I definitely would have over rubbed them, and the cooling rack is a great idea! I've been delayed a day so I will post pictures later this evening.

    UPDATE!! First Attempt At WINGS on WSM - tips, tricks, suggestions, rubs, sauces?

    So reading through the site last weekend, Holy Grail chicken? Maybe! thread got me. I HAD to make these wings. I generally can only BBQ during the weekends so during the week I picked up a pack of Fresh Tyson "All Natural" (yeah right) Wings at Sam's Club. I usually try to get local foods...

    Lump Charcoal

    NE Ohio Sucks, I don't think there is a single place to buy quality lump. I've shipped in Wicked Good, but its so expensive to do so. If any fellow NE Ohio folks (I don't think there are any on here) know of a source for decent lump (aside from the standard Royal Oak) I would be much obliged.

    Performer Propane Tank.......

    I'm sure I could, I just thought I read somewhere you can modify these so you don't have to keep running to the fill station. Also, there was something about the safety of these tanks...

    Performer Propane Tank.......

    I picked up a Stainless Performer on Craigslist for a nice price, however I have no idea how to fill the propane tank that came with it. The way it's situated I can't directly connect the disposable tanks like the new Performers either. I've attached a few pictures - it has a quick connect...

    Stubbs Charcoal

    How do you guys think this stuff stacks up against Trader Joes? I've been using TJ's for two summers now. I've had full rings burn at 250-300 for over 36 hours. (Bottom vents closed with one cracked & top vent open with one whole plugged with a wine cork with a hole for temp probe)

    Post a picture of yourself! *****

    Thanks - We go out a few times a week usually 3-4 man tickets, thus I have a LOT of Walleye in the freezer. I use it as currency - amazing what some fillets will get you. Ever in NEO I'll fill up your cooler for you!

    Just showin' off my plates new paint job!

    We actually did a great deal of research on the size subject. Because of the 5 wheel design & shape, the WSM is nearly impossible to knock over when moving full or empty. It also keeps close to the original form factor of the WSM for storing when not in use. If one wheel gets stuck or falls...

    Just showin' off my plates new paint job!

    Actually, we are trying to come up with the right material for weight and cost effectiveness. The aircraft aluminum I used are about $600 each. But if you'd like, I can let you (and the board) know when we have it perfected.

    Just showin' off my plates new paint job!

    Honestly, its Aircraft Aluminum. I see your working on your own out of wood, I highly recommend making a Decagon and use 5 wheels. We did a lot of research into the design and number of wheels. It then occurred to us that we were in fact sitting on nearly an identical design - our office...

    Just thought I'd post a few pics of my plates with a their new black powder coat paint job. Wasn't sure if I should have gotten them done black or silver - glad I went with the black! However, since it was Power Coating, when I put the wheels back on I was over tightening on of the...
