I agree, Bryan...Going to add some now! Also, I think it is about time to light my chimney coals!

I just made this Rub. It is a lot lighter than most of the rubs I have used. Is this normal?

Don, thank you for your help. I went to HD and that saucer is already foiled and ready to go! Getting ready to make my rub now!

Thanks, Erik. Water pan foiled from my last cook/cleanup, so I will do that! Getting ready to make my rub now. This is my first overnight cook....can you all tell I am a little excited? Rich, come on down! You are exactly right, eating 3-4 ish! I like my quest to have a few beverages, the I...

I have foiled it and put it in the place of the water pan. Is that it? With my vents at about 80%, I can expect to hold a temp of 225-250 through the night???? Getting ready to get rubbing now, Let me know what you all think. Thanks!

OK, I must have a problem, I just called my parents and told them to go pick me up 200# at thier local HD!

Thank you all for your help! It was Fantastic!

Don: Thanks for the info. I just don't see how that keeps the heat level... I guess I am just chicken...but everyone says it works! Guess I could try it. I really want to sleep tonight!

I am going to start my butts tonight on the WSM. I am going to use the minion method to start the coals and monitor for about an hour before turning in for the night. Yes, I will be having adult beverages tonight as well, so I probably will not be getting up in the middle of the night to check...

I was surprised too. I thought he would say no. It will still take some time to do the rest of the trimming. I also saw that there were on sale for $1.99 at my local Kroger grocery. They will usually do anything you ask them too. I may stop by there this afternoon and give it a try!

I have never tied my butts up. Is that common?

Picked up spare ribs for $1.97 at my local Sam's Wholesale. The butcher even did part of the trimming for me for the St, Louis Style. I still have to remove the skirt and the membrane. Thought that was a good deal. I have never had spare ribs. Hope they are as good as the loin backs I have...

I agree with the phrase, you get what you pay for, but at the same time, the whole point of smoking "low and slow" is to take a lesser cut of meat and making it fabulous. That is what I like to do. Besides, a little fat in a butt goes a long way in the smoking process.... Now, I...

Wow, so you are ending up paying $120-$160 for 3 butts....I'll stick with my 99cent per lb butts I get at my grocer. I know they are good. I will save my money for a beef tenderloin for Christmas! Hope you enjoy. I look forward to reading your post once they are done!

Those people in NY will not know the difference..(No offense to my nY friends!) Reminds me of the Pace Picante commercial!

I agree...buy the whole spare. It is not that much trouble to trim and you say 1/2 the price! Plus those other cuts can be used for so many other things. I love to take leftover smoked meat and add to my soups in the winter. Makes them much better!

Is there a preference for either clay or water when doing an overnight smoke? Would the clay overheat and let the temp get too hot during the night?

I am so glad you posted this. I wanted to BGE and could not justify the price. You also pointed out several other things that would irritate me..Capacity and no easy of adding fuel. I am now even happier with my WSM. Also, it goes without saying that the people on this site make the WSM a...

I had some tool approach me and another lady when I lived in an apartment complex in Nashville. Really pushing chicken. Wanted to come into one of our kitchens and microwave a piece of chicken to see how moist it cooked up in the microwave. That was enough to turn me off right there.

Picked up 14 bags on a road trip through TN, cleared out 2 stores....well I left 4 bags in Sevierville, TN at the HD cause they would not fit in my car! Doing my first smoke with it this weekend too, Can't wait!
