My cook didn't turn out that bad. 1st time using lump, 1st overnight cook, 1st time doing a chuck roast. Chuck was done at 8:30!!! We ate at 4:30 doh! I didn't want to do the ribs on the smoker and smoke everyone out of the back yard so I did them on the Ranch Kettle. It was the first time that...

Well one of my Roasts is done already. And were not eating til 4pm and its 8am, what do I do? How do you reheat? But not dry out?

Im doing an overnight Q of a 7lb pork butt and a 7.5lb Chuck Roast. Is the temp guidelines the same for the chuck as it is for the pork. ei 1-1.5hrs per pound? What about pull temps for the chuck? I used 195-200 (poking obviously) for pork.

Im doing a 7lb pork butt and a 7.5lb chuck roast for pulled pork and pulled beef. Also doing 3 racks of baby backs cause grandpa is hungry for ribs. This will also be my first overnight smoke.

Looks like someone got an email from Weber Looks mighty tasty.

I saw recently on here, and cant find again, a way to do chicken (thighs legs etc. From what I remember, it was "X" minutes direct, and then I think 30 minutes in-direct. Does this sound ok or ring a bell for anyone?

I have a 22" One Touch Silver that I put the ash pan from a Gold on. For what its worth, I wish I had a performer. They do make a table for kettles, but I think the performer would be much better.... for me.

As I stated earlier about the wheel situation, Weber did come through. Although they only sent me one, when they said they were going to send two. So I called Weber back and explained what happen, the lady on the phone seemed... well not very pleasent. When I told her that it was for a Ranch...

Very Nice! As soon as it warms up this is probably what Im going to do. Nice Job!!

I had to google it to see what it was. Looks like what a performer is today. Pretty neat! Please post some pics of it when you get a chance. Here a link to Webers site with some info. Click Me

I used the paper towel once, but mostly used newspaper. I got sick of the mess from the burnt newspaper. Now I use the side burner of my gasser. I works great, and in the 4 years that Ive had it, this is the only thing Ive used it for.

With my first cook, I my probe on the grate read higher then the lid did. The was for the whole cook. At a few points they were about the same, but 99% of the time the grate temp was higher. I wasnt too concerned as I use a Maverick digital thermometer.

You know Jim, You always seem to make me hungry and want to fire up the grill after Im already stuffed from my meal.

I dont shut mine off. Although I really should. Obviously, if I were to smell gas when I open the lid, I wouldnt start it. I havenet noticed any leaking.

Hmmm, judging by the way the wood smells, I dont think Id want that taste in my food

Hey everyone, Thanks for the comments. Im glad that I could help people with the pictures. Im more then willing to take more if there is any interest. I pretty exicted to try it out, it should be a neat experience. Michele, although that does sound tasty, neither one of us like lobster. And she...

So, I've wanted a Ranch Kettle ever since I saw Steven Raichlen on BBQ University. He had one in the background, and used it a few times on the show. Although as cool as it would have been, it was very hard to justify the price. Last summer at a local garden house, who is a Weber dealer, I saw...

So, I've made boneless, skinless chicken breasts a lot of times on the grill. Everytime I've done them, there is no flavor. I've tried rubs, seasonings, and marinades. I can never seem to get any flavor "in to" the meat. It's always blah bland chicken. What am I doing wrong? The most recent...

Well, Ive been in the same boat. I wanted to get a 26 kettle becuase, when I cook brats and hamburgers, I run out of room really fast. I have a 22" WSM for my smoking needs, but Ive always wanted a Ranch Kettle. I had a hard time justifing the price. The more I thought about it, even with...

I have been pretty lucky with my online shipping, with one exception. That was with my speakers. They were 80lbs ea and not shipped in the original boxes. But everything else: LG Washer and Dryer 6 Home Theater Recliners My Projector (very Fragile) I just found out Im getting a Ranch Kettle. I...
