    Small Vortex....how well will it work on a 22" Kettle ????

    Okay...thanks. I may run lump in it when using the larger kettles. Maybe that'll give a tad more heat. Well.....it thing proves to work really well on the 18" at the house.....I may simply get the medium for those road trips, lol. Small price to pay for excellent wings.

    Quick question about burnt ends

    Me, too. I've got a new WSM that I want to get running soon, too. Waiting on a warranty part to arrive. Weber was very fast in responding. I've got the day off next Monday. Hoping it arrives so I can maybe do a brisket Monday night. Planning on separating the point and flat prior to...

    Using harwdood only in your WSM?

    Cherry has sometimes been a finicky wood for me on low'n'slow cooks. I like to run my ribs at 225. I'm fine with doing my butts at 275 and it seems to burn more consistently on those hotter temps.

    Small Vortex....how well will it work on a 22" Kettle ????

    Does anyone have any experience with this ? I have a small Vortex coming my way with the intentions of using in on an 18" Kettle at my house. Friends and family members have 22" Kettles, however. :blackkettle: When visiting them, would the small Vortex work okay on wing, chicken & other...

    Thinking About Buying a Vortex

    Wok cooking ??? Wow.....now there is another stellar idea. Somewhere around here I have a cast iron wok that's never been used. Could be set up over the Vortex and all sorts of out door stir fry options could occur. What a great idea. Thank you for that. Now I'm really sold on the...

    Deep but subtle smoke flavor

    The next brisket I try will rubbed down well the night before and placed in garage refrigerator that I'll run as cold as I dare so it doesn't freeze the packer....but gets it dang near that point. I'm going to toss it in the WSM directly from that fridge and see if there is improved smoke...

    Anyone using the aftermarket stacker units to expand capacity ?

    Awesome. Thank you. First time I looked at 22 WSM up close, I thought to myself, "This thing could smoke a pile of food at once". Then, a year later a buddy gets up and running really well using a pair of them and his success had me convinced to go ahead and buy one last week. I saw the CB...

    Thinking About Buying a Vortex

    I'm thinking I'll soon be adding both based on comments I read about this. My family loves grilled wings and I normally get decent results cooking them on the kamados. I don't get quite the crispy skin that I want unless I risk overcooking the inside. It sounds as if the combination of a...

    Hello from Georgia !!!

    Thanks, Lew. I was pleased at the speed and level of help with the issue. Really looking forward to getting this WSM smoking some bbq soon. Weber customer service said the replacement part should arrive in 7-10 days.

    What has been your maximum pork butt payload on your WSM's ?

    Just added a 22 and was hoping to get 6-8 in there and smoked nicely. Would love to see some of your largest cooks on yours.

    Anyone using the aftermarket stacker units to expand capacity ?

    I see Cajun Bandit has a stacker unit for the WSM. Would add another grate. Potentially another 2-3 pork shoulder butts to a load of 6+ already stuffed in there on a 22.5 Would you trust the legs to support this much additional weight ? Mega capacity for big feeds is an allure of mine with...

    Your WSM lives a better life on wheels?

    I'm going to give the Cajun Bandit wheels a try on my 22.5 WSM. Should make it easier wheeling it out from the garage to the cooking spot.

    Using harwdood only in your WSM?

    Agreement about the viability being best utilized in an offset. I'll add that cherry can be a finicky burning wood, too.

    First overnight country smoke concerns

    My new WSM may not be 100% critter-proof...but should be even more sturdy after I get it up and running. I ordered the Cajun Bandit wheel kit that has the latches for the base and main chamber. Being able to roll it in/out of the garage will be nice.

    Hello from Georgia !!!

    Howdy folks. I had my last Weber, a kettle, some 20-some years ago during college life and beyond. It was a highly versatile grill that saw me through some fun times. The last several years I've been using kamado grills for cooks for my small family. I've been wanting to expand the smoking...
