I've never smoked a turkey before, and this year I'm the man for the job. Bought a 22.5 lb. pre-brined turkey. I would greatly appreciate some advice on smoking it. I'd like to smoke it hot'n'fast but the multiple people I've told are freaking out and telling me it's going to be dry. I was...

Thank y'all for the compliments! @Lynn: Yep, empty water pan. As soon as this cook was over, I carefully removed the water pan and cleaned all the gunk out. This was my 9th cook with the WSM. I'm definitely going to start foiling that water pan now; I've just been too lazy in the past.

Every time I've heard someone mention doing a hot'n'fast brisket, there's nothing but good things said. Everyone seems to rave about doing them. I saw the hot'n'fast brisket article on here about smoking 2 1/2 hours to 165-170, wrapping for another 2 1/2 hours until 200-203 and then resting...

A few months ago I posted about doing wings on the WSM doing the hot and fast method. Living in a household with someone who hates chicken, I have to plan out when I cook chicken or do something extra for them. They were away on Saturday, so I decided I'd give hot'n'fast wings and thighs a shot...

Thank you, Bill! Everything turned out pretty good on that day. If I can do it, anybody can do it! I hope Mark's turned out well!

I see where Clint made a video game thread. I'm on the Xbox One. I don't game all that much these days, except in the fall and winter. I created a club on the Xbox One called "Meat Smokers" for BBQ/smoking enthusiasts of all kinds. I thought it would be a pretty cool way to connect with other...

That's awesome, Chris! Congratulations! And hey, you are a master; as far as I'm concerned, you are the king of TVWBB. We all have much love and appreciation for ya.

I pretty much used what Chris mentioned, except it was the Backyard grill grate/screen thingymajig (wish I had a picture) that I picked up for $2 or $3 bucks from the grilling/outdoor section at Walmart. I cubed the belly, smoked for 4.5 or almost 5 hours, sat them in a foil pan with butter and...

Welp.. Saw a link on Facebook the other day to a high heat brisket and thought, "Huh, I might do one". Dwain reminded me that I need to do one like that for my next brisket cook!!

Got that right, Timothy! 11 lbs. went fast! But I love feeding others and seeing their reactions. Whether it's family, friends or simply acquaintances. No way I would have ever gotten into this smoking hobby if it was just me.

Just wanted to do an update! I smoked the brisket starting at about 7:55 pm Wednesday evening. Took it off at about 7:30 the next morning. One place hit 164 and a few others in the 167 range. It was 184 in the point. I wrapped it tight and tossed it in the oven for a couple of hours since I was...

Shooting for 225. No remote therm. Just checking it with my Thermapen.

I sure do appreciate your thoughts, Jay. I'm thinking about adding some water (not filling the pan) and smoking the brisket on the lower rack. Any thoughts on that?

I just saw Taylor - Frog Smoker's post about staying up with a brisket overnight. Anyhow, I smoked my first 'solo' (by myself) brisket last week. It was just the flat, not even 6 lbs. It turned out great -- better than expected -- and I ended up picking up a whole brisket from Wal-Mart a couple...

That look insanely good! Nice, Bob!

Thank you, Cliff and Barb! I meant to take pictures after I cut a few slices, but I guess I was just trying to hurry, as our guests were about to arrive! Hopefully I can get my hands on another in the future and give it another go! Can't wait for the next smoke!

I'm so happy that I bought the 22" instead of the 18". I'm the type of person that, when I smoke, I usually want to stuff the entire thing full. I also smoked mac and cheese and some bacon wrapped jalapenos, but I didn't take any pictures. You can see one or two country pork ribs in the...

The thing I'm loving about it the most is how much food can be put on it all at once. I cooked a massive stirfry the other day (I enjoy leftovers), and it was a breeze. My second favorite thing is how hot it gets. I've always -- always -- been a charcoal boy and love burgers cooked on a charcoal...

Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules on here talking about a non-Weber product (I Googled and saw a couple of related threads to this), but... I feel like -- for now -- my outdoor cooking equipment is complete (still waiting on finding an outdoor pizza oven that gets super hot for a decent...

Thanks for the replies, everybody! Well, I went through with it. Started it in my gravel driveway -- away from the house -- at 7pm and everything was still going great at 6am this morning. I last checked it at 11pm before going to bed. I'll always be a little creeped going out at night, because...
