    Brisket Advice

    A flat only is going to cook a lot of quicker than a full brisket. But the old saying is, it's done when it's done. I have had whole briskets take anywhere between 9 hours to 21 hours... Depending on temperature. Paradoxically........ The fastest cooking brisket I've had have been the biggest...

    Weber Coconut Shell Charcoal

    Sorta interesting. Coconut shells are used to make most activated charcoal for chemical adsorption waste treatment because of high porosity and surface area for adsorption.. big business for calgon.

    Out of shape middle section.

    These things are easily knocked out of round.....and easily back into shape... Drop lid will make it out of round, i just knock it back in ahape with a bang on deck post....or even heel of hand. Just take the wide spot that doesn't fit and bang right there with a block of wood. You'd be...

    WSM 22.5" Can not keep temperature consistent.

    You got air leaks plain and simple. You got to get rid of the air leaks. Top lid.... You need a gasket or you need a buildup of grease to seal it up there. The door the bottom corners have gaps put dabs of high temp silicone there... If the rest of your door is snug fitting. Body joint.... If...

    Duraflame buys B&B charcoal

    B&B is OK......a bit too small though. I prefer cowboy natural briquettes. I dont think there is a reason to think the duraflame will mess with b&b adversely. Just the same, I hate to see consolidation.... Because it often brings changes that are detrimental But sometime this necessary...

    Reheating Pulled Pork

    You can just put it in a Reynolds oven bag..... And drop it in a pot of boiling water. But doing it in a Crock-Pot or another pot with chicken broth sounds good too for serving it for people. Or put it in a pan with the finishing liquid, covered with tin foil and pop it in the oven for an...

    Hinge Suggestions?

    None. 1. Your lid needs to fit tightly and perfectly...... The hinge can keep it from doing that 2. If you want to add a gasket and you don't already have one you won't be able to once you put a hinge on it 3. And really doesn't give you that great access like you need for putting on brisket...

    "Super size" charcoal

    Maybe they're figuring out people don't want these tiny coals that light fast but burn away before your hamburgers are even cooked.. But to answer the question ..nope... I'm happy with Cowboy natural briquettes . There's no reason to buy anything else

    Burgers gone crazy

    Frozen isn't as good as fresh...... But it sure is a hell of a lot quicker....🙂. At any time I have enough cooked food in my freezer to feed my wife and I for more than a month...in conjunction with rice. I just put up about 3 gallons of gumbo on Saturday in 2-3 serving containers. Lots of...

    Burgers gone crazy

    Looks good.! I always make extras then vacuum seal them and freeze them. Then on the spur of the moment you can pop a frozen patty in the microwave and have a decent hamburger in 2 minutes. Even when it's just me and my wife I'll make up to 12 patties. The extras go into the refrigerator...

    2-2-1 Ribs - preventing grease fire

    Just don't use the bottom. It runs quite a bit hotter than the top and you will overcook ribs till they're falling apart there if you're not careful

    Blower air distribution pipe

    I dont think so. Zinc used in galvanizing has low melting point (786 F) and sublimates. Coppers melting point is much higher...(1985 F), any way beneath the coals it actually does not get very hot. There is however..... A drawback. And that drawback is the reduced airflow requirement...

    Blower is not working after years of function

    I find the same issue sometimes. I actually have corrosion on my connector....... That high quality china part im sure. Wiggling the cable around a little bit and unplugging it and plugging it back in tends to get it working. Probably need to replace the jack.... Mine tends to stay stored...

    Rib quandary

    I like the idea of finishing the last hour or so next day. Just don't discount the time to heat up back up from 37 F... Is going to take a while... It is possible to cook ribs in 3 hours flat or maybe slightly less.... But you have to be careful not to make the outside too hard with the higher...

    Water pan cover

    Yup. I never refuel. In fact, I did a test by letting my wsm keep going after i took a pork butt off. I can make 30 hrs without refueling....thats not maximum charcoal either. More important than refueling.....i dont need to knock down ash to keep it going......thats a thing of past with...
