Where did you find someone selling refurbs? I haven't seen them on the thermoworks site recently, maybe I missed it?

My local restaurant supply store sells the clear plastic squeeze bottles for less than a buck each. I think the small ones are close to .75 each. At that price I wouldn't sweat losing one per job. You could sell extra sauce for a few bucks per bottle and include the bottle.

Some forums have an option to pay for extra features, like uploading pictures. Usually folks who help financially support the site get some sort of icon next to their name. Maybe that could help Chris provide this feature and help offset his costs of maintaining this awesome place. Anyway...

I'm going to start cooking my own BBQ on my WSM instead of buying it from a restaurant. Wish me luck!

Good idea David. I'll go look at the silver and some pots that will fit. The hinged grate is also important to me, I didn't realize the silver grate was flat.

I've decided that I want a 22.5" kettle to keep my 18.5" WSM company. What I can't decide is if I want a OTS or a OTG. Is the ash catcher the only difference between a OTS and a OTG? Is this really worth a 55% price premium? The price is really holding me back on a gold, I could scrape...

I'm in the same situation, except I have a WSM and I keep wondering if I should buy a kettle. So far the WSM is winning. My only WSM complaint is that the 18.5" is too small for a full rack of ribs. I trim the end off to make them fit and curve them a bit.

Are you new to BBQ and new to the WSM, or just new to the WSM? If you're new to BBQ I recommend chicken, because it's cheap and easy. If you screw it up you won't be out $30 like a pack of baby backs. I like Perdue fryer or broiler chickens, they come in a 2 pack at BJ's. Specifically, I...

Kingsford changed the packaging of the Kingsford Competition bags sold at HD. The new bags are smaller and cost more, and they have a new SKU. Your store has likely not received a shipment of the new bags, or they don't feel the product is worth selling at the new price per pound. I posted a...

Larry Wolfe's top grates: http://wolfepit.blogspot.com/2...on-grill-grates.html I wonder if a hinged top grate from a OTG would also work to get access to the middle tier without removing the top grate. I don't know how large the hinged sections are.

Very cool implementation. It seems that just a bolt/nut would work as well without the shelf bracket. It looks like a factory option with the brackets installed.

Do you guys trim any of the fat off, or do you just cook them the way they look in Robert's pictures? I am assuming that small pieces like this would cook for 3-4 hours at low heat (225-250). Higher heat (275-300) would probably cook too fast. I am correct? I measure temp at the vent.

I read this in a book and decided to give it a try the last time I cooked chicken on my WSM, it worked pretty good. Take a propane blowtorch, the kind you use to sweat pipes, and use the flame to crisp the skin. I get the torch head an inch or two from the skin, so the side jets are touching...

I use a propane blowtorch, the kind you use for soldering pipes. I already had it in the garage, and it works great. It's pretty hot and the flame is pretty big. It only takes a few seconds to light the paper. If you have to buy one get one with a trigger, not one that requires a...

How does the KCBS day pass work if you don't have a tax ID? Do they charge you sales tax? How many day passes can you get from KCBS? Do you just get in once, or can you go back in a few months?

I've been using Comp K because they don't smell like blue K but they burn pretty consistent. I haven't found any other natural briquettes locally. The price jump might inspire me to try some other fire sources.

I picked up a bag of Kingsford Competition Briquets at my local Home Depot today. They had restocked recently and the new bags are smaller, but more expensive. The old bags are labeled 12 lb, equivalent to 15 pounds of Kingsford Original. That is a 1.25 conversion. These bags used to be $8.97...

Did you guys marinate or brine the chicken before putting on Harry's rub?
