John, I am right with you man. A typical cook goes like this: 1. Season my meat up the day before. 2. When I am ready to cook, I light my half 1/3 chimney of coals. 3. Dump the cooking bricquets and wood into the base. 4. Take the main section IN THE HOUSE!!! and load it up with the...

I paid 3x as much... I still don't regret it...

Now the fun begins... How did you like the bark? Was it firm enough, too soft or just right? Its all up to you now.... Firmer bark, don't foil. Too firm add some apple juice to foil, just right don't change a thing... Its your thing now Joel, have fun with it... Jay

grey poupon...

Awesome Joel! That's what it is all about!

Tim, That's what I ran into with the SJS. It really is the wrong grill for this mod, the gold is so much better, and you don't run into the ash issues. Now the good news, play with it, and show us how to make the 8 hour fire with the sjs. Enjoy the journey...

Well if you really want to shorten the time... When its time to foil take the butt off and put the foiled butt in the oven at 325. Makes me sick to do it, but I will when I have to... (I have a wife and 3 kids so I don't always have the luxury of time, I have to just "git 'r done"). Jay

Joel, put the butts on as soon as you wake up. Whatever time that is... If you are cooking a lot of meat that day, i would get up at 6am. Jay

If you are unsure and want to speed the time up and you are only cooking one but, I would cook it this way. (this isn't about getting traditional, or perfect butt, its about having something that's tasty and edible at the end) 1. After you have seasoned it (either immediatly or overnight)...

Right only the charcoal grate is in the SJG. I used the grill grate as my top most grill in my smoker. Jay

Here are some of the pics Larry described above... I find the mini egg the cutest little thing out there for smoking meat.

For my extra grates I used the charcoal grate from a weber 18" grill. I actually like these better than the standard grates because they are heavier duty and appear to season more easily... The are also just a bit smaller than the standard grate so they go into the steamer body much easier...

I agree with this 100% I still had enough charcoal to go for another hour, and I could have put more charcoal in, AND it was about 20-30 degrees most of the cook. I am really wondering how much meat you can cook in the 18 and 22 WSMs... probably enough to feed an entire army.

George, It was a chuck roast i let go fo six hours. I didn't use the flower pot just themeat sitting in an aluminum pan. The bottom was burned but i put the meat int a pan with water and it was edible. We made tacos out of the meat. Jay

Good stuff tim!!! I did a six hour cook today ruined the meat but i got six hours on one load of stubbs charcoal.

Tim, Go with the gold. For just $4 more, it will save you a lot of hassle. If you already had a silver I would say just use it, and don't spend the money. But the $4 premium is worth it for the easy of ash handling... (I have used both, and its no contest).

Look at this post.. This shows how I cooked 3 racks of wings. http://tvwbb.com/eve/forums/a/...861089006#5861089006 It should give you some good approximations of where everything is...

Matt, I did quite a few things with my cooker. I have cut the bottom all the way out now. I use the clay pot to difuse the heat. I drilled holes in the side of the lip where the steamer lid is. I used long screws to hold the dish up. I rest the 1st grill grate on that. Regarding the fuel...

Couple of thoughts... If you cut holes in the bottom you don't need a diffuser... the bottom diffuses the heat. The extra pie plate would serve to catch drippings. I did something similar at first, but I like having the hole and the clay pot (or pie plate) to difuse the heat. I think you are...

Look at this post, its buried in this thread, but it should give you a good idea about how much space is needed, etc... http://tvwbb.com/eve/forums/a/...271022595#7271022595 If you look at my posts I take pictures of most of my cooks, and you can see where everything fits. Look at my post...
