    first cook tomorrow

    I did 3 whole chickens my first cook for 6 people. We are still eating the leftovers, so 2 really should do the trick. I did the basic barbecued chicken as well, only I didn't bother with the whole cutting them in half. Just rubbed them down threw 'em on the smoker. Probably uped the cooking...

    Why do I have to be stuck at work??

    So I placed an order for my tel-tru thermometer a while ago (good grief what did they have to do fire up the production line just to make one thermometer ). And have been patiently (okay okay I've been checking the tracking number ever 20 minutes to see where the bloodything was), when my...

    New WSM - Looking for rub suggestions

    Hey, I know the feeling about finding non-spicy rubs. My wife and kids don't like spice at all, I even have to watch how much pepper I use. Anyways I've only done 3 smokes total, and only one rib smoke, but I really liked the BRITU rub (course I left out the MSG I'm big enough as is). Also K...

    First slab of spares goin'

    I followed the following deviation from the cooking topics BRITU article: "I deviate from the process somewhat on this point, but achieve the same end result. I fire the cooker using the Standard Method, lighting a Weber chimney full of Kingsford charcoal briquettes, dumping them into the...

    First slab of spares goin'

    Well went with the advice about putting my hand on the lid. First time it was way too hot, like I couldn't even keep my hand there for 1/2 a second. So I shut the vents about 90%, kept them there untill I could keep my hands there for 5 seconds or so then opened them to about 75%. Left them...

    Easter Kielbasa 2008

    Hey Jim, I was browsing (read lurking ) through you photos and came across this one: WSM pic. I was wondering if you could explain the grate on top of the coal and wood. I'm fairly new to my WSM but I thought the grate when under the charcoal...

    Over flowing water pan

    Hey guys, I was doing a cooking contest for my work and wanted to go with pulled pork. I chickened out at the last minute and didn't use the WSM (don't stone me I'm a n00b ), and just threw the butts into a roaster we have. I ended up with about 25 lbs of butts (4 shoulders), set the temp at...

    What sort of butt is this?

    I'd say not really bad news that the fat cap has been removed...the more surface area you have the more "bark" your gonna get. Most folks remove the fat cap before smoking anyways. $3 a lb might be the bad news. I got my last butts for $1.39/lb, but you might be paying for the butcher...

Only problem I had was it...
