Thanks, Greg!

Haven't had mine long enough to know, yet. I got it about 2 months ago (for $25) and gave it a good cleaning inside and out. I bought a new cooking grate and I've made a charcoal basket. It gets used about once or twice a week. Haven't really noticed any accumulation but I'll clean her when...

Thanks! Looking forward to the pics!

Great job, Dennis! How tall is that oven cylinder? I'm guessing about 8". Did you roll or crimp the edges to get a tight seal or just leave them as cut? My kettle is the 22.5. I'm thinkin' I'm just gonna have to bake smaller pizzas - and more of them.

Yeah, Greg! Cough up the skinny on those carriage bolts. How long are they? What diameter?

Man! Ya done good, Matt! That bad boy looks like it is unused.

I caught part of an episode of Cook's Country (Christopher Kimble) last night. They rated vacuum sealers. They had one that weighed over 25 lbs and cost an arm and a leg and they had a Food Saver. I'm not sure, but I think they called it a 2260 (might have been a 2240) and they rated it the...

Follow-up on a charcoal basket in the mini. Here is a pick of the basket I cobbled together using EM and wire. I load it then take out 7-10 briquettes in the middle which I light in the chimney started and place back in the middle of the ring. It gives me a good long smoke and leaves more of...

Killer meal and presentation of the process. Can't beat flank steak when it's done as beautifully as yours.

Thanks, John. I don't doubt what the mini can do but I do doubt my own ability at this point. When I have more experience controlling the heat and get better at it, I will try both a butt and a brisket. My problem is that I'm learning to use the MES, the Smoker Joe and my OTG all at the same...

Congratulations! That looks delicious. My mouth is watering.

@TimTheGrillaholic (in Lexington, NC - home of some great pork barbecue) I can't speak for Tim in Wisconsin, but I tried my mini-WSM using just the charcoal grate in the SJS and found that the ashes from K briquettes almost choked off the air despite having placed a 28 oz. tomato can - cut to...

Great job, Stu! That is a different take on the simple SJ usage with a tamale pot but I sure do like it!

Lowes has EM. It is wrapped in cardboard and racked with all the other metal pieces they sell in the hardware aisle. They only have 12x24 sheets of it in my store but you can make a basket of that if you lay it out carefully. Did you get the IMUSA pot? I found that there were only about 4...

It is good to know that nitrile gloves are OK to use in food prep. I am not too concerned about contaminating food being prepared because I cook to temperatures that will, generally, render any harmful bacteria harmless. My concern is to not infect myself and to have an easy clean up while...

Thank you all for the responses! My search fu was weak today. I couldn't come up with 'food service' as a qualifier to save me. Was just my day to be the bug instead of the windshield. Thanks, again!

Does anyone have recommendations for a type of disposable gloves to use in prep work? I have grillers gloves for handling beef and pork coming off the smoker or grill. They protect my hands from the heat and are ribbed for good grip. I'm happy with these gloves. What I'm looking for are...

With a 22.5" Weber kettle, OTG, I find that the handle on the lid gets to hot to use it. I have to find a glove to insulate my hand from the heat. I have not yet used more than one Weber chimney of Kingsford briquettes. I bank my coals to one side trying to make a 3-heat fire. I cook with...

Sorry to hear about that, Mark. They are plentiful here but so are folks of Hispanic descent. I would suggest Amazon, but I think there might be problems with international shipments. If you get really desperate, let me know and I'll ship one to you; but it will be very expensive for the...
