Well we had the chicken tonight and it was 2 thumbs up! Even after a reheat, it remained moist and tender. Slight smoke flavor but not overpowering. I got the go ahead to try salmon tomorrow. Since it is only cooked for about 40 minutes, does anyone have suggestions on how much charcoal to use?

Dave, Here's the site, look on the left of the page where it says "baking circle" and it will take you to the bulletin board. http://www.kingarthurflour.com/cgibin/start/ahome/main.html

Doug, What about my concerns about fitting the probe through the tube...are they unfounded?

Ooops...it's late, I've been staring at a digital thermometer for 6 hours... Sorry Jim...

Sean, If you can't find chunks, Charlie Minion suggests wood chips in foil with holes punched in the foil. There is a message about it around here somewhere....

Dean, You piqued my interest so much with your 'shroom talk, I looked into it and believe it or not there is a mushroom club on Long Island! There is a foray on Saturday, and I think I will go hang out with the experts and see what I can learn.

Well, I love it! I posted a message in the beginners forum, so I won't duplicate it here. I wish that the wires were longer. I am going to have to modify using a aluminum pipe and e-clip. I called my hardware store and they said they didn't carry it and I would have to go to some speciality...

Chris, Today was the maiden voyage for my new WSM. 3 racks of baby back BRITU, 2 whole chicken on a throne. Used the "reverse" Minion method, along with some hickory chunks (my apple and cherry haven't arrived yet), I left out the cayenne pepper on the BRITU because my family is all wimps and...

Did my first attempt with the WSM tonight. BRITU and chicken on a throne. 3 racks of baby backs, 2 whole chickens. The Maverick was a champ! Alarmed me if the temps were too high, reminded me when to turn the ribs, and informed me when the chicken was at 180. I also was obsessed with the...

Well, my WSM finally arrived! It's been raining for days but tomorrow is sunshine! Off to costco for some ribs and chicken! I can't wait!

I recently went onto the KCBS bulletin board and saw them discussing these hamburger buns. I have frequented the King Arthur website where Moomie is a legend in her own time. I've never been much of a baker and was assured by so many members that these buns were foolproof so I made them and...

Fool me once.... Not this time buddy...I'm gettin wise to your ways...

Well Dean, I don't have any advice, but would love to know how to hunt for morels without poisoning myself. Any suggestions?

Mine came today! Performed the same tests, got 213 on both probes...close enough. Now if only the WSM would get here... The only things that bug me...in one part of the manual it says it is waterproof for use in rain, on the very next page it says do not use in rain...make up your mind. Also...

I've checked with the following chains here on Long Island: Home Depot Lowes True Value Wal Mart Costco Costco doesn't carry anything, all others carry mesquite and/or Hickory only.

Jim, Thanks for answering my question...I'm one of those people that learns best by knowing the consequences of my actions...I remember telling my son when he was 3..."if you ride your trike in the road, you'll get hit by a car, the tires will crush you head like a pumpkin and you'll die..."...

(Gal bowing down to Dean in gratitude...) Thanks for the recipe...I cant wait to try it! It is exactly what I was looking for! <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>If you are going to smoke this, add 5 tsp of D.Q curing salt <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Why do you need...
