I like to do it by hand because my wife calls me an idiot when I'm jumping up and down with burning hands. I'm not sure why I find this funny and get some sort of weird satisfaction from it. Call it TRADITION if you want (cue broadway musical fiddlers and peddlers from impoverished ethinic...

I'd wager that you have seen the last of that bear. Sure, they have scary teeth and big claws, but you have stumbled onto a little known bit of bear folklore...They are absolutely terrified of lawn chairs. The native Americans used this to their advantage for centuries before handing down this...

I don't stir them so much as I gently move them around letting the ash fall through the grate. I haven't had a big problem with ash flying around, but there is some, I'm sure. My go-to tool for this is the double-prong thing-a-ma-jig that comes in the Weber grilling tools set. I've never...

Price. My understanding is that there is only one WSM model. Check out the Weber site youselfhere

It was at 310-315.

I did a couple of butts yesterday and they turned out good, but I detect a little burned taste on the bark. I'd like to leave out this flavor nuance on future cooks, so I am asking for a little advice. I did a couple of different things than my normal routine. We had high winds on Saturday...

Since the time when I purchased my WSM, I'm sure that the temperatures have dipped into the upper 40's on cook day. Let me tell you, it's rough when you have to wear long sleeve shirts . You have a lot of quiet and solitude on days like that because it's just too cold for any neighbors to be...

Jerry, I'm not an expert and I didn't get a detailed explanation from my uncle. I do know that the spray that they use now is some sort of insect hormone/pheromone(??) that confuses the little beasts rather than just outright killing them. This spray will wash off and is not to be worried...

Check out these stocking stuffers that I made up in December. I talked to the owner of the orchard last August asking if they ever had any prunings that I could have. Better than that, he said, was that he was pulling out a field of older trees to make way for a new planting. I went back...

You'll be buttering me up too after you see the 15+ gallons of apple wood chunks that we made last weekend . Whenever I get the images off of my camera and onto the web, you should prepare to be impressed.

Just wanted to report back on this one - I know that enquiring minds are dying to know how things turned out. Smoked the pastrami yesterday and ate it for supper. Everyone thought that it turned out quite well. The kids even said that it was better than their uncle's version (same recipe - I...

New Trader Joe's on Roswell Rd.? I passed by there this fall on the way home from the airport (on a side trip to BBQ Galore for pecan chunks). It had a sign saying open soon - I was upset that it wasn't open for me. Next airport trip maybe a finally get my hands on some tri-tip...We'll see if...

Thanks. I'll report back with results of the frozen pastrami (hopefully good) next week or so.

Here's the situation - I have had a brisket curing for pastrami since Wednsday night. I felt great when I put it in, but I feel like crud this morning. The last thing that I want to do is smoke this meat today . My plan is to rinse the meat and then put in the freezer for use on a later date...

Plywood sounds like a very bad idea - something non-woody is holding the plys together. Here is what a quick google search tells me: The type of adhesive used to bond the layers of wood together depends on the specific application for the finished plywood. ... Hardwood plywood used for...

I have seen that big bag that you're talking about. It has a brown wrapper that says to light the paper to get the bag started. I saw them at WalMart once. I didn't check to see what type of charcoal matchlite vs. regular. I do remember thinking that you would have to be grilling over a pit...
