They look wonderful! I am eyeing that country peach pie!

I know this is an old thread, but I'm planning to make this on Wednesday or Thursday and I just want to verify that the molasses is part of the marinade. The order of ingredients is a little confusing, but nowhere in the instructions is there a separate step for the molasses. I have the book...

Great pics! That looks fabulous! Petra

Looks great and I can practically smell it across cyberspace! I've never made pork belly, so I can't help out here, but it looks yummy. Petra

Still new to smoking, but I've made a couple of butts (separately) for some (very well received!) pulled pork. For me, it takes about 2 hrs. per pound, so the one I smoked last week (which was a 7-lb'er) spent 14 hrs on the WSM, plus another hour foiled in a cooler. If I have my butcher cut...

Scary! I have a small patio next to the house (to match the small house!), about 8 feet to a side, and that's where I have my grills and smoker. I won't cook with fire unless I'm actually home--once left the house for 15 minutes when I was smoking a pork butt (to feed a cat) and I was nervous...

Welcome! I'm new to smoking and I got the 18.5", which is perfect for me (I don't cook for crowds). Regarding the chimneys, I've used both a cheapie (from Lowes or Meijer) and the Weber; the Weber wins hands down! It's larger and seems sturdier. Got rid of the cheapie (it was a few years old...

Grilled Onion-Mustard-Jalapeño Relish 1 onion, preferably Vidalia or other sweet onion 1-2 jalapeños Oil (for brushing)—I’ve used olive and sunflower in the past ¼ cup cider vinegar 3 Tbsp light brown sugar 2 Tbsp Dijon mustard 2 Tbsp regular stone-ground mustard ¼ tsp caraway seeds 1/8 tsp...

BF is interested in a 22.5" Weber OTS, not OTG (he's not as into charcoal cooking as I am). If, later on, he wants to order a hinged 22.5* grate, will it fit the OTS? I apologize if this is a dumb question.

Home Depot does sound like a great deal. Too bad the closest one to me would cost me much more in gas, thus negating the savings! Petra

Lowes is running another buy one get one free offer on Kingsford charcoal for the holiday weekend (I think they did the over Memorial Day, too). Saw it in their sale flyer. Just wanted to send out a heads up. Petra

I made the Mr. Brown butt the other week (my first pork butt) and it was not too salty. The BF thought it was excellent. Petra

The image of the fireball in the original post had me chuckling! My dad, who IS extremely practical wrt electrical work, plumbing, masonry, basically anything construction-related, could not grill without copious amounts of lighter fluid. I remember Sunday afternoons/evenings when he had his...

Thanks for all advice! I wound up scraping most of the solids and dumping the rest (there's a depression that leads to a field behind my house), which was followed by a storm shortly afterward. When I cook, I usually just put stuff like that in the fridge, wait for it to solidify, and easily...

Did my first ever pork shoulder on the WSM--that's also my first smoke with water in the water pan. It made some delicious pulled pork! Anyway, my question is--what is the best way to dispose of the water/fat mix in the pan? Link to picture of pork--I had to move it onto the grass to get...

Thanks to all of you for helping me out here! Petra

I see references to cooking two butts/shoulders at a time, but what about only cooking one? How does that affect cook time? I usually wind up cooking for one or two and I don't have a dedicated freezer, only that which is at the bottom of the fridge (and it's an average-sized fridge), so I...

Well, it does say no question too basic, so here goes! Adding fuel/coals for longer cooks: How do I do this? I have a WSM 18.5" and I've only done relatively short cooks (chicken, turkey) so I've not had to replenish the fuel yet. How do I do that? Just open the door and use tongs to add...

That looks fabulous! Nothing like some great pictures to motivate those of us new to smoking to try this! Petra

This was hilarious!
