here's the bacon finished...I'm thinking about smoking up the other 10 lbs I have and then cooling it and freezing it in convenient packages...then thawing and frying on a griddle to reheat... do ya'll think that would work?

I have the same price with my 18.5 WSM on the tabs...I had to bear hug the middle section some to get into back into round and then the tabs fit a lot better...I'm gonna try the washer trick though because it could fit better than it does... I would try to bear hug the middle section as a...

btw, just so y'all know...a regular residential cookie sheet won't fit in an 18.5 WSM lol...had to transfer to 9x13 pan

I know Smoke Day is over, but I'm gonna add this to this thread anyways because it's still Memorial Day Weekend... I'm gonna smoke up some Chuck Roasts...covered 2 of them with some SPG and onion...and the other I only covered in Montreal Steak Seasoning...gonna try them out and see which way...

I ate half the ribs tips too lol...by the time I got to partake in the rib taking I was full on chips and snacks unfortunately... On the other hand, it leaves more ribs for me to enjoy today...and it's almost that time to dig back into them

and the obligatory bare bones pic...they were awesome...

here's the plated ribs...initial tastes are that I'm gonna love this WSM :D

Glazed up and on the grill...I was really worried about the temp falling to 215, but it slowly crept back up to 240 while it was in foil...well, the worrying was all for naught because the ribs are so done that they fell apart when I lifted them back onto the smoker lol... another 15 minutes or...

up to 240...I'm a much happier camper now

Ralph that's looks great man...I'm gonna build one of these when I replace my Smokey Joe with a Jumbo Joe...I look forward to the build thread... also, then Rangers might just pull it off again in 2014 :D

so little bump dance and it's hovering right at 233 now...that's better for now

thanks for the confidence Bob...I think I'm gonna go take my aggressions out on the bowl lol...I'm gonna go give it a little bump dance myself

lol thanks Ed...I'll keep that in the back of my mind if I kick start it

one more question...in the future, if I use lump charcoal is there less ash?

I kicked it a couple of times before I foiled the ribs...and I do have water in the pan also...I'm using KBB...I might try to open the door and get the heat up some...it's up to 220 now assuming my temp gauge is like everyone else's lol, it should be 250 at the grate, but you know what they say...

it's not much but it's some though lol...thanks I'm just wondering if 215 is too low or is that fine

do I need to open the one facing the breeze and close down the others some? I had all 4 vents wide open for a little while and didn't seem to do a thing to it

now it's hovering around 215..I have 2 bottom vents open and the one that's facing the little breeze we have outside is closed almost all the way...the top vent of course is wide open... any suggestions

Well, 3 hours are up...it's foil time... This is what the ribs looked like when they came off the smoker... Giving them a little lovin'... Back on the smoker for another 2...spares on the top...tips on the bottom...

I'm having a little bit of a problem with my 18.5 WSM fluctuating some...I'm trying to keep it at 250 and it keeps wanting to fall off to 240 then 225 then it rises back up to 230...it's brand new...this is only the second time I've smoked on it so maybe that has something to do with it...the...
