Hey Anthony. Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new baby! When I got my 22 I had decided to get the cajun bandit door and ring. At the last minute I decided to cook on it first to see the difference. I still haven't ordered my door and ring. They do look cool and I am sure they work...

Hey Kevin. Don't worry about asking questions. While there are some amazing cooks here, most of us are just trying to figure out what the heck we are doing just like you. Every time I figure out one thing I find another thing that I can improve on or was doing wrong. As to your question, it all...

Ditto what Dave said. 10:00 seems to work well for me. If I stay up any later, I just make sure that I add coals before I go to bed. If you have a thermometer that you can set for an alarm at a low temp that can be helpful, but you should be able to get at least 8 hours of sleep either way. The...

Awesome, well thanks much guys. I don't know if this is needed, but it's gonna happen. I really appreciate a place like this where info is shared so well. Thanks also for doing all of the hard work so a green horn like me can come in here and make a cool looking smoker in no time! When it's done...

Gotcha. Thanks Jay. Oh, and John, I'm glad to see the stickers are not on your cooker anymore.

Agreed. But how can we say that it is a myth that they are inacurate when they just don't read the correct temp? John is correct in my opinion and it's cool that he went to the trouble of checking it, but if it is not possible for it to read correctly mounted where it is, then why mount it there...

Thanks fellas. OK, one more question. It seems from what I have read that the silver is the way to go, but I see alot of golds. What is the best way to go?

Looks like you knocked that one out of the park!

I am glad you replied Ryan. Your mini looks very interesting. I am wondering what method of modification you would recommend for a guy who is not in comps, just tailgating and home use, your mod or the tamale steamer mod?

Welcome back to the good fight Patrick. Oh and make sure you put your cooker away this time!

Thanks for the info guys. I am getting really excited to try this. Would be perfect for tailgating! Of course, I have to wait till next year now.

Hey J. I have done both high heat and low and slow. I like both. I absolutely think that the sauce Wolgast suggested is the best I have had. The only complaint I have is it's messy and it takes a lot of tending to while cooking (Done on the grill, high heat, indirect, basting with sauce multiple...

Sorry for not being clear. Yes, I want to do the tamale steamer mod.

I was wondering how long of a burn do you get on your smoker joes without adding fuel? I am getting more and more interested in doing this for tailgating with apps and such. Plus it's just cool looking!

Thanks guys. I didn't think I was THAT crazy. I use evoo too. Interesting to see the other ideas. Just as I figured...What would a famous chef know that TVWBB wouldn't know?

Maybe try firing it up and see if you can move them once you get some heat in it? And then never do that again!!!!!! Oh and welcome to the forum.

So I'm watching Jamie Oliver on the cooking channel and he said that he feels that if you put oil on the asparagus before you grill it, it gets a bitter taste. I always put oil on it before I grill it and love it. I used to use butter, but felt I got a better result with oil. Am I alone here...

I have read where guys that have an 18 have to go to a 22" cover when they add handles. Will the Weber cover still fit a 22 if you add handles?

There always seems to be a beagle lurking! Mine is ready for another cook for sure. She likes anything I cook as long as it has some sort of bone in it. Sometimes I think our dogs have more bbq experience than most people.

I just foil the water pan and leave it empty.
