This morning I'm smoking 5# pork shoulder. I've got the 22" WSM smoker, no water in the pan and I'm burning KBB. My temperature keeps rising. When I started this thread it was up to 279 and rising. It is very windy out today. I've got 2 of the three lower vents closed and the third open...

As previously mentioned it looks like a Brinkman or Brinkman like smoker. It was my first smoker now it's my fish smoker. What puzzles me is where to put the charcoal? Mine has two pieces on the bottom. One that holds the charcoal and upon which the body sits and fits in another with the legs...

15 years ago I bought my first smoker. It is a tinny, leaky, inexpensive Brinkman. WAY before I knew anything about WSM's. Anyhow I still use it but now exclusively for fish. It's a little smaller than my 22.5" so it's easier to move and uses less charcoal. It got me to thinking if others use...

So reading all this good info about smoking and what wood to use got me to thinking, if green wood smokes can I use it in my WSM 22.5"? My neighbor has a couple of apple trees that he prunes from time to time. Why couldn't this be used as is. Take a limb that's about 2 - 3" in diameter, slice...

ChuckO, I've never used parchment. Do you use smoke the whole time? 1.

I think that's a sound decision. Why risk your Q reputation.

I know it's late but I'm smoking fish tomorrow morning. Do any of you have any brining recipes for trout that you have used and can recommend? Thank you very much.

Have you called Weber? You could buy one from them.

What a great idea. Thank you. Do you "pin" the coils to hold them together?

I've read in some of the posts where some of you DO NOT use racks in your WSM when smoking ribs. Is there a better way to stack and pack the ribs to ensure good surface exposure to the smoke other than racks? I'm all ears. Thank you

Loaded up yesterday. Good to go until Memorial Day sales.

Enrico, great tip. Thank you. I usually place can in middle of charcoal. Looks like your idea might make air control more accurate and might even extend burn time. I'll definitely give this a try on my next cook.

Mache, I used the full thickness for the door (3/4") and cut the gasket for the bottom and mid section. Yeah, the gasket gets a little brown around the door but I like the look. Let's me know that I'm really using it.

So here are the results of my first trout fillet smoke. They were a disappointment. "Dry and bland" as a coworker told me. Good news is that it did not cost me a lot, made a GREAT smoked salad with a little Mayo and capers, learned that I need to try bringing and seasoning AND, last but not...

So it's been a dreadfully long winter and I've been jonesin' to smoke something, anything. Today in Costco I came across some trout filets and I thought, "Great" let's smoke these so I bought two packages. Now I'm thinking, "What the heck did I do". I've smoked whole trout, salmon, chicken...

Sorry to ask this but can someone point me to the link for this method of cooking ribs? I've been searching all over the site and can not seem to find it. Thank you.

Last week I wanted to smoke some cheese. I did some searching on this site and one poster wrote about using the Amazen Smoke Generator. Although I didn't have one it got me to thinking about a smoke generator vs using regular wood chunks for regular smokes. Do any of you use a generator in lieu...

Frankie, before I got my WSM I smoked fish (both trout and salmon), pork, beef and chicken on a Brinkman with no problems BUT I always smoked the fish last. After the smoke I always let the charcoal burn itself out and then thoroughly cleaned the grates and water pan. Now that I've got my WSM...

Costco is running a sale on Kingsford Competition charcoal. Discount is $4.50 off 2x18 lb. bags. The flyer does not state final cost. My question is, how does it compare with the regular Kingsford briquettes? I could use a couple of bags until the regular KBB is on sale. Thank you.
