    Is Competion BBQ the new "NASCAR" ?

    Rick, I couldn't have said it better myself. I only do a couple of comps a year, but I do take my motor home. I have the motor home for other activities as well, but I figure I may as well use it. It provides me with a nice place to sleep and get out of the weather. I have a refrigerator and...

    Beer at Comps

    I have not be to a lot of comps, but I think it is not so much "allowed" as tolerated at most comps. I think that most of the time they turn the other way if the competitors want to have a couple so long as they are somewhat discrete about it.

    cooking a smaller piece of brisket

    I am assuming this is a brisket flat? How much fat is on it? Is the fat cap intact or is it pretty well trimmed up? These factors all play into the cook time. As a rule though, I plan for 1-1.5hrs/lb if you are cooking low and slow (230-240).

    First water free cook

    Sorry, I didn't look at the price. I got both of mine at Lowes for $18. They are used in lieu of water as a heat sink. Many people are using them with great luck

    grill cleaning, the easy way

    Tried this tonight with the water pan from one of my 22" WSM's. I won't do that again. Or if I do, I will have to clean it better before I put it in the oven. We went on a bike ride while it was in there and when we got back the house was filled with smoke! I had to open all the windows and get...

    Can you decribe this process further.

    First water free cook

    I would feel confident in saying that the lack of water had nothing to do with the dryness of the food. It is a common misconception that having water in the pan adds moisture to the cooker. All the water does is provide a heat sink, which is the same thing you are doing with the clay saucer...

    Catching the fat when cooking several butts

    Yes I have bought some foil from GFS. I used it once and then gave it to my wife for her salon. They use it for foiling hair. It was way to thin, if you sneezed on it, it would tear.

    Catching the fat when cooking several butts

    I am guessing you meant to say 1000 feet not yards. All the ones I have found are either 500' or 1000' and they are about in that price range. I may have to bite the bullet and get some.

    vent settings?

    I am going to use my 22WSM for the first time without the stoker this weekend. I had to send my stoker in for repair and I won't have it back until early next week. Can someone tell me how they have been setting their vents both for start up and after its up to temp. Also how much lit charcoal...

    Catching the fat when cooking several butts

    I use 18" foil now and actually just bought a box of it. The 24" is more than double for the same amount. Ouch!

    Catching the fat when cooking several butts

    Glen, I have tried several ways of piecing it together and the fat always finds it's way into the pan. Seems like the 24" foil is the way to go. Where do you get yours? I was looking online and it is very expensive!
