Baby Backs on the performer.

Mid way through this cook a really strong wind came out of nowhere! It made it hard to keep the temp up. So I decided to remove the pot and finish the wings directly over the coals. Once I exposed the charcoal to that wind, the lit up really hot! I ended up burning the wings a little more than...

Thanks Tim. Unfortunately I may have to remove the handle on the bottom vent. When the smoker gets hot the metal on the vent is too soft for the additional weight. It ends up bending down, and I'm afraid it's going to ruin the vent. :( I need to figure out how to reinforce it better.

I must have missed your call to come over? Those grill marks from the CI grates are awesome.

I did a test burn a couple of days ago and it did an outstanding job! Tonight it's time to officially break her in. I figured that I'd do something easy like wings. Tomorrow I'm doing Baby backs for the Bronco's game. Wish me luck! Here's the wings just put on the mini. Added a little...

That burger looks good!

I came up with some vent handles that I liked. So tonight I installed them. Which pretty much completes my Mini build. I have to say that I really enjoyed doing this. I'm planning on breaking her in on Sunday to get ready for the beating the Broncos are going to lay on the Chargers. Philip...

Let me know when you break in that grill grate so I can come over!

I used ace hardware brand bbq paint. It was rated to 1000 degrees. The logo I got right off the weber website. If you click on the About us link, then part way down there's a link that says something like view the weber time line. It was in there. That was also a cool read about webers history.

Ok so I have made some good progress on the Mini build. I finally decided what I wanted to paint on it. I decided to go with the original weber logo from the 50's (according to weber.com). Here's some pics of the process: I'm not very good at drawing so I taped the pot, then taped a print...

I want see that thing cut open! 18+ hours? that's nuts

I did spend quite a bit of time grinding too! I thought about trying to clamp the rolled edge as you suggested, but was unsure of how it would have come out. It looked like it needed just a tiny bit of grinding. But it just wouldn't fit right until it came completely off. It should work...

I actually saw your build thread with this knob. It looks really good. My steamer lid didn't come with a removable knob like that unfortunately. But it got me thinking that an old crystal door know could make a cool handle too. I think I have one laying around somewhere that used to be on the...

Well, my awesome wife got me a tamale steamer for Christmas, so I finally started my Mini WSM build today. Please let me know if you have questions about my build. Hopefully it will help you with yours! I picked up a SJS from craigslist a few weeks ago for $8. I had literally been used one...

Thanks Rob. They were great! :)

As mentioned here is a posting of my homemade Beer Reduction BBQ sauce: http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?47733-New-Belgium-Beer-Reduction-BBQ-Sauce-recipe&p=513537#post513537

I've been messing around trying to make a good BBQ sauce. I finally came up with something that I like. So I wanted to share. I start by making a beer reduction sauce with the following: New Belgium 1554 1 Jalepeno 2 Habaneros 1/2 cup of sugar Cut just the tips off of the peppers and add all...

I'm a little late posting these pics, but here are some final pictures of the meal. Hot off the grill and ready to be cut: All cut up and ready to eat: The final plate. Loaded baked potato caserole, corn, and raspberry jello with fresh raspberries cooked into it. I'll be posting the...

I finished them on the grill with just some sweet baby rays. But I did make a sauce to eat them with. I'll be doing a post about that sauce cause i think it's pretty good.

That pie looks delicious! Save me some.
