    First smoke on my new WSM

    Thanks, it was a busy day but lots of fun as well. The mash was for an imperial porter that I'm going age on vanilla beans and add cold-brewed coffee to (going for something similar to Ballast Point Victory at Sea). The second runnings is just a standard american brown ale. This was my first...

    First smoke on my new WSM

    Very very few commercial brewers brew this way, from a cost perspective it's not the most efficient, but at the homebrew scale the cost difference is negligible, and it allows me to have 5 gallons each of 2 different beers instead of 10 gallons of one beer. I don't get to brew very often so I...

    First smoke on my new WSM

    Whelp, today was my first official cook on my new 22.5 WSM. I picked up 3 slabs of loin backs and 2 small butts.... For my first cook I am very happy with how everything went, other than the fact that the 4# butts took almost 9 hours to cook and my ribs were just slightly undercooked as well...

    New guy in Tampa - any local butcher recommendations?

    Thanks for the welcome... I'll check out Feltons, my in-laws live in Dover so that will be a good excuse for me to sneak out the next time I'm stuck down there against my will. I've driven down by Peacocks.... If you think the road is scary the actual location is worse haha. Let's just say I...

    New guy in Tampa - any local butcher recommendations?

    Just a quick hello from a soon-to-be WSM 22.5 owner in the Tampa area... I have always wanted a WSM and thanks to a very successful year at work (I work in sales for a major scientific supplier) I will be getting a very nice bonus in about 6 weeks. I will be treating myself to a 22.5 and IQ110...
