    BBQ Guru help - test run won't hold temps under 285F

    I was thinking the same thing, but this morning I had much better results. After 200f the fan started ramping down and it steadied around 250. Put the ribs on, and some green onion brats. Temp steady between 245 and 250 now. I' thinking that when loosened the deflector plate/attachment deal to...

    BBQ Guru help - test run won't hold temps under 285F

    i had wondered about the lack of mass when the smoker is empty. I do have 14" terra-cotta tray in there. I noticed when I installed the deflector plate that it does not sit flush on the inside of the weber, wouldn't think that would make a difference as the entry point for the air is still...

    My WSM cart and handle mods

    The plywood supply place called it 1/2" MDO (as in oh, ok) and said it was fairly weather proof and he would have no problem leaving it out in the weather as it is. I'll probably still do something to it eventually. RG3, We probably are a bit lucky. Just thank goodness for that Redskins "home...

    My WSM cart and handle mods

    you guys have inspired me to do my own mods even thought i lack mechanical/woodworking skills and tools. Nothing original here, just taking the good ideas already posted by others. 1) 22" WSM needed to get the black "gate handles" - a little bending to fit the 7 1/4" hole centers already on the...
