    Water pan replacement in 2022

    I have the fire dial and with it alone in the cooker with no water pan it is cooking direct so things will cook faster and your temp will show higher. I personally only use it for chicken, cooking any meat with alot of fat including ribs will eventually end up having a burnt grease taste to...

    Finally back to charcoal!

    we had a few red flag days where I chose not to fire up the kettle, 20+ mph winds and a tiny spark leaving the grill would have been a disaster considering I live near a forested area

    Technivorm Moccamaster Coffee Machine

    I debated the encore but decided I probably didn’t need 40 different grind settings , I purchased the capresso infinity with 16 grind settings . It works great , quieter compared to some others but only has a simple timer with auto shutoff . The encore is probably the most popular Grinder for...

    Thermapen classic vs one

    Classic good enough or spring for the one that’s a second faster? I have an old Taylor and it takes 10 seconds to get a correct temp

    True or Not?

    My grandparents had a brick bbq including a smokestack, she sold it and it took 4 people and a tractor to move it onto a trailer , she replaced it with a green weber in the 70s. Lots of large family reunions around the ol brick bbq

    Technivorm Moccamaster Coffee Machine

    ive seen a taste test on seattle coffee gear youtube channel and they claim the glass carafe tasted better...the hotplate keeps the coffee around 170-180f ...I purchased the glass version in 2015 and the carafe is a little delicate, factor in the chance you might have to purchase a replacement...

    How much babysitting does a Slow 'n Sear need?

    I smoked on the old kettles and now the new design with the P style vents, I find the P vent adds a new level of control...I set mine up to smoke some baby backs and it held 260 +or - 5 rock solid for the entire cook ...no water pan and the outside temp was about 95 degrees in the shade

    First Time using Slow 'N Sear Need some help.

    this is strictly my opinion but- in my cooking experimentation with the sns smoking (and banking coals on one side of the kettle for that matter) I think it produces some wildly uneven temps inside the kettle and food needs rotated. I also found that indirect baking potatoes with the sns did not...

    First Time using Slow 'N Sear Need some help.

    I dont use water in the sns, and I dont really use it for smoking anymore either. I went back to the weber charcoal baskets and place one on each side and halfway fill with unlit coal and pour the other half of lit on top with smoke wood. I put the meat between them with a drip pan below...

    Cleaning and care of cooking grates and water pan

    I ditched water in the pan over a decade ago, the easy off stuff works good on the cooking grate... there is some other stuff the pit barrel users use to clean out their smoker that looks to strip the inside of most grease etc...have not tried it, I usually do a "burnout" of the inside by...

    My 2021 Weber Premium!

    I like the green kettles, it would be hard for me to pick between copper and green...Im pretty sure my grandma had a green one in the 70s, she liked making bbq chicken on it
