Rich, congrats on the Performer! From my experience, you may want to mod the cover somehow to get it to stay on in those high winds you talk about. I come home often and find my cover on the ground, clinging desperately to 1 leg of the grill with the little velcro straps. I keep meaning to get...

It's cool that he demonstrated the stability by placing a weight off-center... that'd be one of my concerns.

It seems like treated wood would only be an issue for the table TOP, but the OP said the tabletop would be tile. Why does it matter if he builds the frame of the table with treated lumber?

Man, I know I've told you this before, but your dog is awesome!

Hi Robert, I like what you did there with the pork - interesting and sounds tasty... and the salad sounds great!! Really nice job. :)

Nice looking butt! The pork, of course... :p I was at a mom'n'pop grocery store today looking for some grub for lunch. I happened to notice the meat case contained ONE packer brisket in Cryovac. Out of curiosity, I asked the price and the butcher told me it was $11.19/lb!!!! I just about...

Nice wings! Is that Walkerswood common in supermarkets? I've never noticed it before, but have seen a lot of people talking about it since I joined the forum. Most people seem to like it, so I'm interested to try it.

Welcome to the site David. I'm pretty new here too, but I've noticed IL has a lot of representation. I reckon that on Smoke Day 11, someone wouldn't be able to travel far in Chicagoland without smelling some deliciousness! Love those baconion rings! Keep on grillin' :flagkettle:

Hey there, Wayne, welcome to the group. I saw in your other post, you have a nice collection of Webers - let's see them in action!

Howdy David! Welcome, and I'm personally looking forward to seeing more of your posts this summer! From what you've shared so far, you're going to fit right in. Your points do make sense, but I've never encountered either as a problem, in my own experience. We tend to buy our fresh Italian...

Nate, in the thread you linked to, you showed photos of pre-cooking the sausage before using in the deep-dish. Do you always do that? I normally like putting uncooked sausage on pizzas, so that it cooks in the oven, but have not tried this with deep-dish. Being buried under layers of crushed...

Awesome score on the Performer, guys! I like the lid handle on those "older" models more than the new ones with the heat shield and sheetmetal "nuts" holding it on. Hope you get a chance to use it soon!

Wow, Nate, that looks incredibly delicious. Italian sausage is absolutely the best topping for deep dish. *drooling*

Looks like a wonderful way to spend the weekend, Jim! I've been going yearly to Minocqua/Woodruff since I was about 7 years old, and have had many great stays in Manitowish Waters, Mercer, Presque Isle, and Rhinelander as well. The Northwoods is truly like my home away from home, and I...

And you snuck in some shrimp when nobody was looking! That looks really tasty! Nice choice in brew, too, and it's local for you. (Lucky..) You couldn't beat this meal with a stick!

Thanks Rich. I believe you're right about the surface/mass ratio. Good point.

Very cool about the wifi tethering! Would you use the 135mm for those bird shots, or a longer zoom?

Looks great so far Rich! I love doing overnight smokes, and you can't beat the WSM's temp stability. Curious, are you going to add fresh smoke wood when you add the ABT's? If so, did you use less smoke wood last night on the butts than you normally would if you weren't adding more food later...

Can't argue with new photo toys! Looks like no optical viewfinder, but I like the adjustable viewscreen. How is the visibility in sunlight? The sensor seems to capture colors very well, and the DOF is nice, too. Hope you enjoy, now go shoot some birds!

Matthew, the wings look great! Man, I love some smoked wings. I had those in mind last night, but a sale on ribeye called our name instead... Nice choice of bourbon, and I dig the spherical ice ball! We have some sphere molds like that, and I also got a death star one as a gift one Xmas...
