    Should I keep my OTG?

    I guess that depends on your wife. Mine couldn't believe I bought another Weber Kettle this weekend, but when I explained my reasoning (Previous Post) she understood. I had better have a damn good reason the next time!

    Bought a new One Touch Silver today......

    I hear that Gary McD. I am wondering when the commmon sense goes out the window and they want to tax us charcoal users for our "Carbon Footprint" It really is only a matter of time!

    Bought a new One Touch Silver today......

    I've been carrying around my Stainless Performer to cook at work and down at the river and it has just been a pain in the butt! So today I decided to buy a Silver that isn't as heavy and easier to carry. I went to my local Ace Hardware and the only kettle they had was an 18 1/2" kettle for $118...

    Apple Smoked Turkey

    Thanks Larry. I told her that you didn't smoke a frozen turkey. Looking forward to smoking a 15 lb. bird tomorrow the nice and easy way. Might even drink a few Heineys in the process. Has the makings of a classic Thanksgiving. You know the kind that family will talk about for years as this will...

    Now, reluctantly, a fan of foiling.

    I cook my ribs @ 250 for 4 hours and wrap in foil for about an hour. For that hour in foil they are smothered in your favorite sauce. No complaints yet!

    Apple Smoked Turkey

    Larry, Please clarify for my wife: Was the turkey frozen or thawed out. I really like the way the skin looked on yours at 5 hours. She likes the way I cooked one from Mr. Allingham's direction in under 3 hours. It tasted great, but I wasn't in love with the way the skin came out crisp and all...

    Now, reluctantly, a fan of foiling.

    I used foil even when I was smoking on my Performer way back when. This past weekend I smoked a tenderloin from a deer my brother had killed and wrapped in foil the final 45 minutes. You could cut it with a fork. Nothing wrong with foil.

    Are Pans Safe in Smoker?

    I used a pyrex dish when I smoked on the Performer and it turned a great looking amber color. It washed off no problem.

    How do you light your Weber Chimney?

    I was using my propane starter on my Performer until it went south on me. Have been saving and using my charcoal bags until I fix my ignitor on the "P". A whole lot less ash than newspaper and quick to light up.

    Just purchased an older Performer on craigslist

    Haven't used the cube. I have been saving my old charcoal bags and ripping them in strips. They sure do burn good and hot!

    Just purchased an older Performer on craigslist

    For $35 not bad. Just go to Home Depot and get you the Chimney Starter for $12.99. I have a Performer I received from work as a prize a couple of years ago and just use the chimney starter. Just as quick and efficient. My ignitor went on the brink a few days after I bought my first chimney and I...

    Foiling?

    Despite all the definitions of smoking, we can all agree that smoking is good. As for foiling, if I am cooking ribs or shoulder I will wrap my ribs in foil for about the last hour or so after they are done and I have smothered it in sauce. I do not put sauce on my shoulder at all.

    Cooking ribs and pulled pork ahead of time

    Steve, I would cook the ribs all the way and then the next day smother them in your favorite sauce wrap in foil and cook on indirect heat on your favorite grill at 225 to 250 degrees for an hour to an hour and a half.As for the pulled pork I would pull the day before and add whatever you like...

    My Modifications to my WSM....

    Finally figured out what I was doing wrong in regards to photos. I added a pair of Brinkmann Handles that I bought at Lowes. The smoker was damaged and I got the whole box plus another damged box for a complete smoker for $20. I had a left over pair of handles. After I found out Weber made a...

    Scored a Weber Go-Anywhere charcoal grill for $ 10

    I found one from 1993 still in the box unused at the local Flea Market for $8. I couldn't believe my luck. I have used it a few times when weather was going to get rough and didn't want to set up the Performer. Rick
