Looks like it’s may be time to part with my remaining WSM 22 (2019) and my WSK E6 (2021). Looking to understand what a fair price is for each these days. WSM is in excellent shape. Lives in the garage and it’s only been used a half dozen times. WSK is in very good shape with no rust. I am the...

My daughter came over today and we made a 1 bone rib roast. A serious mini me. Whopping 3 pounds with the bone still on. Cooked on the WSK, indirect with reverse sear. Served with horseradish sauce. Served with Julia Child's Gratin Dauphinois (Au Gratin Potatoes) and big salad with herb...

Since re-owning my 2015 Performer (daughter couldn’t keep it), I have been using it a lot. Cooked single slab of BBs indirect at 275 (1 CB). While my E6 is still the go to, I truly love using my kettle. Kettle’s rule!

Chris- You posted (couldn’t find it) about a cleaning brush you use. Bought one and it’s been really good but it’s now worn out and the label isn’t readable. I would like to get a couple more. Could you tell me what the brush was?

For all in the Bay Area - My daughter and I are planning a bay halibut and stripped bass trip for either Wed Aug 21 or Wed Aug 28. Cost will be about $225 for whole day trip. Any local members want to join in?

Now that I have my 2015 performer back, I dug the Weber roti out of the garage. Doing a single bird. Here’s my question - the roti instructions call for 2 fires and many online sources, including Weber, say 1 fire. Anyone answer as to which is best? Looks to be fun. I don’t remember using...

Found JD briquettes at my local HW store. Anyone have any experience with these? The reason I ask is the local COSTCO doesn’t have Kpro in store but the JD is available. However, at $20 for 20 pounds, I thought I’d seek some of your experiences before purchasing.

Does anyone know of a grate for a E6 Kamado that does not have the Weber round center grate. I don’t use the accessories and don’t want to deal with the insert grate anymore. Thanks!

Need some advice, have a COSTCO 15 point butt to smoke on Saturday for my daughter. Will be eaten Sunday. The question is - should I cut it in half a cook 2 each 7.5 pounders, or cook it whole. I am leaning on halving to save time. Thoughts?

Got a small (2 1/4 lbs) rack of Coleman St. Louis pork ribs. I usually dry rub, smoke, then baste with BBQ sauce. Since I will be alone Friday hanging with the Corgis, I am looking for new flavor profile. BTW - want to cook hot and fast without brine. Any suggestions?

My son brought me a COSTCO brisket as a gift. I broke it down as I want to use it for different recipes. Was 16 pounds at the start and over 11 pounds once trimmed. The piece on the left was cut in half and braised for last nights dinner. The other part was mixed with scraps for chili. The...

Have taken up a past hobby building plastic models. The kit: The result. Not my best effort but not bad after a 20 break.

My daughter will be staying with us for a few months. She brought the 2015 performer that I gave her when I bought the E6. Spent some cleanup time. Fired up some charcoal and grilled up NM Chile burgers. I forgot how talented kettles are. I am glad its home…. Next up, rotisserie chicken (I...
