I was going to get up and smoke a 5 lb butt yesterday, but due to circumstances within my control (late night poker playing) I did not get up in time So I decided to try something different Here is what I started with, we've all seen these before I decided to quarter it up and try 4...

All the pizza cooks got me really wanting to try to grill some on the performer. Taking tips from everyone on here, I welded up some expanded metal into a ring about 18 inches. Then I put some rods thru it. This would raise the pizza up into the lid and also lift the lid about 1 inch from its...

Since a thread was started about foiling or not, I thought I would ask those who use butcher paper where they get it and what kind I found a lot of white butcher paper online but all the brown paper is "craft" paper So what do you guys prefer, white?, brown?, pink? butcher paper and where do...

Ok, so I have a 18.5 wsm and at one point had two. I have always heard everyone talk about how much bigger the 22.5 is. Today I walked into my local Ace hardware and they had a 22.5 next to a 18.5 set up on the showroom floor. HOLY MOLY that thing is huge!!!!! ...anyway, just saying.

So as long as I have been cooking, anything, I have never liked the lemon pepper seasoning that you can buy. It just has a funny taste to me whether its on chicken, fish, etc. I just don't think the lemon part taste right. So I never use it but the guys I work with like to use it to cook fairly...

I was gonna make up a batch of beef jerky today using a top round roast. I've made it before but never paid attention to which way I cut it. Do any of you who make this cut it across the grain like you would when you grill, or do you want the toughness so you cut it with the grain?

Picked this up the other day off of CL. I wasn't really looking for a gasser, really more of a different colored kettle, but I check CL every day for any "webers" Found this for $125. Its in pretty good shape, thinks its an 09. It came with a full tank, a cover and a set of weber tools. The...

I hadn't used the smoker much lately. Today I decided to do some PSB and some beef ribs. This was the first cook since the smoker took flight accidentally out of my truck on the highway. I wasn't sure how she would perform, but she was up for the task I have never done beef ribs, thus the...

Trying my first pepper stout beef and have some questions. I haven't used the smoker in a while, been grilling on the performer so I decided as long as I had the 18.5 fired up, I might as well do some beef ribs as well I guess I didn't pay attention to Larry's recipe closely. I have the...

Well, all the talk and pics of fatties on here got me wanting to try one. I really enjoyed making this (the bacon weave was fun). I wasn't sure what to put in the middle but here it is....... It is currently on the Performer The weave The sausage rolled out....2 lbs of Tennessee Pride The...

So the other day I was going to cook some ribs at work. I have a cart with my smokers that I use for travel. The night before I rolled the cart into my truck and got everything ready for the next day. Both the 18.5's on the cart have clamps to hold the bottom and middle sections together and...

Well I know this has been discussed many times on here, but today I went with my girlfriend and some friends to a BBQ joint. We had been out and about all day and were hungry. My gf wanted some ribs. Anyway, we got a combo platter with ribs, butt and brisket. Everyone at the table loved the...

I hear everyone talking about tapping the bowl of the WSM to stir the ashes. Yesterday, I had to cook (2) 6lb butts for a FL/GA football party. I woke up at 0130 in a pouring rain and got the butts going. Later towards the end when I went to check my other WSM for the ribs I had on, I bumped...

I have always wanted to learn to weld. About 6 months ago I finally bought a mig welder and this was my first project. I finally put the finishing touches on it. It was made from old bed frames and wheels I had at the house already. I use 2 wooden ramps to roll it up into my truck so I can take...

Been craving some nachos lately so decided to do some today. I got a late start, but did the Weber chicken recipe pretty closely. Marinated some chicken in Pirates Gold and threw it on the grill with a red and green pepper and a piece of hickory Here are some of the other players Started...

Well I had never heard of "tri tip" before until I joined this forum. Even then I had never seen it in the stores I shop. Today I went to Whole Foods and they had some roasts. It was 8.99 lb. I don't know if that is a good price but I didn't care, I wanted one So got home and marinated it in...

Ok, so I have (2) 18.5 WSM's and a performer. A while ago before I got the performer, my buddy gave me a rotisserie setup (motor, rods, meat holders). At some point it probably belonged to a gasser. I was thinking about modifying one of the WSM's to use the rotisserie on it. It would be as...

So when I got home this morning, these were waiting for me I was trying to decide what to cook to break them in. Since its been raining every evening, I decided to do something that wouldn't take to long.... So I decided on a marinated tuna steak I had in the freezer. It came from whole...

After reading about all the great rotisserie meals on here I decided to look at getting one. The weber website says the one they sell wont fit on Performers newer than 2010 So I was wondering how to tell what year my grill is, I just bought it off of CL. And I was also wondering why it wont...

Well I went to the store to find something to grill. I decided to try some chicken patties since they looked good in other posts, so I got these Not sure if I would like them so I thought I would get a pork tenderloin, premarinated, just in case. I grabbed a peppercorn one, but apparently...
