    Put Buddy Through His Paces Today

    Invited my mom over to watch football today and decided to give Buddy a work out. First cook(lunch) was pretty simple. Just burgers and bbq wings. Only one shot of this cook, burgers on the flip and wings about to come off. Bbq sauce was homemade from scratch. Dinner was a different story...

    Buddy's first cook since the conversion

    This is my first cook w/all the mods in place on “Buddy”. My previously OTS Budlight kettle. Nothing fancy, just some taters, chicken breasts and a random piece of pork tossed in. Coals heating up in the chimney. First time using a weber chimney and it is much better than the off-brand I have...

    Budlight is no longer a OTS

    My thermo and lid holder arrived a couple days ago. Left work early to go to the doctor and got out of there early enough that I did some work on the Budlight kettle. Took a chore boy and some dish soap/water and scrubbed off the rust in the lid dings. Then I installed the thermo. Started small...

    Budlight upgrade

    Got an ash catcher assembly in the mail today. So I slapped it on and now my Budlight is somewhere between a silver and a gold. Debating on adding a thermo. Originally I didn't want to drill because it's a logo lid, but w/the dings on the rim, it's not pristine, so I may go ahead and do it. And...

    Please forgive me...I'm a bit "dulled" by hops....

    ..but I have a question that I haven't found an answer to from searches and research. Some may regard it as a stupid question(s) but as I'm not a Weber expert(my only weber experience is w/my 18.5 WSM I got a few weeks ago and so far love), and am curious, feel compelled to ask. Regarding all of...

    Smokey Mountain Lows

    I've done more than several hours of internet research regarding smokers(aside from my own experiences w/a bandera off-set). I have a Wal-Mart gift card and a generic Visa gift card I wanted to use to get a WSM from Walmart.com. For some odd reason, I can't apply the cards to the checkout...
