    Visiting Austin

    My son surprised me a few weeks ago when he said that in December this year, he would be attending an Amazon reseller event in Austin Texas. What's more, he invited me to accompany him. He was well aware of my love for traditional American BBQ since our family BBQs in England were never just...

    Why wouldn't you foil?

    I have been trying to do all my BBQ on the WSM without foil for the past few months. I have come to the conclusion that I prefer Low and Slow, 225 to 250 with water in the pan.

    Is a BBQ cover worth using

    I do wonder whether it is worth using BBQ covers every-time I take one off my WSM or Kettle I find the BBQ lids and sides covered in moisture. Surely it would be better to let the air dry things out and dispense with the covers through the winter months. What do you guys do?

    A special BBQ airshow

    It just great when everything comes together and the result can be a day to remember, it rarely happens but when it does it can be very poignant. Monday just gone was just such a day, it was Whitsun bank holiday in the UK so it was a public holiday; most people me included spent it with friends...

    Cooking directly on a wsm

    Are Heat Beads too Hot for WSM?

    I have just taken delivery of a new 181/2” WSM, on reading the instructions I noticed that Weber do not recommend the use of Heat Beads as a fuel, does anyone know why that is?

    WSM winter storage

    As winter approaches I usually move my BBQs into the shed or garage only getting them out as and when I use them. However now I have a brand new WSM I'm getting short of space. What do you guys do, leave the stuff outside all year round? Will the equipment take the weather?
