I just went to the BBQ guru website to buy a partyQ for my dad, since I got him a 14.5 not too long ago and he’s starting to really get into it, but it is listed as discontinued. That bums me out. I have used a partyQ for years in my 18; mostly for overnighters so I can get some a good nights...

I can usually find whole fresh wings at Aldi $1.49-1.99 a pound

I’ve had a partyQ for several years now. I have also modified it so that I can plug it in. I really enjoy the ability to get a nights sleep during long smokes.

Welcome Andrew! I am also in NE Ohio. I have the 18.5 WSM and love it. I also have a Party Q from BBQ Guru that I use for overnight cooks. One of the great things about the WSM is that it holds temp pretty well. Sometimes when its windy in the winter here, it's also nice to have a temp...

Pulled pork is a great way to ease yourself into long cooks. There is a lot of fat on pork shoulders and it will withstand a large temp range and still come out pretty good. I usually use a dry rub and cook it low and slow around 225 till the meat gets to 190-200. There are several people that...

I'm always looking for new recipes to use my smoked meats in. When I do a pork butt I usually make way more than needed (not that that's a problem as the leftovers are fantastic). I was just looking to find some other recipes I could add to the mix. We often use the meat in tacos and salads...

I've been asked to smoke several pork butts for a church activity, which I am all too happy to do but my work travel schedule makes it difficult. I will not be able to smoke them day of. I have time now, but I need a good way to store them for 2-3 weeks and then reheat them for the actual event...

My family (not to mention neighbors, friends, passerby, etc.) all love pulled pork so I end up making it a lot but pulling it with forks is become tedious. I have seen advertised some large wolverine claw type implements that claim to make pulling pork a breeze. Has anyone used these or have any...

Just to follow up. I tried burning a few more and had the same issue. black smoke and acrid smell. When in done with this box I'll just go back to newspaper/paper towels with a little oil sprayed on

There are no dumb questions. I did pop them out if the tray. I was surprised because I have heard good things about them but they didn't seem to be that great to me. I may have gotten a bad batch. I think I'm going to try burning a couple more from the same box by themselves and observe what...

I've never used the weber lighting cubes before today. I usually use a couple pieces of newspaper to light up my chimney. I tried the cubes this morning and was surprised that they gave off a lot of black smoke and smelled like burning plastic. My whole back yard stunk for a while. Has this been...

Thanks for the responses. I think I'll grab a terra cotta saucer. It seems like a pretty quick/cheap/easy solution. Does anyone foil the saucer or just leave it as is?

I know this has been discussed at length but I'm looking for an easy drop in replacement for a water pan. I have an 18.5 WSM and don't like how the pan sits on the charcoal if I fill it up for a long smoke. Also the more I smoke, the less convinced I am that the water is really doing much at...

Hey everyone. Just perusing the Memorial Day sales and Lowes and Home Depot both have twin packs of kingsford on sale for $9.88 starting tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll go with the CB door

I've been using my 18.5 WSM for a couple years now and love it but it doesn't seem to seal very well around the door. Makes it a little tougher to hold a consistent temp. I also just ordered the party Q and want to make sure the door is sealed up well so I'm not spinning my wheels with that...
