Is anybody else out there inexplicably drawn to this Youtube channel? Far as I can tell, these videos parody the rest of the world's idea of American food culture (i.e. big, over-the-top, more-is-more, freedom, Amurica, etc. . .) I guarantee you, not understanding a word of German makes the...

For my parents' Christmas gift this year, I decided to make a version of bacon originating from my paternal grandparents' home province of Hunan, China. There are a lot of parallels between the processes of making Hunan bacon and American bacon, but the taste and application of the final product...

Anyone know of the best place in town to watch UFC pay-per-view events? I'm looking for a sports bar that's hosting UFC 194 on December 12th. Google turned up Southside Pizza and Buffalo Wild Wings (unconfirmed), but I don't know if there are other places that have big screens and good food.

I hope everyone had a delicious Thanksgiving holiday. I only had to cook for two this year (including myself), but you wouldn't be able to tell from the quantity of food. Soft dinner rolls with barley malt syrup proofing: 15 lb dry brined and smoked turkey: About 1.5 hrs into the cook, the...

After doing some research on the forum, I decided to add two additional lid vents to the 22.5'' WSM. I used a piece of string, a "protractor" and masking tape to figure out vent placement, with the center of the factory damper as the reference point: It turns out that the holes in the...

There's a 20% off deal at the-cover-store.com right now on their Covermates Ultima products. I ordered the 29'' diameter cover for my 22.5'' WSM because the stock vinyl cover won't fit with the Unknown BBQ hinge and extra handles installed. If you sign up for their newsletter, I think you can...

For my second cook on the WSM, smoked a brisket roughly according to Aaron Franklin's instructions in his book "Franklin Barbecue: A Meat Smoking Manifesto." Here's the overview: Meat: USDA Prime packer brisket, 14.87 lbs wet-aged in cryovac packaging for 3 weeks. Trimmed weight 11.33 lbs Prep...

I'm finally done with the first round of mods on my new 22.5'' WSM. Its name is Drogon, after a dragon character in George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" series that's black with red accents. The aluminum dampers, legs, and bolts are all painted with black rustoleum hi-temp ultra grill...

Just curious about the "vanity mods" people have made to their pet Webers. To clarify, these are mods undertaken with full knowledge that they have nothing to do with function and everything to do with appearance, although convenient secondary benefits may result. I'm busy gussying up a Cajun...

Hi there! After using an 18.5'' OTS (R.I.P.) and a 22.5'' OTG for barbecue, I got tired of babysitting charcoal snakes, unclogging vents and fighting uneven direct heat, so I finally bought a 22.5'' WSM. I'm looking forward to smoking some yummy meat, as well as all the inevitable trial and...

Fedex just dropped off my 22.5'' WSM this morning. The center section was out of round, and the lid had scuff marks on the porcelain finish, so Weber is sending out replacements for those two parts (minus handles, thermometer, and access door). Anyone out there have ideas for how I can make...
