I love the responses here! Pre Maverick, I was so stressed about keeping temps as precise as possible. Then I got my ET-73, started thru-vent temps and my stress level dropped considerably. Keep the temp steady, and the meat will tell you when its done. Isnt that the BBQ paradigm?

A friend got me an early christmas present of "cherry wood chips n chunks". The wood chips are extremely small, almost to the point of sawdust. Being a wood chunk user, I am at a loss as to how to use this wood? Tinfoil? Any tips appreciated.

Hey guys, welcome to the site (or welcome back for ernest)! I am a new guy here too, but there is a plethora of info on smoking turkeys. There is even a specific forum thread called "turkey talk" for questions related to turkey preparations and smoking. I would venture to guess that 2/3 of the...

Well the tri tips turned out excellent. With that being said, i still have much to learn about oxygen control. I went inside for approximately half hour and had my temps drop down from 350-225 on me.

Thanks for all the replies! I did a tenderness test with a toothpick and it was great, but in hindsight, they didnt pull apart like I'd expected. Should also be duelly noted that these were done on an ECB. My birthday is in 3 weeks and when I told the wife I was ordering a WSM, she told me to...

I am still semi new to this barbecue thing, and have had great success with several items. Wife asked for ribs last week, so I thought it would be just like the others, research on this site, do as told, perfect bbq outcome.... wrong! She tends to lean towards the "fall off the bone" style...
