    Pork tenderloin

    Pork tenderloin has to be one of my favorite easy cooks. Good weeknight meal too. I've done them a few ways, grilled direct, grilled indirect, smoked, and on a rotisserie. I've decided I like grilling indirect best, and I've found it's really important to make sure you don't over cook it...

    Last smoke of the year

    With a busy schedule and some travel coming up this was our last weekend for low and slow cooking for the year. Smoked a rack of baby backs using the 3-2-1 method. As much as I love a hands off style to smoking (put the meat on and then don't touch it till it's ready), the 3-2-1 just flat out...

    1st Vortex Wings, Timing Issues

    Used my DIY vortex last night for the first time on some wings. Going into it I wasn't sure how long they would take, looking around I seemed to find numbers ranging from 40mins to 1hr40mins, both of which seemed too long to me since it would be at high heat. Here's how it went. Set up: Lump...

    Pork tenderloin on kettle rotisserie

    2nd time doing this cook, but didn't overcook it this time, and had the coals off to the side instead of directly under the meat. Coal placement doesn't matter much with this cook I think, the meat is so lean it's not really dripping much, if at all. The single set of prongs, even though...

    Normal air leak?

    I'm still pretty new to the WSM (18"), only used it a handful of times now, but I'm not new to smoking. Yesterday I put half a rack of ribs on at 12:30 in the afternoon, and it held pretty rock steady temp around 230-240 (only one bottom vent open ~1/8", top vent open about the same), I didn't...

    No more counterweight with rotisserie?

    Didn't the kettle rotisserie used to come with a counter weight that you attach to the handle? I just got one, and there was no counterweight, and no counterweight shown or mentioned anywhere in the manual either.

    Adding handle to the lid

    Hey guys and gals. I've got one of the Unknown BBQ hinges ordered for my 18" WSM, and now I'm looking to add a handle to the lid. My lid only has the handle on the very top, I'd like to add one to the front, seems to make more sense once the hinge is installed. My current plan is to fab up...

    Charcoal ring for lump

    I'm coming from the Big Green Egg, which used lump, and had a 20+hr burn time on low and slow cooks. I really like the hands off approach, and not needing to reload with fuel, no worries with getting it going and then going to bed, or off to the movies, or whatever. So when I picked up an 18"...
