Yeah, my wife and I had a couple of the USDA Choice ribeye steaks from there last week. They were excellent! If not the best I've ever had, they were darn close.

Last time I cooked a brisket the eatin' volunteers ended up eating all of the sliced flat and a portion of the point that I had kind of chopped/cubed. Well I vacuum packed and froze what was left of the point that was mostly cubed. I was thinking of trying to make some burnt ends out of the...

Thanks Wal-Mart!! After eating grilled and smoked BBQ at my house for years my FIL decided he wanted a grill to use at home. Well my MIL said he wanted one of those $39 charcoal grills from Wal-Mart (Char-Broil). I had already decided to buy the $79 18.5 Weber anyways. When we stopped by the...

Nice "Steak" Knife! <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Just slightly over bend the top of the door for a good fit. Start at one top corner and start bending gently in towards the other top corner holding the top edge between your palms and fingers. Move across the top edge bending little by little every inch or so until you get to the other top...

Excellent Cook Jim! Love the idea of dipping the buns in the juices. Gonna have to try that next time. BTW, I grew up in Hickory County Missouri. My Family still lives there. That smoke wood is great. Use it all the time. It's even sold in Wal-Mart around here.

I too dump the coals from the chimney when the flames are licking the top coals. I use the propane assist on my performer, but only for about five minutes or less when I see that the lower coals are starting to glow red. No sense in wasting the propane after that. As far as the charcoal...

I've found that the cooking procedure for the "Best Ribs in the Universe" from the main page works very well... Click here --> B.R.I.T.U.

Nice Cart! What's the sheet metal box for you've got in the back behind the chimney?

When I started using my WSM, I decided early on that I didn't want to babysit the smoker on an all nighter so I decided that I needed an ATC. My desired features on the ATC were: 1. The ability to control the pit temp (obviously) 2. and monitor the pit and food temp from inside my house...

+1 My FIL works on Bunn equipment and swears by them as do many restaurants. The Phase Brew makes a great cup of coffee that I've found superior to the plastic brewers that have to be replaced every other year. I love being able to program it and wake up to the smell of fresh coffee as well...

Makes sense, I figured you had a logical reason....and a good one at that.

Wow, Great ideas for milk jugs! Bob, this might be a silly question, but wouldn't it have been easier to just dump out the water? That's what I did when I had that problem once but I have plenty of places to dump it without making an eyesore of my yard. Maybe your situation is different.

That's a pretty bold statement on a highly controversial subject. I would have to disagree somewhat though. Maybe I shouldn't have used the term "lock in". I do believe that if you sear a steak first and cook it to let's say medium while cooking another steak over indirect heat without searing...

Bob, I don't like the reverse sear method nor do I understand the concept. IMO, you sear the meat to lock in the juices and get some nice caramelized grill marks. That's why it's done in the beginning. Personally, I light up the grill with one side for direct and the other side for indirect...

That sign you're standing next to doesn't say "No Fishing" does it.....

How bout' this one? I'm on the left and part of my son's head is on the right...

The method of drilling/installing bolts on the door is a great idea, but I used the same principle with a couple of self tapping sheet metal screws. Just quicker with the same results. I did drill a small pilot hole where I wanted them though. Great Idea!
