    SS performer dimensions

    A CR-V. I’m pretty sure it will fit, but I’ll have my son in his car seat, so I won’t be able to put the back seats down.

    SS performer dimensions

    I found a SS performer that needs some TLC. It is over 2 hours away, so I want to make sure it fits in my suv. Can someone tell me what the dimensions are (without lid). Thanks.

    Weber Flame Gas Fireplace

    I have an opportunity to buy one of these. I've never even heard of them before, but it seems really cool and rare, which makes me want it. The guy says he has the side panels, but the top piece is missing. Anyone have any idea how hard it would be to fabricate a new top? Looks like a thin...

    Amount of charcoal for 26.75"?

    You should go for it. Then I'll know where to get a used 26 when you move up to the ranch.

    Pork Butt - SugarFree Rub

    SPOG will work on pretty much anything! I've been on the Keto diet for just over a month now and discovered Bad Byron's Butt Rub. I got a large bottle from Costco. No sugar, and it turned out to be the best pulled pork I've ever made. I also used it on chicken, and it was very good too. You...

    Barbecue myth or truth ?

    I totally agree with Allen. "Needs" is the key word. Good BBQ should have enough flavor and moisture on its own, so it doesn't need any sauce. A sauce can add or change the flavor if you want. My last pork butt was delicious on its own, but on the 2nd or 3rd day of leftovers, I wanted...

    Long Butt Cook

    You want your pit probe to be on your cooking grate, ideally a couple inches from the meat. Your grate temp might have been different than where your probe was. If it was hanging from the port, it was quite a bit closer to the coals, and right in the airflow path. You could check this by...

    Long Butt Cook

    Expect 1.5 - 2 hours per pound for pork butt. I always plan for 2 and even add a little extra. You can always wrap it in a towel and put it in a dry cooler and hold it for 4 hours. I suggest taking it over 200 for pulled pork. Those few extra degrees make it pull easily. I serve with BBQ...

    Use aluminum foil to keep the WSM racks clean?

    I put mine on my kettle while it is warming up the next time after a smoke and hit them with the grill brush.

    1st smoke (mostly success) but some basic questions

    I load the charcoal ring up to hopefully avoid the situation, but that doesn't always work out. I do #3 in Lew's response above. I put on my gloves and lift the middle section and lid off of the base. Then I knock off the ash and gather all of the remaining coals in the center of the ring. I...

    New Kettle Owner

    Hold off on the grommet until you determine you actually need one. I normally just use an instant read thermometer when using my kettle. If you do a lot of low and slow cooking on it, you might want one, but the WSM is more convenient for that most of the time. It isn't too much of a hassle...

    Storing Charcoal outside?

    I store large amounts in my shed in NC and haven't had an issue yet. Just keep it off the ground (I use bricks under the stack) and in a covered area. I use a 5 gal bucket w/ lid on my patio for the open bag that I'm using.

    Pizza Accessory

    Thanks for the input everyone. Looks like both the Pizzaque and Kettlepizza both have good reviews, so I'll keep an eye out for a deal on one of them. I've been looking for an excuse to pick up a cheap kettle that I've had my eye on, so I'll just dedicate that as the pizza kettle. The uuni...

    Pizza Accessory

    I'd like to start making pizzas on my kettle, so I'm looking for suggestions on the best pizza making accessories. Is the Gourmet BBQ System w/ pizza stone all that I need or should I go all out and get something like the kettle pizza kit? I'd like to get the Gourmet cast iron grate for...

    Where do you buy your babybacks?

    Costco for me too. All of their meat is pretty good. I just smoked some of their baby backs today

    Hi from Apex NC

    Welcome J.J. I just picked up some ribs from the Costco in Apex, and I’m smoking them right now.

    Hi from NC

    Hi everyone. I just moved to the Raleigh, North Carolina area a year ago. I lived in Wisconsin and Indiana previously. I upgraded my grilling to a Weber Kettle about 4-5 years ago. I started to get into smoking a few months ago. I got some pretty good smokes out of the kettle, but just picked...

    How old is your WSM?

    I just picked up a 18.5” that was made in 1981 according to the guy that sold it to me. It isn’t exactly pretty, but it smokes! He replaced the lower cooking grate with a kettle charcoal grate and has another grate sitting on top of the WSM charcoal grate for reinforcement. He patched a small...
