    Smoke day pork belly

    Years ago, when I first bought my WSM, my first cook was pork belly burnt ends. It was good, but I haven't done them since. My son, however, recently brought me a 4.5 lb skin on pork belly, and that's what I cooked today. I borrowed techniques from several YouTube videos, and mashed them...

    Day 2

    Okay , resting the WSM after yesterday. Today smoking some interesting "Korean BBQ Sausages" the Mrs found at [correction] the farmer's market. PK go is about the right size...using the unspent charcoal and apple wood from yesterday's rib cook on the WSM. Waiting for clean smoke.

    Baby Backs

    Usually I have done a longer cook for smoke day, and planned on brisket, but Costco was sold out. I know the family loves baby backs, so went for that...3 racks, halved, 3 halves on each grate. Normally would so this on the kettle, but hey, WSM smoke day!

    My first "invasive" WSM Mods -- Looking for advice on technique.

    Hi Folks, Well, the weather is finally nice, I'm social distancing, and getting the itch to do a few mods I've been planning to my 18" WSM. I've done a few mods to my Jumbo Joe first, to build up my confidence on a $70 grill before doing anything to my WSM, and I'm finally ready to bite the...

    Dialing in an adjustable lid thermometer to read grate temp

    I have seen post and YouTube videos where folks installed an adjustable thermometer on their lid and adjusted it to report grate level. I decided to try this on my Jumbo Joe first, before drilling on my WSM. What I have found is I can get it to match at one temperature, but that...

    Rotisserie...for the grill, or for the smoker?

    Hi Folks, I've been considering a rotisserie. I have an 18" WSM, and a 22" Kettle...which makes more sense for the rotisserie? (also a jumbo joe, but I can't imagine hauling the rotisserie around, so portability isn't a concern....unless it should be?) Thanks ahead for your thoughts!

    New Kettle Owner

    Thanks, guys! Much appreciate the sage advice! So it sounds like, when it arrives tomorrow, I'll just enjoy it 'stock' until such a time if/when I see an actual need for a mod. :) How about seasoning? Needed, not needed before cooking? Make the first cook something 'easy?" Season while...

    Weber Obsession?

    I've been using the Weber starters, but in a previous life I was a backpacker/trekker, and I made some pretty effective fire starters by soaking cotton makeup pads in parrafin. 1/8 of one of those would start my evening campfire, so should work here too. I'm just old and lazy now. :)

    New Kettle Owner

    Hi Folks, I'm Andy, I'm 52, and I've never owned a Weber Kettle...until, technically, today, although it's not in my grubby little hands just yet. I've used el-cheapo charcoal grills in my youth. When I had kids, I moved to a gas grill, and while I still have one on the deck, now that my...

    Replacement Lid, Middle Cooking Section, Firebowl?

    Thanks folks! Sorry if I didn't express myself well. I haven't actually tried any of these mods yet. This was sort of a pre-emptive "If I try and I screw up?...how much will it cost me?" ...I wanted to make sure a mistake wouldn't mean having to replace my whole WSM. ...but it sounds like...
