What is the secret with pizza dough that makes it easy to slide from peel to the stone on the grill? I use a pre made refrigerated soft dough from Publix bakery and it is sticks to the surface of the pan when I add the sauce and toppings. Are any of you adding flour to the dough to make it...

Of my many cookbooks, this is my new favorite, for a few reasons. First, the photos of John Wayne are cool, and secondly, the recipes are simple and from my first cook, great tasting. So here is my current favorite - Tequila Lime chicken. If any of you remember Aztec Chicken from Red Lobster...

This has probably been posted numerous times, but burn times with recently purchased Kingsford is not good. I just got 9 hours with a charcoal ring full in my 18" WSM. Once upon a time, I could get 14 hours holding a 225 - 240° cook temp like I did today. I am beginning to wish there was an...

Local Walmart in upstate of South Carolina has their Weber grills marked at reduced prices. Not sure if all are doing this. Jumbo Joe is $45 (reg is $59) and Weber 22" Kettle Premium is $125 (reg is $149)

Decided to pull out one of my 11 bbq/grill books to try a new recipe for wings. I flipped open Willingham's book and decided to make his Smokin Fastball Wings recipe. Result - very flavorful wing. It's not a hot wing, not even close, but the taste profile is really good. This was also my...

Currently, my mini WSM uses the SJ Silver as the base, but I've been thinking I would like to replace it with the SJ Gold. Those of you that use the Gold for the base, how is temperature control and what's the hottest temperature you were able to maintain with it? Have any of you switched from...

I haven't smoked a whole bird in a while, so it seemed to be a good idea to do a Beer Can chicken today, especially after picking up a Weber beer can holder last week from Home Depot at 75% off. Standing in as a substitute for the beer was a Coke can with apple juice and Wild Willy's rub from...

Killed 2 birds with 1 stone today. I wanted to cook with the mini wsm since I installed a new thermometer and a 12" terra cotta platter, and try a smoked meatloaf for first time. Some of the ingredients ready for mixing - not included in the pic is the Wild Willy's Wonderful rub that I...

Big game in Clemson today with the hated South Carolina Gamecocks in town. Didn't go to the game so we hung out with friends for a home tailgate and watched on TV. Chicken is on the menu and I supplied the wings. My selection for today is wings 2 ways - Hot Wings and Mardi Gras wings. Hot...

Started off Smoke Day 2014 with smoked wings. My aim for today was to make 2 versions - a smoked hot wing and a knockoff of the Mardi Gras wings from Publix grocery stores. The smoked hot wing is a simple recipe of salt and pepper with Franks Wing Sauce applied at the end of the cook. I usually...

I just returned from a trip to KC so I had a chance to try Oklahoma Joe's BBQ and thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the sausage. One big question for the board: Where do they get their sausage, how do they smoke it and how can I get something similar to try smoking at home? I live in S.C...

Large rib cook - remove membrane? Pics added I have a very large rib cook to do, probably 70+ ribs. Typically, I remove the membrane on ribs I do for the family, however, I am not looking forward to pulling the membrane off of 70 or so baby backs for a cook today at work. How do some of you...

Need some advice on how to serve Tri-Tip for our first tailgate of the college football season next week. Cooking the Tri-Tip is not a problem, so I am looking for ideas on how to serve it. Thinking that I will grill and slice at the tailgate and serve with buttered and grilled hoagie rolls...

With college football in full swing now, I have broken out the SJP for tailgating at Clemson games. Here are a few pictures from week 1 where I used it to grill a 2 1/2 lb. tri-tip. It was a 12:30 game so I wanted to have breakfast items and then some tri tip sliders to eat just before going...

Whatever happened to Kevin "Stogie" Taylor? I have not seen a post from him in a very long time. Is he still posting here or somewhere else?

Decided to do a couple of simple pepperoni pizzas on the kettle tonight. Started with a 2/3 chimney of Kingsford. Once they were grey, they were spread evenly in the grill making a single layer of charcoal. When builidng the pizza, I lightly butter the pan and then spread the dough (Publix...

I currently own an older 22.5 Silver model with the 3 seperate bottom vents. Over time I bought a hinged grill and the charcoal baskets. I hate the mess of trying to get the ash out of the grill, so I am looking at going to a one touch system. Questions: Since I have the hinged grill and...

It's probably been aired before, but it was first time that I have seen the Weber Grill featured on Unwrapped. Only uses charcoal and they sear over 1500 deg heat. I liked the industrial size charcoal baskets that were installed in the ranch kettles. Also looked like they had charcoal grates...

A couple of questions for those of you that use the SJS for tailgating. How do you start your charcoal? I'd rather not take my charcoal chimney, so would the Weber starter cubes be a good substitute? Do any of you use a table to set it on to put it at a more comfortable grilling height...
