    Would you buy this?

    A friend of mine has what he says is a 1st generation Smokefire EX4 even though I thought he told me it was a 2nd generation when he got it but anyway, he wants to sell it because he bought another pellet grill brand. He said he would sell it to me for $100. He said he has had some grease fire...

    PK Grill, anyone else here have one?

    I just bought a new one last month. I found out about them last year and became intrigued by them. A local Outdoor Home store stared carrying them and I broke down and bought one. I have about four or five cooks on it and really like it. It is very miserly on charcoal usage which I like and...

    Pit Barrel Cooker, has anyone ever used one?

    A guy at work was telling me about this cooker. He doesn't have one but is thinking about getting one. I went to their website and watched their video's and it has me interested. Supposedly you set the one bottom vent according to the elevation where you live and leave it. There is no top...

    Brisket on the WSM for Graduation party tonight.

    I put on about a 12lb Brisket on my 18.5 WSM this morning about 5:45am. I was going to try out the HH cook for this one but the temps are really slow to come up. I'm only at 158 degrees at the grate and about 250 at the dome using a thermometer stuck through a cork in one of the vent holes at...

    First cook on 14" WSM

    Well, today I finally got a chance to break in my new 14" WSM that I got a few weeks ago. I'm cooking two slabs of BB ribs cut in half in a weber rib rack on the top grate. The water pan is foiled with no water. I used 3 chunks of apple wood. I started with 9 lit briquettes in the middle of...

    I got a new 14.5 WSM today.

    My fiancée bought it for me for my upcoming birthday. I already have two 18.5 WSM's so I'm not new to WSM's. Are there any differences in using the smaller one vs the bigger ones? I'll probably break it in with some BB ribs next weekend. How long does a full ring of Kingsford last on this...

    I got a heck of a deal on the Weber charcoal holders today at Lowes.

    These were the 7403 ones. They were on clearance for $3 a box. I bought the last four boxes they had. Wayne

    What can you tell me about these?

    I found this miniature Weber kettle at a flea market. The color is a darker red than what appears in the picture. Wayne

    Just finished my first brisket cook and overnight cook.

    I started with a little over 10lb packer from a local grocery store. I injected it with beef broth and coated it with a glaze of mustard and some Rufus Teague meat rub on it and let it sit in the refrigerator covered for about 14 hours. We are having a get together today and supposedly around...

    Best Choice 100% Hardwood briquettes, any good for WSM?

    I was wondering if anyone has used this Charcoal in the WSM using the minion method and how did it do? I have a bunch of this stuff and will be cooking a brisket this weekend and was wondering if it will work fine for a longer burn or if I need to use Kingsford like I normally do. Thanks for...

    Looked what I picked up today.

    I found this 2007 Performer at a pawn shop today. They were asking $137.75. It had a bent handle on the lid and the lid under the handle was pushed in a little. I offered $85 and they took it. Here are some pictures of before cleaning and after. I may pick up another lid but it still...

    New Jumbo Joe.

    There doesn't seem to be many owners of this grill on here. I have not seen many posts about it. I just bought one yesterday at Walmart and was wondering how others were liking theirs? Today I bought a hinged grate for it at the local Ace Hardware. Is this grill just not that popular?

    Smoked some BB ribs yesterday.

    I decided to smoke some BB's yesterday since I'm on vacation and haven't smoked anything in awhile. I decided to cook them at a little higher heat than I have in the past to see how they would turn out. I used some Lambert's Sweet Rub O' Mine rub that I bought at Ace hardware awhile back. I...

    Preserving wood handles.

    I have a few grills and a WSM that have the original wood handles. What do you guys use to preserve these? Most of mine are in very good shape and I want to keep them that way. Thanks. Wayne

    Look what I got today.

    Someone put an ad on CL to sell this grill. It was located at a flea Market about 35 miles from me. Even though I don't need anymore grills, I saw it and had to have it. It is in very good shape and is a 1988 model though I'm not sure what this model was called. I paid $35 for it and the...

    Genesis 1000, one side colder than other.

    I have a Genesis 1000 that I bought last year off of CL. I bought all new flavorizer bars, grates, burners, and manifold for it. The side closest to the manifold gets a lot hotter than the left side of the grill. Is there a way to regulate this or is this normal? The temp difference seems to...

    Can't get temps down.

    I'm cooking two slabs of BB ribs on the WSM that I bought on CL a little while back. This is the first cook on it since I bought it. I don't think it had ever been used even though it is from the late ninties because there was no buildup on the inside at all. The bowl or middle section is...

    Just got a great CL deal on a WSM

    I was looking on the local CL Friday night and saw an ad for a WSM. It said it was like new and had only been used about three times. I could tell from the pictures that it was an older version because it had the wooden handle on the lid. I tried calling many times but got no response. I...

    Look what I found at a garage sale.

    I found this NIB Smoky Joe from 1983 at a garage sale for $5.00 Both vents are very hard to move and it was missing the hardware to attach the legs but everything else was there. Here are some pics.

    My second WSM cook is done.

    I just completed my second WSM cook since I got my 18.5" in the beginning of Feb. I cooked a couple of racks of BB ribs again. I love ribs so it was a no brainer on cooking these again. I just used a dry rub I made from a post somewhere on here. I cooked the ribs at 245-259 degrees for a...
