Starting a 5 butt (all 8 lbs+) cook this evening on my 22-1/2. The weather looks like rain & wind with temps dropping. I may start the cook a little early to make sure everything gets done and pulled for the party tomorrow afternoon. I'm planning on putting the largest 2 butts on the bottom and...

Starting with my handle with the brass grommet stripped out I drilled thru from the WSM side with a 17/64" drill (slightly a over 1/4). From the handle side I used a flat bottom 3/8" drill and counter bored 1/8" deep. I then inserted a 1/4-20 UNC Socket Head Cap Screw x 2" long. I then put it...

Just called Weber. They told me that their 22-1/2" Charcoal grill grate will not fit the 22-1/2" WSM? Is that true?? I wanted to order a stainless steel grate for my WSM MikeZ

This past Saturday I went to open the door to add some charcoal and the handle fell apart. The brass sleeve in the plastic handle (that's pressed in) worked it's way out. I ended up having to duct tape the door on to finish the cook. Yes, Weber is sending me a new door assembly. I still think...

Any suggestions??

This Friday evening I'm smoking 8 Butts for a wedding reception on Saturday afternoon. I'm planning on having them all smoked & pulled by noon on Sat. Delivery is anytime after that. Should I just keep them warm in the oven until delivery? What temp? Should they go in the fridge? MikeZ

I'm doing a 4 butt cook this friday and I'm using my new 10 cfm fan for the first time (the one I thought was overkill for a WSM) I was going to leave the damper slide fully open until up to pit temp and then close it half way for the rest of the cook. Is this what other users do? MikeZ

This past weekend the local Farm Fresh had bone in pork butts for $.98/lb. (2) packs each butt over 8 lbs. I bought (2) of them and put them in the freezer. I wish I would have had room for more. What's the best way to thaw them? I was thinking about placing them in a cooler to thaw rather than...
