    Getting the most out of ribs

    Thought I'd let everyone know that I just ended up going with 12 racks on the 22 WSM. I was able to feed about 4 fifths of the crowd and am proud to say that I am the new BBQ champ of my company.

    Getting the most out of ribs

    I will be in a company BBQ competition and I chose to cook ribs for the competition. I need to figure out how I can get enough ribs for many people to eat. I have thought about a couple of options, but was hoping I could get some feedback from others? I chose ribs because I feel that is my...

    How many ribs can fit in a WSM 22?

    For my son's 2nd birthday, I was able to fit 17 racks of ribs in my 22. Was tremendously proud of myself as it was my second time cooking ribs on the WSM and the ribs came out amazing. I did roll them and skewer with bamboo skewers, and made sure I had at least one inch from the sides. I...

    4 Butts

    Hi Bob, I have done pork butt three times now and each time the time in the smoker has varied. To me, your time looks pretty good, but I'd bet it will be done a little sooner. In any case, I prefer to allow plenty of room to meet my "deadline" of serving the pork by wrapping them in foil...

    22.5" and 50 people to feed

    I will be smoking for 50 people next week and the birthday boy has chosen smoked turkey. I have the 22.5" WSM, just not sure about the maximum amount of turkey I can get in this without overcooking or taking all day. Dinner is at 5, so I am thinking if I get two 18 lb turkeys in at 1, then I...

    Post Stand for Weber Genesis?

    Welding is something that I have little to no experience with. My old man just said to use the existing stand. I guess it doesn't look that bad, just a little worn. I would probably need to sand it down and repaint it, and tighten or replace some of the existing bolts Would be really cool if...

    Post Stand for Weber Genesis?

    I moved into my home 5 years ago and I was blessed with a Ducane grill that is mounted on my back patio that sits on a permanent post stand and is connected to the natural gas line. The grill wasn't well maintained when I moved in but it did the job. I have replaced many of the parts but now...

    Can't get hot enough

    Well, my Weber chimney was lent out and I haven't gotten it back yet. I used a smaller (and poorer quality) back up chimney that I use when traveling with my Smokey Joe. It holds about 70 briquettes and I mounted it over the top. That may have been the problem - not enough briquettes. But...

    Can't get hot enough

    I have the 22.5' WSM, and we decided to attempt our first turkey today. The method that I read to go by says to leave vents open and get to 325-350 for 2.5 to 3 hours. I followed the instructions with the can starter, filling it all the way and getting it white hot. Then I added more charcoal...

    First Smoke. Time to 225?

    Thanks for all the advice gents. I ended up getting another 1/4 can of briquettes going and added them (carefully, mind you) and the heat gradually made its way to a steady 218 per the thermometer. I was stressing a bit, but kept them on for a good 4.5 hours and they turned out great! I had...

    First Smoke. Time to 225?

    Hello! New WSM user here! Starting my first smoke as I type this. I have been charged with feeding 30 guests with some hickory smoked ribs, so what a great opportunity to break in my WSM 22.5? I have 17 racks stuffed in this baby. Weber rib rack on bottom and Charmaster rib rack on the...
