    In the middle of first brisket smoke on WSM 18

    And I have a question. I'm trying to follow these instructions. http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/brisket4.html I didn't weigh the brisket but it's from one of our grass fed animals. I suspect it may weigh less than 10-12lbs as it came up to 170 (using maverick therm in meat and on grate) in...

    Beef Jerky

    Howdy, I have a couple questions regarding making beef jerky on the WSM. What type of meat should be used? We have the following in our deep freeze, from an animal off our place that was processed three or so months ago. We ask the butcher to keep the brisket out and any other cut they felt...

    How should I have this animal cut up?

    How should I have this animal cut up? We have one of our Holstein steers (780lb) hanging at the butchers right now that will be cut up next week after the two week hang. This particular animal is about 3 years old and has been grass fed for its entire life. Typically we just provide...

    WSM 18.5 mods

    Did some mods before putting the unit into service. Put the grommets on one grill grate support and handles on the other three grill grate supports. Had originally planned on putting a Moriarity side table into the two handles to the right of the door but have decided to wait on that for now...

    How to make this?

    Hello, I received a new wsm last year for fathers day. Life has been busy and a year later I've still not used the thing. I have some time off next month and would like to at least do one smoke on it. I would like to make this in the picture below off the Amazon site, photo from Chris...

    Steven Raichlen accessories/books?

    Local hardware store has all Raichlen accessories and books on clearance for 40% off. I assume they are clearing out inventory for end of season. Thinking about picking up a book but don't know which one would be best? I've seen many of his pbs shows and am interested in both bbq and grilling...

    Costco Meats

    I'm new to bbq/smoking and I have a new wsm 18.5 that I'm doing a few mods to before putting it into service. I have been reading forum posts and the low and slow book. I noticed costco is mentioned fairly regularly on the forum, and since my wife and I are long time costco members I'm...

    SJS from CL, can handle be installed?

    Picked up an SJS off CL for $15. Used twice then owners were informed they can't have charcoal grill at apartment. Not sure what I'm going to do with it, maybe mini smoker, chimney holder, home grill, or travel grill. I would prefer to use this one when rv'ing/camping but the lack of a locking...

    Picture of 3/8 grommet installed?

    I have a new 18.5 that I am getting ready for service. I have a maverick 732. I have a set of the 3/8 grommets on the way from cajunbandit. These are supposed to replace two of the screws on one of the grate supports. On this page, three items down. http://cajunbandit.com/wsm-parts-mods/ I had...

    Cleaning the cooking grates

    This is probably a non-issue which I'm worrying about for no good reason, but thought I'd throw it out there. I'm in the process of assembling my new 18.5 and I am struck by how light-weight it is. I am strongly contemplating the addition of casters to this unit so I can move it around my deck...

    Tongs and other bbq tools

    Curious what your most used bbq tools are, and recommendations for such. I thought I had a set of stainless bbq tools around here somewhere but can't seem to find them. They may be in the RV, in which case I should just buy another set for use at home. I was in HD yesterday and noticed they had...

    What's the 411 on fasteners used for mods?

    I'm starting to do some mods on my new 18.5 before putting it into service. Handles, grommets, lid holder, casters, handles for the lower cooking grate, etc. From reading previous threads I take it one should use stainless fasteners whenever possible? And the reason for this is because...

    Maverick 732, grommets, probe position, and burn-in of new unit

    I have a new WSM 18.5, the Maverick 732 and the 3/8" grommet set on the way and have a couple clarifying questions after reading as many threads as I could on this subject. Grommets: My understanding is these 3/8" grommets replace the upper and lower bolts on the upper and lower grate brackets...
