Hello all - I'm going to make some Brisket for a fall party that I co-host with my neighbor. But, it's a party where people will be eating over the span of a couple hours. So, I don't see that I can slice a brisket as per normal, and serve it up that way. I want to be able to set a big pan...

Hello all - I've smoked many things on my WSM and Kettle/Performer, but hadn't ever done a brisket. Did my first brisket last weekend and came away not knowing how to improve: Setup: 18.5" Performer Kettle. Used bricks to keep heat indirect. 18lb brisket (large, I know). Don't know that...

Need some help... A friend of ours hosts a fall party where everyone brings a "fall-ish" dish to share and everyone votes on winners, etc. Lots of pumpkin dishes obviously, lots of desserts, soups, chili, etc. I thought about making some Ribs with some sort of Fall recipe - Apple Cinnamon...

Hello all - hoping someone can help me out. At one time I got a honey mustard glaze recipe from here. It was pretty basic. I think it included a basic Yellow Mustard, brown sugar, and vinegar. Might have been something else too - but it wasn't complicated. Anyone have that or something...

Hello all - EDITED - Thanks for your comments, I decided on a variety of apps instead of Brisket. Posted a new question below... On the menu: Bacon Wrapped NY Steak Cubes Bacon Wrapped Chicken Bites Stuffed Jalapeno's I decided to do this because I can't screw it up. How long do you guys...

Question - I was setting up my new performer tonight, and when installing the hose to the kettle, I had a question. I followed instructions and even looked up a video on Youtube, but can't figure out why it's okay that there is a gap in the steel tube where the gas would flow? I've attached a...

Here's my issue: I'm a former WSM owner and gas griller, who needs a new grill. My old gasser is done. I'm considering a Performer Platinum, OTG 26", and a regular Gas Grill (Weber out of my price range to get the space I need). I'm leaning toward the performer platinum because: 1. Often...

I am making a couple of butts this weekend. The last time I made "Danny's Mustard Glaze" as a sauce for the sandwiches, and I loved it. I wanted to also make another sauce that isn't mustard based, whether it's a homemade BBQ, I've seen referenced the "carolina red" sauce, etc. What's your...

I have a bunch of guys coming over Saturday night to watch some college football and play some cards. I'm somewhat of a newbie, I've done pulled pork twice and ribs twice, never both. Here's what I have: 2 smallish butts (in the packaging, they are 7 pounds each, after trimming maybe 6?) 3...

I bought a used 18.5 WSM on craigslist, and cleaned it a little over the weekend. I didn’t completely scour it so it’s like new, but I wanted some of the thick buildup off, especially on the lid. You can see the before and after pics below. Sorry that I have a lot of questions, but I truly am...

Picking up my WSM today. Can't decide where it should reside: back porch or garage. When you smoke (for instance an overnight butt), do you always smoke outside? Am I wrong to think its a fire safety issue to smoke it overnight in the garage? For that reason, I'm thinking it will have to go...

I am a newb, considering buying a WSM tomorrow. I found it used, on Craigslist. My question is: is there anything in particular that I should be looking at to make sure that even though it is used it is still going to smoke just like all of yours will? The guy said his wife finally just put...
