    Tangy Chipotle Sauce

    I use a lot of Cholula Chipotle Sauce. I buy it in the 64 oz bottle and keep a big squeeze bottle of it in the cabinet. It’s not as hot as the original Cholula and can be applied safely in large doses. It goes great straight on pulled pork, stir fry and so on. I also mix it with other...

    Registering a second-hand Genesis 1000

    On May 7th, I attempted to register a 2nd hand Genesis 1000 with Weber using the s/n under the control plate. In restrospect, I'm not sure why, just curious I guess. The response from the web site was that the s/n was invalid. So, I submitted a request to Weber using the web form. Today...

    Starting the fire without using a chimney

    [WSM 18.5] Inspired by this thread, I started my July 3rd cook without using a chimney. I lit the fire by using a Weber starter cube placed below the charcoal grate. This may not work for anyone but me; I have modified the bowl so that that ATC air enters it from directly beneath the center of...

    Slide-Aside Lid Holder?

    Anyone else try one of these with a WSM (instead of a hinge)? I bought this a while back and only used it a couple of times on my 18.5. I had to bend it some to get the lid clearance I wanted. It's a bit of weight hanging off the side so I think a latch or two between middle and bowl may be in...

    Things Ain't What They Used to Be

    I haven't cut my hair since COVID started. I was going to wait until I got a vaccine to get a hair cut. That's not going to happen. My usual crew cut is getting shaggy and its time has come. I shopped Amazon to buy a DIY hair clipper. I guess I was a little late. Many are sold out or are...

    Why the damper?

    I am once again thinking about building a HM (currently use Flameboss 300), just to wean myself from a dependence on a commercial ATC, their rising prices, and the potential instabilities that affect small companies. The last time I was close to building a HM there was no such thing as a...

    Gen 1000 manifold bracket

    Could someone post (or point to) a picture of how this thing attaches? I ordered one. Maybe it will be obvious when it shows up.

    SS grates racked in shipping (fixed)

    I've been working on a '97 Gen 1000 (BPratt, thanks for the grease tray), so I bought a pair of rcplanebuyer grates. They arrived damaged. One was pretty severely racked (~0.5 in), the other only slightly. One corner of the shipping box looked a little rough. I emailed Dave. He said he...

    Gen 1000 regulator change

    I bought a replacement. They each have pipe thread end. Check out the close-up. Will that short one work as-is?

    Flame Boss 400

    Flame Boss is introducing a new controller called the 400-WiFi. It looks like a stripped down controller with no display that is part of the blower unit itself. Everything is setup by a mobile app for iOS or Android. I hope your device works! ;) I prefer a remote controller to be able to...

    ATC Vent Mod (below the grate)

    I've been using a Flame Boss ATC for a couple of months. Like other ATCs, the standard blower mount uses an an adapter through a damper opening (daisy wheel). Because the daisy wheel opening is above the grate, I have always used some bent aluminum foil contraption to direct the incoming air...

    19lb bird - 5 hr cook

    Apple brined, air dried, stuffed the cavity with apples, oranges, rosmary and sage, iced the breast per usual. Apple smoke wood. Usually I place the bird on the top rack (18.5WSM) with a pan on the bottom rack to catch juices for gravy. This time I used a disposable roasting pan under the...

    Is there an ATC that has a differential temp feature?

    Is there an ATC that does a differential temperature cook? I'd like to be able to set the cooker temperature at a minimum, say 225F and then have it maintain a cooker-to-meat differential temperature as the meat temperature rises. I do this anyway manually to reduce the time it takes the pork...

    She Bought Short Ribs - I need a table sauce

    I haven't done short ribs yet. Last week She called me when She was at the meat counter. She: "Do you want anything"? Me: "Get some short ribs, but not the riblets they have in the case - get a four bone slab". [She talks to the butcher person] She: "He brought out a four bone rib roast...

    Baby Back Prep

    I've done maybe a dozen slabs of BB. My prep has involved removing the membrane and trimming any unwanted stuff, fat. etc., and dusting with a rub. So far, so good. One thing I have noticed while eating is additional bone material between the rib bones on one side of the slab. I don't like...

    First Butt cook or first Butt/Brisket cook?

    Starting the cook Fri night. I could do the two port butts, one on the upper, one the lower. Or I could do a butt/brisket cook. Will this work out? Heck. I guess I could even do two pork butts and a brisket. This is an 18 WSM. If I do the butt/brisket, which should go on which grate? TIA...
