I've started my chimney using numerous methods from sheets of newspaper to paper towels sprayed with Pam. They all work some better than others. I have found a way that includes pig by products and I consider recycling which makes me happy. I have bacon at least once a week. The bacon grease...

I have a love/hate relationship with Kingsford in my WSM. I love it because it is always dependable (unless the bag is wet!). I hate it because: It won't burn as long as I would like It fills the WSM with ashes that cover the vents Is a pain to clean up So off and on over the years I have...

Yesterday I had an opportunity to try a little experiment. I was cooking ribs for a gathering of adult leaders for our Cub Scout Pack. I had volunteered to cook the ribs. Now I have my preference for ribs, and I have read the pros and cons on this and other forums as to which is better...

Tomorrow night I will cook for the first time two butts and a 12 pound brisket on the WSM. I've never done both of these together so would not mind a few pointers. I plan on starting both at midnight tomorrow. Butts on top, brisket on the bottom fat side down. I will pull the brisket when it...

....why your Video Library recipe's on Weber Nation are not posted on the site in the recipe folders. I get them on an email announcing the new video (which I love to watch), but if I don't save the email then the exact ingredients are lost. Thanks!

Late last summer I received an email from Weber asking if I would participate in a survey for a new Weber cookbook. I obliged and filled out the survey. About three months later they followed up with an additional survey. Again I obliged. A week ago they sent me a new copy of the cookbook...

A acquaintance of mine has come into a very large amount of ornamental cherry wood from a neighbor who lost the tree in a windstorm. Question: Is this cherry wood of the same quality of wood from a fruit bearing cherry tree for smoking purposes?

I take my dog for a walk every day. As I walk I gaze at 100 foot tall white oaks everywhere. Branches fall off that when sawed make perfect chunks for smoking. Oak Oak everywhere. And some Beech. But no Apple. No Cherry. No Pecan. So I was wondering if somewhere else in America another...

You can buy a precooked ham in a store. But what cut is this ham from the pig, and can you buy this cut uncooked to use it in the WSM? Has anybody done this? I liked the precooked hams, but I think the same ham would be awesome in the WSM.

I normally use boneless butts, but my neighbor asked me to cook a couple of butts for a party of his. He brought home cryovac packages of bone in shoulder butts. I don't think this will be an issue but I wanted to check and see if I needed to be careful about anything in particular. I trimmed...

I am planning on cooking 4 pork butts at a Cub Scout family campout. My question is will it adverserly affect the butts if I trim and season the butts 48 hours out? I have a lot to do to get ready for this campout and time is short. I want to spread the work load out if I can. Thanks!

Ever have one of those smok'n days when the coals just don't seem to cooperate? I bought this initially to blow the ash's off of my Dutch Ovens, but have also used it to fast start my coals. Yesterday I used the blower while cooking my BRITU ribs. After dumping the 2nd chimney of coals on top...

I just got purchased this Steven Raichlen Ultimate Rib Rack from Amazon.com. It was back ordered for two months, and now they don't list it. I did find the following link on BB&B: http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=13779570 Have not used it yet but it look very well...

Yesterday I picked up a fresh piece of Coho Salmon (not farm raised). Weighs about two pounds. Any ideas on how to smoke this without drying it out too much?
