    Hooking a 22 up to a Dolly- looking for advice

    Seems like perhaps the simplest way to move my WSM around would be to devise some way to strap it to a dolly but I think the legs may be a bit too far apart for that. Ever seen anyone do something like this? Any ideas or tips?

    Cooling Ribs before cutting

    There was a heart warming story posted recently about a father-daughter bbq team and it mentioned how he thought he had over cooked his ribs but he realized after he had boxed them up that they tightened back up as they cooled off and delivered the consistency he wanted. Recently I made a...

    Trusting Meat Temps

    Was at a competition this weekend and didn't do so hot (19th out of 37) and I ran into a situation I've never encountered before.

    New smoker, new member

    Bought a 22.5 WSM a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed my first pork shoulder. I've always been an offset man but I took some winnings from a recent BBQ contest my team did well in and bought myself a big old bullet. I feel kind of strange about it. Like I'm cheating on my old smoker or something...
