Picked up a WSM 22.5". Also have a Performer, which has done me well in the last few years, but figured I would take it up a notch or two. Smoked 6 racks for BB ribs yesterday, but didnt have the crust that I normally do. Perhaps it was because its the first time, but SMW cooked the ribs very fast and didnt have time to sauce and direct grill for final 30 minutes or so. Anyone else have that issue? Temp held steady at around 250 degrees in rainy weather, so very impressed. Sorry I dont have any pics, but more to come. Few more questions:
- seems most folks foil the water pan, is that just the bottom or the whole thing?
- using the minion method, in a 22" WSM how much unlit charcoal should I use?
Look forward to many posts.
