I've got my WSM "Roland" all fired up and am 90 minutes into a 5 hours smoke on some long beef ribs.
This is my second smoke on the WSM, and I was wondering how everybody shakes the ashes or rakes the coals.
Right now, I have a handy little tool I'm calling "Broken rake handle" to smack the smokers legs with.
Do the coals need to be physically agitated, or do you find smacking the legs to be sufficient.
By the way, it pouring out, and I can actually see the temperature swing up and down depending on how heavy its raining. Right now, I've dropped 5 degree with a particular heavy downpour. It Q 's...it smokes...and it give you the current weather conditions. How awesome is that?
