Got a Weber expandable rack coming, along with ss hooks, anyone have any experience using the WSM like a pit smoker, how much charcoal, time for ribs, etc.
 
it is a lot of fun to experiment with the hooks... i've only done chicken so far and used one chimney of charcoal and it took around an hour
 
Did you use 1 chimney total or to start the basket? The way those pit cookers work is half basket, then the chimney on top, I'll have to figure it out tomorrow, thanks for the info, how did you arrange the vents?
 
See if I understand: You have a 18" WSM and you're going to hang a rack of ribs and want to know for how long? And how much charcoal?

My first question would be, are you planning on doing a high heat cook (which is my guess) or a low heat cook (which I doubt)

You should plan on 300+ degrees and 2 hours cooking, time so load up on charcoal
 
If you have some seasoned wood, throw in some on top of the charcoal. Nothing like cooking over flame
