    It's time to suck it up and learn to smoke...

    As the owner of 2 WSM's, I am a little biased. Having said that though, for the money you can't buy a better smoker than the WSM. The Brinkman you have will eventually get the job done with some modifications and a steep learning curve. Having just got back from the Jack Daniels comp I can tell...

    Just gettin started

    I really don't see anywhere in your post what it is you plan to do exactly, i.e. catering, vending, roadside sales, etc. Tri-tip and chicken both lend themselves to more direct or high heat grilling as opposed to low and slow BBQ, so that might dictate what type of "pit" you purchase. What kind...

    Frozen Butt Question

    Going through my chest freezer the other day I found a cryo pack of pork butt in the bottom that I didn't know (or remember) was there. The date on the package is February 2008. Do you think it would still be OK for use if it has been frozen that long?

    Baby Back Ribs ?

    If you can keep your temps in that range I would say 4 1/2 to 5 hours, however, my experience trying to BBQ on the kettle is that it is difficult to keep temps in that range for extended periods of time. Not saying it can't be done, just my experience. So to be on the safe side I would say 4-5...

    Getting the skin right on chicken

    On your offset you might try moving the chicken closer to the firebox..now this probably won't get you crispy skin but it should get you more "bite through" skin. I'm sure others wil chime in, but I would try this and see how it turns out. Good luck!

    Ain't It the Truth....

    Here's something to think about. I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age. A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, 'Do you think I'll live to be 80?' He asked, 'Do...
