I built a UDS with a weber lid and need to know where you drilled your holes to pass the probe & wire to the inside of the UDS. Do you use the probes on the bottom rack or top, if you have meat on both racks? What size hole do you drill? I'm not crazy about dropping the probes through the vent...

Grilled some burgers & brats for the 1st cook on the new Weber Performer. Like the way it feels. Only problem so far is the tool hooks. They are so thick, none of my tools that I like to use fit over the jumbo plastic hook. I either need new tools or a skinnier hook. Maybe, a hook on a...

My new toy. I found it on craigslist. Came with a cover. I got it for $150. Used 4 times. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!

My son made this for his vertical smoker. He's going to work on mine this week. Cost around $4 to make plus his labor. I'm going using a weber grate for the bottom of mine.

I got tired of the wind blowing the dripping fat from my smoker all over the place. Plus I never remember to put something under the drain hole until it's too late. A soup can is not big enough. If I use a pan, then I have to clean out the pan or throw it away. I'm welding an 3/4" valve in...
