Ok guys, so i had my first cook on the uds, really my firstsmoke ever and i have some questions for you all. 1. The food came out tasting ok, maybe just a little smokey. But a couple hours later i was burping up a terrible smokey flavor. Is this from the food, or from standing next to the...

Hey guys, i have a question about this stubbs stuff. I hear alot of people are using it and i can get it localy at Lowes. On the bag is say all natural. Does that mean its just like lump, but in briquette form, or is it still like other charcoals that are packed together with sawdust and...

Hey guys, can you smoke a ham? Ive always thought about how good a nice smokey ham would taste comming off a smoker, but i never really see anyone posting here about smokin' a whole ham. Why is that? Is this a piece thats better off left in the oven?

Is this even possible? For any of you that are using this setup how did you get the lid off, and what are you using as a lid now? Will any type of lid (like a kingsford) fit right on top without any modification? I hope someone can chime in on this, as i have just found a source of 55 gallon...

Ok guys, so here is the story. I finally convinced my mother in law that she should get a 22" weber kettle instead of spending $100 on a cheap gas grill that will fall apart in a year. This is fine because she will never use either grill herself, but wants me to cook when she has everyone...

Ok, so i finally took the plunge and got me and chimney starter and it works great! I really think it does a great job when we are at a picnic, or in the park. But, when im trying to cook something up here at the apartment, it creates way too much smoke from the paper used to get it lighted. We...

Hey guys, i just got a little 14" smokey joe weber kettle. I know its harder to control heat and whatnot with a small grill like this, but im trying to figure out what these vents do, and in what combination i should use them. It of course has an adjustable vent on the bottom and on the lid...
