WSM Grilling

[tommykendall]

Not sure if anyone has discussed this.... I use my WSM a lot for direct and offset grilling. I did two tri-tips last night in Bakersfield rubbed down with Gordons Grub Rub and cooked with kingsford and a nice chunk of mesquite. Farking outstanding flavor and full of juices. I just remove the center smoke chamber section and rest the upper grill grate on top of the charcoal ring. By design the lid does not fit snugly on the bottom kettle section but it does rest nicely and resembles a big farking egg. What a machine!

I've used the WSM without the water pan and cooked on the top grate - more direct heat and the "grill" taste from the fat hitting the coals underneath - I've done chicken this way a few times and it turned out great - kind of a cross between "low and slow" and grilling.

I've also grilled with it like you did a few times - it isn't a kettle but it gets the job done.

Don't dump the Bandera, I will have my wife by a house to give it a good home. (Hate to see good equipment go to waste)

At least send Bill the grates from the Dera!:biggrin:
