May the New Year bring many good cooks to everyone here at WSF.! I am currently in a smoking holding pattern as the jet stream has a lot of America in a deep freeze with blustery winds.Current conditions here in Virginia are -9 C with wind chill values at - 16 C....No good Mates !

Bill

No shirts for me 

Thanks

Winchester Va 22603

Merry Christmas Mate!

Any idea what shipping would be to the proper side of the pond? 

Wade,a few ideas...

Metallic duct tape- wrap on legs then reinsert

Aluminium can- cut with tin snips wrap,reinsert

Wooden dowel,broom handle etc. inserted inside legs

Epoxy

Bill

Howdy Jonty.Yet another warm,smoky welcome from across the pond is in order.

Bill

I know, I just had to pulverize your pellets 

Tut tut,no genuine Weber product? 

Yeah,it looks like the second door would come in right handy.

Marcasm,please excuse me as I am a Yank...what is that WSM looking bullet smoker?

Bill

Nice,watch the beeb whilst smoking.What brand is that strange legged Mini WSM ?

A few years ago we had a 27" (69cm) and a fortnight later had a 29" (74cm) ,the first hadn't fully melted in between either.

It's not even winter yet!And who cares about winter shminter anyway....Pour the tea kettle into a thermos(maybe add a little sump,n - sump,n),pull on a warm jacket and make some smoke roll!

Here in Va when we get our first deep snow one of my pastimes is to take a cryovac'ed rack of ribs out of the freezer.Put them in a bucket of tepid water,then dig to the smoker and picnic table first.Fire up the smoker and go about my snow removal duties for a spell -until cold or ready for a break.Come back in the house and rub a dub the ribs and warm up a bit -until I get the gumption to go back out.Put the ribs on,add wood chunks and shovel,plow and blow snow until done.Check ribs,add wood chunks and head inside to warm up again.Once warm,grab a good spicy sauce from the fridge and head back out to the smoker.Slather,slop and mop,head inside.Take some frozen corn on the cob out of freezer and get boiling while sauce sets up.Amass all plates,utensils a platter and bird seed.Head to picnic table,throw bird seed all around on top of snow.Pull ribs and VOILA! As soon as you take a bite off that first rib SHAZAM! It's a summertime picnic all over again with an interesting landscape and vibe with birds chirping all around sharing the bounty- you're a REBEL!

Now get out there and FIRE 'EM UP!

Bill

Thanks Steve,it was fun and tasty! Have about 2 Lbs (1 Kilo) vac sealed in freezer.I am a fan of the vinegar based sauce we make here in Va and the Carolinas.I'm getting it dialed in pretty good.

Beatrice arrives at the spa and starts off Saturday with a skin peel followed by a deep tissue massage and a mud pack consisting of many botanicals including onion,garlic and mustard powder to name a few.She relaxes and meditates in a completely dark sensory deprivation chamber for the overnight.Sunday brings great things for Beatrice!You see, she's been wanting to lose some weight.Her Sunday plans include a sauna treatment to include aroma therapy with essences of hickory and cherry to help her melt away the fat.Beatrice's final indulgence will be a wrap,cool down and relaxation period before her pictures from Glamour Shots are taken.

Here is a pic of Beatrice in the evening before her overnight:

Beatrice entered the sauna at 8:15 AM EST and her aroma therapy is scheduled for 9:15 AM.Here she is right before entering...

2 hours in. TBS aromatherapy well underway.

5 hrs in. Added more aromatherapy. Coming along nicely.

Beatrice had a stupendous,smashing weekend holiday at the Spa! She lost weight and got beautiful,glowing skin.She says she's most definitely going back soon!

Oh,I almost forgot! Chateau De Cochon gave her a goody bag with this wonderful house made deep skin emolient in it !

Hope you enjoyed hearing of Beatrice's adventure!

Hello William from another William and Yank (I assume you were born in Fl).I am a Virginian,you might have heard of us.We and the Carolinians try to teach the Texans how to BBQ and smoke  Make that #3 that is interested in your hot and fast brisket.Do tell!

Does that aforementioned brisket come out with a nice rosy pink colour ?

Bill

Welcome from Virginia Eddie.Sounds like you did a little studying over here!

I can't speak personally of Wade's or Steve's reputation,but from what I understand they're still allowed and welcome here stateside.

I literally had to look that up on the net to see what it meant.Here in the states it's OBO - Or Best Offer

We can buy the same model listed above here in the states for the everyday price of 75 Pounds on sale they would be 67 Pounds so after shipping you guys don't have it bad at all.Ours is better though...because it's 22-1/2" not 57 cm 

Are your Webers imported from America?

My buddy has one and we both love it.I will be building one soon probably using an inexpensive fire pit base that we have here in the states.

Bill

I guess this post should have been under reviews - oops

ovno...Is that some kind of an ovulation test?  HAH!

Yeah,I had a Limey neighbor...look at my profile!

The cheapest I've seen them is $200.00 so I snagged it.What would you guys pay in Pounds for one?

No, I do not have any pics... yet.Haven't thought about it when I fire it up.
