18 OTGWSM works pretty good
« on: July 20, 2014, 06:07:15 PM »


It's been seen here before. I thought I'd give it a try because the WSM sits too low and the one touch made air control a lot easier. Ran 225-275 for 8hrs with just a little water added at 6. Wife's birthday brisket turned out really good. 3rd brisket attempt and the only success. We made brisket tacos  8)

Pretty stable. Had a full water pan and half a brisket in it. I'd be worried about running both grates tho

I like your setup.  Been thinking about something similar.  I happen to have a spare 22.5 middle ring and a 4 22.5 ketttles, 3 of which are OTGs.....so 1 of them could get tuned into a high heat WSM.  I was thinking of making new heavy duty legs to support the thing though. As per brisket - double heavy duty foil it with some stock at about 160-165f, cook it till the buger probes like hot butter the towel wrap till the internal hits about 170f and eat.  I have had success with wrapping in brown paper (my version of butchers paper) but the moistest success has been with the foil.
