Started smoking in Aug 2025. First smoker is a Weber Searwood. I purchased a ThermoWorks Smoke to get a more accurate temperature and the pro-series needle probe. I also have a Weber grilling basket, Weber grill brush, and the Grillart steambrush. I've tried all sorts of pellets and wood flavors and my family mainly likes the Traeger signature blend. I have a meat injector and shears for poultry.
I also recently purchased a new 2010 used Weber Kettle Performer. Just got a cover for it. I bought the ThermoWorks RFX with 1 wireless probe, the SnS and DnG to spruce up the grill. I have not cooked on it yet. I cut a hole and installed the ThermoWorks billows. I did buy 4 bags of the B&B charcoal briquettes.
All my cooking has been on the Searwood. I absolutely love cooking Pork Shoulder, chicken wings, chicken breasts and steak. I won first place in my church chili cookoff (I bragged to everyone about it) and I really enjoyed the chili (and I don't really like chili). I really enjoyed Moink balls. I like cooking ribs, chicken breasts, and chicken legs with white sauce.
I look forward to cooking pork burnt ends, smoked turkey for Thanksgiving, and maybe even a brisket.
I'm still trying to determine rubs my wife will really enjoy. I love the rubs from the website, but my wife just wants some rubs that will bring out the meat flavor so she can taste the meat. I'm seeking simple rubs for chicken breasts and steaks.
I love soda and especially Dr. Pepper. I don't drink alcohol.
I live near Boise, ID. I've been married for 25 years and I have 5 kids. I'm a second career dentist.

Tell your neighbors wife, the grass isn't greener on the other side, but the ribs sure are better.Last edited by texastweeter; April 1, 2026, 10:58 AM.

Now that one could very well be true…
Years ago I made some ribs for friends…and my friend’s wife was getting quite giddy eating them. “OMG these are the best ribs that I’ve ever had.” ‘OMG these are great!”
It went on like that for a while and then she looked at me and said, “OMG, don’t you ever tell my husband I said that! His are good but these are unbelievable.” LOL

Gear: 26" Weber Kettle and Pit Barrel Cooker
Accessories: Spider Venom fan, and SnS Temp probes.
I enjoy cooking ribs (pork or beef), pork belly, brisket, burgers, ribeyes, chicken (usually boneless/skinless thighs), and skirt steak for carne asada.
Beverages - Alcohol isn't my jam.

Tired of learning from AI yet? - Amazingribs.com
