Hello from Kent, England. On my second attempt (1st time I over cooked!!) I just successfully reverse seared a few Rump Steaks. Keeping the temperature inside the hood at 225F was quite tricky on my beefeater discovery (4 burner) as you lose a lot of temp at the grill lifting the lid, but all went well this time and I think I got a thumbs up from the wife and kids for juicy consistently pink steak. I followed the pulled pork recipe a few weeks back and after 10 hours it was fantastic. Ribs I still have to master. I have a Weber & smokenator which I find quite tricky to keep at a constant temperature without constant tinkering with airflow and refuels. I'm wondering whether the slow n sear is appreciably better? Thanks for all the info it's revolutionised my approach to the bbq's...

Welcome to fun and learning! I've never tried the smokenator, but the SnS, if you follow David Parrish 's lighting instructions and vent plan, will maintain a very steady temperature.
On on the other hand, temperature swings when cooking a PB are not much of a problem as long as they don't go so high as to burn the sugar in the rub!

Welcome from Colorado! Interesting handle ... if it refers to what I think it does, I was working as a controller in Great Falls, Montana in the mid 70's when Boeing chose KGTF as one of it's favorite locations for testing the SP's crosswind landing capabilities. That was "fun" ...

Welcome to the Pit! I too have had a hard time with keeping a Weber Kettle low on the thermometer. One good thing is that It'll get easier with every cook! Keeping a log of how much charcoal you use, vent settings, and ambient temperature can help you get there quicker!

Welcome to The Pit. I have a Smokenator - somewhere. However, I have not touched it since I got the SnS. There is a world of difference in their performance. I had to tend the Smokenator constantly, but the SnS is almost set and forget for at least 6 to 8 hours. There is a learning curve, but it's not long. Once you master the SnS you will be in Heaven.
