I answer viewer questions in this Q&A Thursday Chat Vlog.
Click "Show More" below to open the description box for more info!

0:51 Could you give us some pointers on doing true Texas style Spare Ribs on the WSM?
4:20 How can I tell if my cooking wood is seasoned enough to use on my offset?
5:56 I've been toying with the idea of getting a gas grill. What are your thoughts?
7:52 Do you have any idea how to fix the YouTube videos from buffering so much?
10:10 Do you have, or have you used, an electric smoker?
11:50 Would you try anything else even if you like what you use as far as charcoal?
14:00 What type of grill/smoker do you find the hardest to use/operate?
15:49 How do you choose if you should sear first or do a reverse sear? Is there a rule of thumb that you go by?
18:10 Have you ever ate at Aaron Franklins restaurant?
20:14 What's your favorite way of making wings?
21:54 How do you "lower" the temp on a PBC (Pit Barrel Cooker) when it runs high?
24:07 do you have any plans to make fajitas using SNS griddle?
24:42 When grilling Sausage, homemade burgers or meat balls, what degree of meat to fat ratio do you believe is the way to go?
26:19 what are your thoughts about pulling smoked chicken halves before the 160-165 temp and then freezing it to use for a later cook?
27:55 I bought the Cajun Bandit stainless steel door for my WSM and it seals completely the space with middle section unlike the Weber original door, so that I have a great control of temp. Did you experience the same with yours?
29:36 I'm trying to expand my rub collection. Do you have a favorite for chicken with some heat and sweet?
31:12 Do you answer the questions in print? Like on a web page or something?
34:50 For a beginner BBQer would you recommend the WSM for ease of use vs the off-set OR should a beginner just dive right into the off-set?
36:55 I plan on getting the Cajun Bandit Rotisserie. I see I can use it with either the Weber Kettle or the WSM. Which one would you recommend I purchase knowing that it would be used primarily for rotisserie.
39:45 Would love to see you do a whole turkey on your weber performer. Any ideas or tips for the weber performer would be greatly appreciated. Also have you ever tried or heard anything about the grilleye thermometer?
41:35 Have you ever smoked a Whole Hog in the Ground?
42:11 When using wood, does it need to have a steady flame or just smolder thru out the cook?
46:09 The charcoal grills don't let enough air round my fire box what can I do?
47:50 Would you like to try some local beer brewed near me, some British brew.
48:37 I purchased a WSM 18.5 after watching your videos. I'm using Kingfords (White & Blue bag) minion method with the lit portion of coals being the opposite side of the chimney. My WSM will climb in temp or decline in temp, but won't stabilize for more than an hour. I would love to use my WSM as a set it and forget it. Please help.
52:52 Where did you get your cool looking hats from?
53:53 What can I do to make sure my brisket doesn't get too dried out?
55:22 What is the one thing that makes you mad when it comes to cooking?
