Grillin!

I used to be a huge fan of gas, but moved to charcoal. However, I haven't grilled a damn thing since my wife got me a smoker for Fathers Day 2 years ago. I swear I would smoke spaghetti if I could.

I've heard great things about it! It's almost a $1000.00 more here in canada!

I will gladly contribute to this thread. It's getting cold here but that doesn't matter, I love grilling when it's a little frisky outside, your beer stays cold. Also I find the aromas have a different, interesting aspect to them with the cold air.

what smoker do you have electric or oldschool?? I could use some advise as I'm in the market for one
I'm getting myself a fire pit from webber so that my guests would last longer outdoors...
You should definately look into smoking in the cold weather. And if your talking aromas try pouring some of that cold beer your drinking into a steel humidifier and let the meat have some of that winter ale...
this is what i use for that: Charcoal Companion Moistly Grilled Cast Iron Grill Humidifiers at Sur La Table

As for your tongs you can hardly go wrong with any, you could go all out and get them monogrammed or just go for any regular ones.
Also if you have a large grilling surface make sure you get yourself a pair of heat resistant mitts.. no point not being in control because of heat.

So Thanksgiving is coming up. Looks like I'm grilling the turkey this year...I've had it before, and it was FANTASTIC. Anybody have any thoughts/tips on how to make this happen in the best manner possible? It looks like I'm going to have to start the coals up, use indirect heat, and probably go through multiple rounds of coals as it sounds like the turkey will be on the grill for 3-4 hours (size pending, naturally).

What size Egg do you have? I've been looking at the large version. The XL looks too big and I'm hesitant on the large. They need to come out with a size between the two.
