    Thanksgiving Ideas

    good eye on the mac and cheese.  Paired with turkey and cornbread, cant go wrong.  The filling for the ABT's were; cream cheese, cheddar cheese, diced onion, diced garlic, and "lil" smokie to top it.

    Gobble Gobble questions

    When smoking a turkey, do you all place the bird on the top or lower rack?  Also, how would you all suggest to cook something else with the bird (abt, fattie..)  Where should they go.  WSM 18.5" smoker

    I have been looking at the Maverick online today, and the reviews are kind of troubling.  If you use this one, have you had any problems with it?
