Smoking on Weber Genesis

[chrisf]

Hi All,

New to the forum, and super excited to explore the world of smoking.  I currently have a weber genesis and have toyed around with smoking ribs using a smoker box and some wood chips, but was only able to get around 30 min of smoke.  I just ordered the A-Maze-N Tube Smoker, due to positive reviews, hoping it will give me more smoke time.

However, the other problem I had, was I couldnt get the grill to hold <250 degrees.  I had the far left burner on the lowest setting and put the meat on the far right, but it still cooked a bit faster than I wanted, and too fast for things like brisket and pork butts.  Anyone have any tips on how to get it down lower?  Any neat tricks?

Thanks!

i finding that on a gas grill, following recipes and techniques for the 275 to 350 range is easier to cook. i have an older genesis that does ok nice even temp no wind days.

good luck and happy smoking
