Wanted to do a hot dry run just to burn off the manufacturers hibby jibbies. Used my WSM 14.5 charcoal ring since it was late in the day.
Then I thought why waste the charcoal, let's do a few wings, no water pan. Big worm jumped to 375 in no time flat.





wings were done in 45 minutes, I foiled the water pan with ceramic briguettes in it just to test the temp. Big worm dropped to 250 and stayed there from 4:45 PM to 8:30 PM, that's when I decided to shut him down.

Here's the thing, I had all the vents wide open the whole time Big worm was running at 250. I'm guessing it 's because of the tiny charcoal ring?

Picture of charcoal after 4 hours and 30 minutes.



Foiling that water pan is going to cost a penny. That thing is humongous!! It is the same diameter as the PBC.

Tha *IS* one heck of a meat posse!

I buy my foil in the "long rolls" at Sam's-  saves me a lot. They are longer in both the width and length of foil.

Fired Big worm up using 14.5 charcoal ring at 8:36 AM. Got to 250 degrees, got the pig ribs on there:





closed two bottom vents and left the third 1/4 open. Average temp 235, never went over 250.

Used 3-2-1 method coz my family prefer fall off the bone ribs. Look how big Big Worm is. Baking sheet fits comfortably, try that on your sissy WSM 18.5 and watch it squeal....LOL!



Fixed up some Beans for a side. Never made it to plating.







Meanwhile, I had another rack going on the PBC aka Craig



For us that prefer ribs with a little bite. These where done in 3 hours, no sauce



Still had plenty of charcoal left, threw some chickens on that bad boy



an hour later



PBC runs circles around Big Worm. Next experiment, hanging ribs in WSM. Ribs come off the PBC with that "roasted" feel to it. Fanstastic

I did 7 hours average temp 235 with the WSM 14.5 charcoal ring. Ended up choking it coz it is about to rain, could have gone another 2 hours.

No issues controlling temp on Big Worm. No regrets buying 22.5 instead of 18.5.

Thank you Spuds. This is my first time doing pig ribs in the PBC as it was intended to cook. Well except for the competition briquettes. But other than that I just put them in there and let it do what it do.

Thank you Sparky! Yes I've done 1 or 3 ribs before, not as many as you have. I have this cray Cort cast iron grate on my performer, thinking I can remove the grates and use the  ring for hanging.
But you were right about the Big Nasty, more room better airflow, better cook.

Great looking ribs and chicken! What is that charcoal ring with holes in it. I like it. Is that part of the WSM?

That's the original WSM charcoal ring. It's huge, so I used the smaller one from my WSM 14.5. Wanted to see if I could hold the temperature with the small ring. Got 7 hours out of it.
