Hey, welcome back to the How to Barbecue Right podcast.

I'm your host, Malcolm Reed, joined by my lovely wife, Miss Southern Shell. It's

another week in the book, Shell. It's Rye. What's popping? Rye. Pulled pork on a Weber grill.

Pulled pork on a Weber grill. Man, that was a, that takes me back to, like, cooking a butt a long time

ago before I knew what a vortex was or snake method. Before you had a smoker. Before I had a smoker. I always had a Weber kettle. That was probably if I had to, I mean, I remember my parents having this old, it wouldn't a WSM, but it was like a cheap version of a WSM, and then they had a Weber kettle. That was the two grills that I grew up

with. It was an old school kettle. I wish I still had it. Did they have that shape like a

WSM? Yeah, the smoker did and they bought it because my dad wanted to smoke a turkey, I think,

won Thanksgiving. And I wish I could remember the brand name. It's probably like charbroil or something.

Yeah, it didn't work.

It was like you were supposed to smoke the turkey for 24 hours and it had this water pan that you had, you know, it was the old school one. Yeah. I had two pans. One was like an ash pan. There was a water pan above it. But if I remember right, the ash pan didn't have a grate. you're supposed to put charcoal in there and had a little trapdoor for you to add more charcoal and wood.

And then you're supposed to smoke this turkey for 24 hours. I remember those. I remember the little trap door. But it was real small. Yeah, it was a real small one. Yeah. In fact, when we were cooking Lakeland Funfest years ago,

Jim Haney was cooking with us.

He had brought one of those because he did wings on it. When we were cooking Lakeland Fun Fest years ago, and Jim Haney was cooking with us.

He had brought one of those because he did wings on it.

It was like one of those old school ones before the WSM.

Weber may have had the WSM back then, but I don't remember.

Nobody, we didn't have one.

We had whatever Walmart had.

It's probably where my, or Kmart, it's probably where my dad got it. And it must have been like a charbroil or whatever. I don't know. I'll have to ask him to say, he probably don't remember. I don't think it lasted very long. It rusted to pieces. It was a thin gauge metal. But the Weber kettle hung in there. that was what we that was what we cooked the family steaks on.
