Great video..love my 26 Weber & you can’t go wrong with Kosmos killer bee. Wish I had bought the 26 before the 22..imo temp control on the 26 is easier & the 26 seems to be built better. Ribs looked great.
The reason the SNS does not work with the temperature gauge is that the Kettle comes with charcoal baskets and put them on either side of the kettle with the protein in the middle (indirect cooking). Then the protein is in the middle with the thermometer which should give a more accurate reading.
Grate video man ;) I just got a 26 to add to my collection and that guage is frustrating. I bought the 22 SNR and allows for a little more room on the 26.75 plus it's about $50 less and can fit my 22" as well. Kettles make awesome pork and that Kosmos is truth!
Thanks BrewCrew! Yea I really like the 26. Been using it a lot. Congrats on your purchase too. The SnS is one of the top 5 accessories and I agree, turns out killer pork! Cheers!
I just recently bought my first kettle: SNS Grills Kettle and I was able to fit 2 full racks of ribs (they were not babybacks) while using the sns…I wish they made the 26 inch as well. I bet you could fit 4 racks of ribs on that 26 (3 horizontal and maybe 1 vertical). Great video! Smoke on!
Just snagged one of these myself! I've been using the Meater thermometers because I'd like to see the internal temp of the meats, too. Also takes into account ambient temp. Worth checking out if you don't have them already.
I agree Greg, the price of the 26 is ridiculous. Way over priced. But I get the real-estate space I need for the larger cuts of meat. Right now I have a 12lb brisket on the 26 that would not fit on the 22. So I was forced to get it haha. Thanks for watching and Happy Thanksgiving!
I added a 2nd thermometer and actually it wasnt much difference in temp at all. I thought it would have been a big difference between the coal side and the smoke side. And thats without a heat barrier. Cooks alot better without the slow n sear on the 26. Been doing it on a 26 for about 7 years
I know this was posted 11 months ago but for what it's worth never use use the lid thermometer. Always get your grate level temperature from a standalone digital thermometer.
Thank you Jesse, I truly appreciate that. The Judge is more versatile due to its lower charcoal basket and rectangular shape you get more cooking space. And options. Plus the Judge is a lot funner to cook on. Congrats on yours!!
I do not use my slow n sear. I prefer to line my coals around the grill. Cant stir the coals in the slow n sear as well and the airflow isnt as good when the coals burn down and creates ash
Definitely the Judge. More cooking space and just a hell of a lot of fun to cook with. It’s one of my favorite grills of the 10 that I have. Plus the Weber 26 is way over priced.i appreciate you watching the kind words!
I’m looking to upgrade my grill! It’s an Americana charcoal grill, I’m torn between a PK 360, Weber performer or possibly a Komodo! It’s worse than picking a name out for your kids, because I don’t think the wife will let me buy another one! I like your collection!
@@bassman7496 That’s a life choice decision you have to make there! Haha..Three solid grills to choose from. If me, I pick the Kamado since I never owned one. Nor a PK for that matter. But still, I pick Komodo. Thanks for the collection compliment. It took years to break down the wife for me to get so many! Keep fighting the battle brother!
😂 that’s funny! Speaking of Komodo’s I almost bought the Akorn Komodo but then the wife bought me the Americana charcoal grill because it was cheaper for a Christmas present , and it’s on its last leg!
Hey Tru. These took aprox 5 hours. I cook between 275-290 typically. Ribs will take 4-6 hours depending on their size and thickness. Is you cook at 225 then you’re looking closer to 6 hours. Closer to 300 then closer to 4 hours. Feel free to ask me any questions you have regarding bbqing as I’ve been doing this about 20 yrs.

Thank you Badger. I agree, wish I bought this before the 22 and it is very well built. Thanks for watching! Cheers.

That makes sense. Thank you for the insight and support!!

I’ve heard nothing but good things about SNS Grills Kettle. Thanks for watching!
@@GobbaGooBBQ, yeah man, we love it! I subbed to your channel as well! Great content!
Hey Thank you for that, much appreciated!

Thanks for the tip!
Nice cook
Thank you Mike!
I have been looking at the 26 inch weber but for a 150 dollar difference you could buy 2 weber 22`s and twice the space $$
I agree Greg, the price of the 26 is ridiculous. Way over priced. But I get the real-estate space I need for the larger cuts of meat. Right now I have a 12lb brisket on the 26 that would not fit on the 22. So I was forced to get it haha. Thanks for watching and Happy Thanksgiving!
That’s right! Had to do it, no choice. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! 😆

Interesting Rob. I’ll give this a shot on the 26 as I haven’t done that yet. Thanks for the tip!
Wish they made this with the table and stand like the 22
I agree as that would be a nice feature.
I have been looking for a used 26. Can't find one anywere
It seems like not many people have a 26. Probably due to the extremely high price for it. Good luck!

Thanks for the tip 406. Yea I have a BBQ Guru and Inkbird for grill grate temp reads just didn’t feel like dealing with them. Thanks for watching.
Man your videos are great and because of your Oklahoma Joe judge I went out and bought me one. How does it compare to the judge? Is it way bigger?
Thank you Jesse, I truly appreciate that. The Judge is more versatile due to its lower charcoal basket and rectangular shape you get more cooking space. And options. Plus the Judge is a lot funner to cook on. Congrats on yours!!
I got the 26 before the 22inch and for what ever reason the coals always seem to snuff out and cool down 😐
That’s odd, I’ve never had an air flow issue. What is your setup?
The flame thrower is faster than a wax cube and chimney for sure. 🙂
Bigtime faster haha!
I do not use my slow n sear. I prefer to line my coals around the grill. Cant stir the coals in the slow n sear as well and the airflow isnt as good when the coals burn down and creates ash
I usually just give the sns a little shake to drop the ash build up. Also helps to lump instead of briquettes due to less ash.
Which do you think is a better rig? the Weber 26 or the Oklahoma Joe's Judge? Just found your channel. I enjoy your videos.
Definitely the Judge. More cooking space and just a hell of a lot of fun to cook with. It’s one of my favorite grills of the 10 that I have. Plus the Weber 26 is way over priced.i appreciate you watching the kind words!
thanks for the quick reply. Looks like I am going to buy a Judge.
@@kennethwilson4562 happy to help! Make sure you seal it with gasket if you want to use as a smoker which it kicks butt at.
Great video, what is your favorite pit?
Thank you, fav pit is either weber 26 or the Oklahoma Joe’s judge. Weber is bisexual and easy, judge is unique and versatile.

@bassman7496 Sometimes it’s better to ask for forgiveness than permission. Go get what you want! She’ll get over it.
You didn't mention the cook time on those ribs can you give me approximate time.. I'm a beginner and I really don't know..TY
