Hi all . Brand spanking newbie here.

Got a wsm47 delivered today and have promised a few people to do something for them this weekend.

I have found some great tips and advice on here , but would appreciate it where i can find some advice on cooking times and temperatures please.

Will start with a pork shoulder and some ribs i think.

Thankyou
