My first smoke - COMPLETE!!!

jerevil · Jul 4, 2014

Well, got my first smoke under my belt. 8 turkey legs and four chicken leg quarters.

My question is, I've immediately cleaned the grates on my Weber Smoky Mountain 18.5 inch after cooking.

Was this a mistake?

Cooked at 235-250 for 3 hours. Pulled at 160 internal and let rest in foil for 20 minutes. About to dig in now!

Here's some pics:

Color looks great! Nice to get that first one done. Now you can't wait to do something else, right? Some addictions can be fun.

Thanks! Of course you're right, already looking at brisket and pork loin!
