    To Pan or Not to Pan ?

    i think alot of the reasons you see them with the pans in the competition cooking is from a clean up stand point the cookes stay alot cleaner when your not having the drippings going down into the cooker. i usually take mine to about 190 - 195 no foiling till i pull them and they are usually...

    mes controller removal

    i saw in another thread where it's recommended to remove the mes controller if the unit stays outside, when it's raining or really cold. mine is under a covered deck and i keep a cover over it as well. what is involved in taking this controller off and unhooking it,and does anyone actually do this?

    Question about cook time

    you may have answered your own question, when you said boneless.... the bone helps in the cooking process..if all the themometers are on and close this maybe your problem try a bone in and see what it takes. my two cents worth anyway.

    Offset Butt

    it'll work fine, years ago when i graduated from a bullet smoker to a chargriller ,the first one didn't have a sfb and i cooked plenty of turkeys and butts in it that way. it'll run a little hotter cause the fire and all is right there but it'll do fine.
