Just one eye round for this first go-round. Cut in half, rubbed, and was put into 2 vacuum sealer bags for about 10 days. One had a tiny air leak (getting contact with oxygen), so I ended up with one brown piece and 1 pink piece. Both passed the smell test, so I guess they're okay. Seasoned and refrigerated for 2 days. I was going to smoke yesterday, but as I mentioned in Bear's original thread, we had a heck of a storm come through. Rain, wind, and two deaths from falling trees. No place to be with a little MES30, even just sticking out of the garage.
Today was much better, though still a little windy. It's making my temps swing up and down about 12° in either direction, even with sand in the water pan.
Mailbox mod: Check! Using Pitmaster blend pellets. Don't ask me why there is an oar in the garage. I don't even have a raft. Wife & kid bring junk home from garage sales that we will never use.
TBS is too thin to see in this shot.
Looking good at the 4 hour mark.
