    Question about cc and fb opening

    Link to BBQ Pit Calculator This is all the updated information. What do you guys think? Will it proportionally look ok or do you think it will look silly? I was thinking I would attach the whole 15 inches and just put an inch or two grease bridge. Should it work ok? Thanks guys, I've been...

    Sorry about the confusion. The diameter of the tank is 24 inches. I drew up a quick sketch to try and get my point across. I apologise about it, I'm rushing and the paper is all I have in arms reach because I'm trying to respond to this before I go to sleep. Hope this helps.

    Question about cc and fb opening

    So I'm in the planning phase of my first build. I like to have a step by step plan for everything before I start or I will always miss something.

    Need help, first brisket!

    Been checking every half an hour or so with a toothpick. A couple spots are starting to get pretty tender but a few are still tough. Temp is 200 even after 13 hours. More pics next time I probe

    Need help, first brisket!

    So I just hit 190 where my probe is, should I start probe testing now? It's only been in just over 10 hours. Does that seem to short a time?
