Was beautiful and tender and juicy. To tender but that’s another problem I will have to work on. Thing stalled on me at 195 for and hour and a half but middle was probing tough. I pulled it an hour later and proved top down and everything was like a knife through warm butter.

I have trimmed dried edgers and the other side is moist and had some visceral fat on which I cut back to get to fresh meat. It’s only the cap that has been left dry after aging. I could wipe off the rub and trim and then re-apply. Trimming just leave no fat at all.
The vortex ring is there as a...
Doing the pulled pork tomorrow and will render some fat and make pork stoke with the ribs. This will be placed under the butt to smoke and gather rendered fat and juices.
The main problem is a brisket with almost no fat cap because British butchers just cannot take simple instructions. It’s 40...

I’m going to render down some of the fat to make some liquid gold which are use...

When smoking wings I run the base vents on smoke setting and the top wide open. If I do not do this the temps shoot up to 400f. I will do this for the last 20 minutes to crisp the skin.
I have been using the kettle primarily for wings and am getting good results but I think I am getting alot of bad smoke early on. I have had some sessions when there is just a wisp of blue smoke and it’s perfect.
Lately though I am getting heavy smoke from the wood when added to the coals...
Thanks Christ.
I didn’t wrap them. That was the mistake. Also, bad smoke when choking down? I am unsure what you mean. I lay the wood on the cooking grate so it smoulders and does burn. When it was that hot I took the wood out because of the amount of smoke. Had read too much smoke is not good...
