    Propane Genius??????????

    you are right Debbie, and the easy way to find that line is to pour a cup of boiling water down the side of the tank and then feel with your finger. Where it suddenly gets cold is the top of the gas that is left. A full tank is about 30 hours, half is about 15, 1/4 is about 7.5 etc...

    First smoke

    Okay I survived my first smoke today! I went with 4 racks of Spare ribs, and of course, two fatties. Wow, I see what you mean about the fatties!
