Darn good stuff and what a difference from the stores. I have one friend that refuses to eat them because she is drawn into those "Better" EB eggs and its commercial. However it does not stop her from inhaling the cakes, pies and brownies my wife makes from our free range eggs.
I had charcoal in an older GOSM, but converted it to propane. No matter what you get, they ALL burn wood.
I just found the propane easier to control and is more of a "set it and forget it" than charcoal is. Even with the conversion, I still can use charcoal in the can I place on the propane...
As long as you have the pan of water in place the only way you see spikes or fluctuations is when the pan's water is evaporating or possibly runs out. This is the benefit of sand in much colder temps. It will give you higher temps along with more constant ones and it will not run out.
Me too. No more Newspaper Sports, Weddings or Little League Photography. Moving on to landscape-nature photography also. Maybe back out to your state again in the future Red Dog. Planning a trip to Maine, Vermont and New York for this next Fall.
My opinion if pretty close to the same, but with out it, you are basically grilling. You do need that heat sink in a vertical be it water or sand or you darn well better be able to control your temps. In my old charcoal GOSM I would go up over 400º if I forgot the pan. Once in place, back down...
I know alot of chucks seem better pulled at 205º. Could have helped to go longer without wrapping. I also placed the roast in a pan with some broth and tented it instead of wrapping tight with foil.
Well around 2 1/2 hours I was done with the sliced part of the roast. Very tasty with that Raspberry/Chipolte sauce.
Let it rest for and hour and carved off a couple slices for our dinner, covered in some peppers and onions.
Served with a smoked red potato and a Beck's Sapphire beer...
