    Perfect color! I noticed you saved drippings. Did you make a gravy?

    Good idea on the chicken. Do a beer can chicken. That's a classic. The beer can doesn't really do much probably, but makes the kids laugh and looks cool.

    Off and smoking and a story

    Glad you figured it out. I see some eggs in there. I never tried that. Does the smoke flavor make it through the shell, or just have them in there for convenience?

    Add rub, let sit overnight in fridge if possible. I smoke it at 225. At that temp a rough rule of thumb is 1.5 hours/lb but it can be quite a bit more or less. You need to go by meat temp. Go to 195 or so, the bone should be really loose and want to pull right out when you tug on it, and the...

    You need to use a couple of good pit thermometers and you adjust the gaps between the plates until you find the configuration that gives the most even heat across the chamber...thus tuning plates.

    How often do you smoke?

    I smoke on my offset smoker one day on the weekend. It is a cheapy so even with a lot of mods I still need to babysit. I love the ritual though. Since I got my bge a couple years ago, I will smoke up some q a couple week nights too, since with the bbq guru it is really set and forget. I'll throw...

    I second the pork butt suggestion. Nothing like a pulled pork sandwich you made yourself, and those babies always come out good. BUT, this is important, dont listen to anyone else...use eastern nc style sauce ;) :grilling_smilie:

    Roadside BBQ stand- advice please!

    I've thought of a custom as well Gary, but I am definitely leaning towards what woundedyak is saying. Something like the southern pride spk-500. It's expensive but fully automatic so can do the overnight smokes without babysitting all night.

    Bull's Eye Texas Style Regional Barbecue Sauces

    Sometimes I make my own rubs and sauces and that is fun but nothing wrong with using the commercial stuff as well. A lot of the competitive BBQers use commercial rubs and sauces exclusively in competitions because they can be amazing. For the rubs, they can have 10 different chili powders etc in...

    Wes, I followed your smoker build through the whole thing...amazing. I have researched commercial smokers and I am leaning towards natural gas fired stick burners. The has is just to get them burning and warm, then wood only.

    How many briskets can I smoke in an MES 30 at once?

    I don't have experience with electric smokers so I am asking this question with no personal experience behind it, but as you add more meat does max temp dip? I'm not sure how hard an 800w unit works to keep up. I would say you probably can't apply the same rules on cook time as you would with a...

    Clean up

    The one advantage of fire breathing smokers. Can jack the temps after the food is off and carbonized the mess) clean up is just a grill brush. Not that I'm trying to rub it in or anything :devil:
