    Fruits of My Frustration

    You need a good batch of hot coals to run it up to 350 and hold it. Be prepared to light another chimney full and pour those on when temp starts to drop. The SnP isn't real efficient, but you can get the temp up in that thing if you pour it too it.

    Q View - Best ABT recipe in the world - QView

    Yep, ABTs are pretty much one of our favorites. Yours look very good... and I like the idea of a little seasoning sprinkled on top. Have to try that next time.

    Bacon refreeze ?

    Refreezing poultry and pork are generally no-nos. You can get away with it when using beef, but it sometimes does funny things to pork, chicken, turkey, etc.

    Cheese smoke

    More details... Average temp: 82 (just guessing, but that is a great number - some will get that) honestly... low 80s on average. It was a cool morning. Type of wood: Pecan Charcoal: Ozark Oak Lump Time: 1.5 hours The color of the cheese isn't much darker than it was originally, but judging...

    Cheese smoke

    Well, I finished my cheese. Pretty uneventful really... just folowed some of Jeff's advice. Now I see how I could possibly do this stuff in the heat of summer, with a little shade, but those 100+ days of August would be tough. Here is the cheese out of the package, cut into 1/4 pound blocks...

    Time for two butts?

    If they are in at the same time, and the temp is where you want it, you are cooking them both. Estimate time for each by individual weight... i.e. If one is 8# keep it on 12 hours, if the other is 10# keep it on for 15, or in other words 3 hours longer than the other. Again, this should just...

    Ok, well then I'm confused. But hey, I like the green.

    Green or Not?

    The greenies are premium members, and blue are standard members. I think an OTBS member gets a royal blue color, and some of them requested to stay that way even if they have a premium membership. Not certain, but that's the way it looks to me.
