    Pork Butt on my new cooker

    The cooker did great. I need some work on my coal management as I think I started w/ too many lit briquettes which ignited my un-lit coals sooner than I would have liked. I was running hot for a couple hours, 275+ but considering pork butt is a somewhat forgiving meat to cook w/ I didn’t panic...

    Pork Butt on my new cooker

    Picked up a char-broil double chef water smoker last week. Got it seasoned up on Satuday and broke it in w/ a 7lb pork butt and some ABTs on Sunday. I love my smoke vault but I had a blast cooking w/ live fire. I've done a few webber kettle smokes but this was my true initiation. Used the minion...

    What im working with. "Pic heavy"

    Thanks Bronx for helping me out. Here are the mods I did this weekend. I fixed some heavy duty chicken wire on the charcoal basket to give me more room for coals. Works very well so far but I may snip the side by the door so I can access the basket easier. I also picked up an old smokey BT1...

    To foil or not to Foil

    No foil! I smoke for about 5.5-6 hours then will apply my sauce and let it go for another 45 mins or so. Total smoke time 6.5 to 7 hours. The only time I open the smoker is to shove an ABT in my mouth or add wood. Keep that baby closed.

    BBQ podcasts?

    That was a great interview! I agree w/ his take on Paul. He did seem to grow up a bit after his class w/ Johnny Trigg. And I was actually pulling for him last week in the rib cook off. Anyways I enjoy that podcast. Rempe does a good job.

    What im working with. "Pic heavy"

    Well mine arrived today w/ a big dent on the lip of the lower body and several deep paint removed scratches on the inside of the lid. So I called Bargain Outfitters, got a nice CSR and she is sending me out a new one tomorrow. And also a pre-paid shipping label send the damaged unit back. Sucks...

    Oh Noes!

    Sweet! For sure interested how this is going to work on your Char-Broil Double chef. Mine arrives tomorrow and I'm ready to get it going. So basically its a temp control right? A regulated fan to keep the temps steady?

    Parkay on ribs. A blind taste test.

    My thoughts exactly Jim. What I want to know is what the heck is that hunk of meat in between your 2 slabs?? A 10LB fatty???

    Foiling vs. Non-Foiling for Spares

    Try doing the unfoiled ribs for 7-7.5 hours. I find that these are close to fall off the bone and I think your guests will be pleased. Just keep on experimenting.
