The butt cooked to an internal temp of 205F. Let it rest for an hour and pulled. The internal temp was 195 when i pulled it. Overall it was a successful smoke. Very satisfied and it tasted good

My baffle is 14" wide 12" long and extends under the first tuning plate 4 1/2".
There is a 1 1/2" gap between the baffle and the front of...

Cooking with wood is damned hard. Really have to manage the fire. Being only my second smoke with just wood I must say I'm satisfied. Next time will be only with lump.
The pork butt is still in the smoker, internal temp is 164F, smoker temp is 234F.
Nice smoke ring on the ribs. 3-1-1 method...

Here's the butt pics. The meat wasn't as tender as usual even though I cooked it to 190 internal and let it rest for an hour. I just sliced it. Next time I'll use my rub instead of commercial stuff. Could have been the meat itself?
Cooked brats and 2 fatties (1 regular and Hot) for the first time. The brats and fatties had a beautiful smoke ring. The ABT's were great and the Butt is still resting.
I cooked entirely with wood. Started a full chimney of lump and then added wood. Added wood about every 1/2 hour. Still...
I've got the hole in my firebox also. It was designed for the Diamond Fire ignitor. I think it is a log lighter. See attached pic.
The burner worked fine. Used 1/4 of a tank of propane, the outside temp was in the 30's. Temp control was great. Steady 230F. Really easy to adjust the temps.
