    UDS Planning Check

    The first one I had, I used a Weber lid for, so plenty of room on the top rack. The 2nd one I did, I just used a regular lid. And to be honest I don't recall what measurements I used. I smoked a lot of chicken. Measure a pork butt and space them accordingly.

    My range on my offset is usually less than 10 degrees. I have been doing it so long I just know what I need. You guys might need to experiment a bit. But for me as soon as the temp starts dropping it needs another split. You are correct you will be cooking in a range.

    bone in or boneless shoulder?

    Bone-in is my preference. And is what seems to be mostly available in my area.

    Your welcome! Practice your fire management on some chicken. Just Concentrate on a clean fire and trying to maintain temp. Good Luck with your next smoke!

    Brisket Wrap thought

    I'm not sure...My thoughts are the butcher paper lets the brisket breathe and helps retain moisture. I will be interested to see what other thoughts are.

    The 1-2 splits - I might use 1 bigger split if I got a good bed of coals. If I don't have a good bed of coals I will add 2 smaller splits. Just a judgment call.

    I don't use charcoal,I only use wood splits. But a lot of people start with a chimney getting started. When your smoking at 275 when it drops to 274 add 1-2 splits depending on your coal bed...repeat.
