My wife prefers pulled chicken so I put a few boneless, skinless thighs on the CG-
I just put them in a foil pan with SBR, they'll be an hour or so more.
The pork, I'm giving it until 3 before it comes off, temp at 200°+ in a couple of spots-
....and with more pulled pork nachos on the way.
Butt is on at 8:15 AM, cooking with Stubbs charcoal and pecan for smoke-
The Weber is cooking at around 300°-320° so we should be done around 3-3:30 and then we'll make BBQ nachos
You can use the apple wood right now since you are cutting up into chunks. I have used unseasoned apple chunks many times with good results.
Cherry I usually chunk up into the size pieces that I like to use and let season 4-8 weeks. YMMV.
The study was conducted with 1508 women who were diagnosed with breast cancer in 1996 and 1997.
It does not conclude that eating smoked or BBQed meat causes or increases the risk for breast cancer in women, only that that eating a diet "high" in smoked meat may increase mortality in women who...
I use a lot of red maple splits in the CG, they take about 6-8 months to get dry enough to burn. If you have sugar maple it will take longer because it 's density is higher than red maple.
Chunks , 2"thick X 3" long, take 6-8 weeks. YMMV.
If you put it on after work on Thursday and cook it at 300°-325° it will be done late Thursday night, depending on the size of the butt. An 8 pound butt takes me about 6-7 hours at these temps, then you pull it and get some sleep. Reheat for lunch on Friday, no fuss, no muss.
I am not a fan of the dryer vent extending the stack to grate level, I believe you need to improve air flow to increase temps and I don't see how this helps. IMHO you are better off extending the stack up on the outside by 12"-16".
If you want to keep the grate as a baffle then you should...
Very interesting reading.
My findings on the moisture content vary from that in the article though.
First let me state that I do my stick burning on a COS CharGriller.
I find that 20% moisture content is too high to produce a good cooking fire and the moisture content for a good fire varies...
