    Well two of three hit 205 and came off, resting. Last one is clinging to 194 for dear life.

    You’re right, it didn’t seem to make much of a difference. When I add a couple logs I just watch it and tinker with the air until it holds around 275, then let it burn till it gets between 225 and 250. Much easier and the results seem to be fine. That’s a load off because I used to sit there for...

    Oh yeah, they’ll be in the oven still wrapped for at least two before I pull them.

    Wrapped at 170. Bones starting to separate and probing tender. Might be able to have these for a late dinner yet.

    Right now a sheet metal special I got on sale 5 years ago at bass pro. About to upgrade to a solid cast iron offset though.

    Playing the waiting game now

    Agreed. And when I do that I burn through a massive amount of wood.

    I thought I would have to. I haven’t yet because my internal temps are almost even across all three at this point. When the cook started, the one in the middle wanted to stay around 20 degrees hotter, but as they passed 120 ish they evened out. Think I should do it anyhow?

    They’re actually within seven degrees of each other right now. 132-139 spread across the three

    She’s running nice and steady at 250 right now. I did have some wind gusts early on cause brief spikes to close to 300, but luckily I like to babysit it so I was able to knock them down by shutting the flow down a bit. Hoping they didn’t cause too much harm.

    Hoping they’re wrapped here in the next three or four hours. I actually messed up and started a little late, so it might be around nine my time before they’re finished if all goes well. I’m in alaska so it’s still only 1:45 here.

    Decided that since I have been getting pretty solid on my offset I would go for a big cook. Got 30 pounds of pork butt going today

    Pork dinner!

    We did ribs and a butt today, turned out amazing. I normally use hickory logs but had to resort to post oak, and can’t complain about the results.

    Newbie from Md. - and I sure could use help!

    Pig bark it would be cool to watch that being done. It does make sense.

    Biggest brisket yet

    I’ll have to post some more this coming weekend. Opening weekend of the football season definitely calls for some more off the smoker

    That thing is huge! I’m not sure either on your mods because I’ve never seen one that big without a fire box, but I can attest to the bigger the smoker is the easier temp regulation will be for you. I’m jealous, that looks out of my price range by a good bit.
