I be bought cowboy coal 2x, and both times there was a lot of lumber. I won't use that anymore. BGE brand is awesome (apparently the premium/large prices from RO) but way too expensive. I've been using royal oak, but my local SAMs club had Vision coal at $9 for 20lb bags, so I grabbed a few...
Looking perfect so far. Thumbs Up
You have hit the stall temp. That's normal. It will start rising soon enough. Definitely post pic of the finished product!
I am a big fan of brining. I was kind of surprised that the unbrined tasted better. It was really because of this particular salty rub. Thighs come out moist on their own though. Other than the flavor of the meat, there wasn't really a difference. Then again I only brined 4 hours. Overnight...

The beer was hob nosh...my new favorite IPA! 7.3% alcohol so a stiff one too.

After about an hour on the grates, mopped...
I bought some chicken thighs today to practice competition style chicken since I WAS entered for a local BBQ contest (non sanctioned). I found out today it is cancelled bc not enough entrants. Oh well. I decided instead to see how competition thighs compare to just typical home thighs. I made 3...
Yep, true blue whisper. I can sear things just fine on my bge as well. My next purchase will be a high quality offset to replace my cheapy. If I won the lottery you can believe I would have one of those argentine grills in my backyard too tho!
Not at all Steve. I was curious bc a lot of folks don't like mesquite. I usually use a bit of that along w hickory on my pulled pork. It seems like the general feeling among people on here is that it is too strong and earthy. End of the day it's all about personal preference.
