    Stalled...to death! :(

    I had 3 probes to start.. one in the flat, one in the tip, and one on the lower grate. Once I hit the stall, I reinserted the probe into the flat after I wrapped it. I did not put a probe in the tip after I put it in a covered foil pan with broth. I think I might be running too cool. I stay...

    Stalled...to death! :(

    Thanks for the reply! I added 1 (one) 15oz can to a foil pan with the tip only. The flat I wrapped in butcher paper. I did not heat the broth up first, but will do so next time. That's something I hadn't considered, thanks for the idea. The tip was halfway decent. I didn't have a probe in it...

    Howdy from 5600 feet!

    Hi all!  Name is Dave, I'm more of a homebrewer, but I dabble in smoking now and then. I have a nice Weber Smokey Mountain 18", and a Primo XL, the latter I use constantly and with great results!  Getting the hang of the Weber too. Compared to the several R2D2-looking Brinkman smokers that I've...
