I haven't had any issues with not getting enough heat. This last go around, if anything, it stayed too hot for the first hour and a half.
I was able to keep the temp more steady this lat time, but I was adding unlit coals about every 1.5 - 2 hours to stay ahead of it.
How often do you add...
That's the way to go. I'm no aficionado by any stretch. The COTM club is awesome though. $20 a month and you get 4 smokes a month that are usually worth 30 to 35 bucks. Great way to try new ones. That's how I got in to smoking heavier bodied cigars.
Oh man. Tons to pick from.
How often do you smoke? You want more budget, or do you tend to smoke on rare occasions, so you don't mind spending 10 or 12 bucks on a smoke?
Gurkha makes some great medium bodied smokes. 5Vegas is a great option.
You can never go wrong with rocky patels.
How...
For sure. I didn't have any cure to use and needed to cook this thing before it went bad. Also going to a birthday party in a bit, so if everybody has a few pieces that should take care of most of it.
My wife just kind of winged it.
Cabbage
Mexicsn style Corn
Black beans
Corn and beans got some seasoning and then roasted in a pan
Mayo
Sour cream
Lime juice
Taco seasoning
Green chili's
Jalapenos

Started with my rub
So I actually had too much that I could fit on my smoker. I could technically fit it all, but I would have had too...
I don't have one of those boxes yet for the charcoal, so I built a pyramid and lit the top couple coals. Kept the smoke box vent mostly closed and temp got up to 300. Finally got down to 275 but took an hour.
Maybe I put too much coal in to begin with?
Figured I would bump this old thread instead of starting a new one. My boss bought me a Meater thermometer last week. It didn't have the block so no wifi.
I cooked a ribeye for me and the wife. Set hers to medium and threw mine on a few minutes after so mine would be closer to MR.

know somebody with tickets or be willing to pay $1k+ from a scalper. haha
With the lottery, it seems to be that the further away you live from Georgia, the better odds you have at getting tickets. I've been entering the lottery for tickets for 10+ years and never have even gotten a practice round.
I know everybody here enjoys smoking meats, but who is in to smoking Cigars?
Found any good ones lately? What's your go to? I don't smoke too often, but I do the cigar of the month club from CI.com, which helps me mix it up a good bit. Although I usually keep some good Rocky Patel, Gurkha, and...
