    Portions...

    How many pounds of raw pork butt do I need to smoke for 25 adults.  All of them are pretty "healthy" eaters...  I'll be serving pulled pork sandwiches, Dutch's beans, potato salad, and coleslaw.

    Q-View of Saturday Ribs

    Just a short Q-view of a small rib smoke this weekend.  St. Louis style rubbed with an eastern carolina rub wrapped for 6 hours, then sprinkled with dark brown sugar.  Used the 3-2-1 method while spritzing with Caption Morgans and apple juice.  No sauce on the ribs.  As always, Dutch's "wicked"...

    ECB Water Pan

    Do I need to always use the water pan? I'm going to do the mod to raise the lower cooking grate so the temps between the two grid are closer. I still feel the bottom grid will be lower. Any thoughts on this subject?

    Howdy...

    Not a total newbie, but have been lurkin' here for a while. Started this 7 lb butt at 6:30 this morning using a modified ECB. Raised the grate, added the temp gauge on top, and can control airflow from the bottom. Cooked a little faster that I figured on by an hour. It's in the cooler now...

    Quick Question

    How long can I hold a butt wrapped in foil and towels in a cooler before I have to serve it? Looks like I overestimated my time by about an hour.
