Found a new Lump

[clifish]

I have one of theses stores about 20 minutes from me, might have to check it out. Never used lump in my MB800 gravity feed.

I never liked any lump I had ever tried before.
This stuff has impressed me.

4 hours now, still going.

I took these pics at the very start for a sense of how much lump I used.
That's the bottom of my 18" Weber Smokey Mountain.




^ That's my small chimney.

Well, 4.5#'s of this lump lasted 8 hours in my WSM @ 225 deg.

Amazing.

Seeing that title, my first thought was a health condition.

Filled up the regular chimney, about 2.5#'s or so.
3 hours @ 310 Deg, then slowly fell to 220 Deg over the next 2 hours.

I'll use about 2#'s this afternoon when I cook a whole chicken.
Should be perfect.

Didn't cook the chicken yesterday.

For some reason, I bought a 3# beef rib (looks just like a St. Louis pork rib 'cept bigger)
What a waste of time and money that turned out to be.
Basically nothing but fat and grissle. Sure looked good before I cooked it.
Never again.

Anyways, I worked on adapting my Weber rotisserie to my 18" Weber Smokey Mountain.
Turned out pretty good. (pics later)

So, the whole chicken will be cooked on the WSM today using 2.5#'s of the new lump.

Thanks for the heads up. Been looking for cheap neutral lump to run in my TMG Dumpster for direct heat cooks, went into the local Ollie’s and picked up several bags yesterday.

Let us know what you think of it.

Will do. Think I’m going to do a cook tonight. If I like it I’m going back and buying the rest of the pallet. Takes a lot of fuel to cook on the Dumpster and I don’t always want to burn wood. What I really need is a burndown barrel but haven’t gotten that far yet.

The whole chicken cooked using this lump was declared delicious by my wife. :)

I have bought a total of 17 bags of this lump.
Should last me a week or two. :)

My local one had no lump at all
