[sean davis]

Hi y'all.  Been on off this site for approx 8 years, decided to finally join up.  Just graduated from a POS Char Broiler American Gourmet OS to a bigger COS by 'Oklahoma Joe,' the 

Highlander.  Have gleaned alot of great info, ideas, recipes, tips and tricks over the years.  Thanks

OH! made a fire basket.  Saw this idea for a form of Minion method burn.  Liked it and had a couple of bricks laying around. It's 2 bricks deep

Thx-

Well it went okay chicken was great, still moist smoky but clean flavor.  Ribs... aahhh, probably left 'em wrapped too long in the cooler, made a short trip after I wrapped them and stuck them in the igloo, and they stood for over two hours.  More than fall off the bone.... almost pulled baby back.  oh well, still tasty.
