I got complacent last night and suffered a 12 hour set back for it. I started three pounds of unsalted sweet cream butter in my 44 about 7 PM. Got a good ember going in the AMNPS, shut the door and went to bed.

Went out to check on it this morning and found the ember died within a half inch of where I left it. Had I done my usual routine of checking it a coupla' times before I left it alone, I would have discovered that and not had a bad morning.

Standing by for "YOU BIG DUMMY!".....
 
It happens. If stuff didn't go wrong...There would be fewer posts to read. (Whisper) And less to giggle about...JJ

Oh yes. Happens from time to time. And as much as we love them they deserve attention early on in the smoke. B

You sound like Fred Sanford.  Look on the bright side:  at least you woke up with a doused fire instead of Aunt Esther....
