I'm making sauteed mushrooms for the TT.

Roasted potatoes, carrots, peppers, tomatoes and zucchini as a side, green salad, and stuffed mushrooms to start.

In a hurry? try Neanderthal style. A few minutes over hot lump charcoal each side , then on to the smoker . Of course after a nice rub and some wine! this is now my go to way for TT. It gives such a great seared flavor to the meat I cannot describe. Then the Cherry wood mix, it is awesome! I hope your TT turned out great!

Does it hurt the ability for the meat to take on smoke to sear it before smoking?

Turick..
Not as I have noticed. It only on the hot amber roughly 1-2 minutes a side. Still plenty of area for the smoke. And with it being bbq to nice pink inside about another 2 hours is all it has needed. The taste is fenomenal!
