Man it was awsome. You guys have made me a hero in my family's eyes in just the short amount of time Ive been hanging around you. All the time I spent reading about fire managment paid off.
I did the ole indirect thang tonight. I put a small 5" teracotta pot and my old cast iron smoker box in the middle of the fire grate. Filled them with sand. End to end they were the same length of the tenderloin. I put a row of fresh Kingsford beside the 2 sand pots. I started some Kingsford in my charcoal starter chimney and when they were ready I dumped them on the outside between the wall of the grill and the fresh charcoal.
It took an hour to get the inside temp to 180. Along the way I slathered it with a mixture of John Boy & Billy sauce, honey, and some garlic sauce. Incredible. Supper was 2 hours ago and I'm still rubbin my belly and lickin my fingers.
I'm sure this is old hat to a lot of you guys but I'm excited as all heck.
Thanks for making me a better Q'r. And I haven't even started up my Bandera yet.
