I'll admit it's a tad frigid out....51 below windchill! Had to put the mini through the ultimate cold challenge. Spatched bird @ 350

So let's break out the big guns....with a little RO lump

The dogs didn't seem to mind....didn't want to go inside

Ok, i learned a little lesson. DON'T open both vents on the mini...i had a fire and the temp shot over 600*. I closed the vents real quick and put the fire out. I then went with one side open and settled it in around 350*


She's cruising along nicely now!:becky:

Now that's a manly cook!

So don't ever open both vents or just with lump.

-51 is like being on the moon....'cept there ain't no BBQ up there....

Good luck brother, its brutal out there

Ditto on that!!!

I've been afraid to do anything and it's only (relatively speaking) been in the single digits in my area. Thinking about doing some ribs this weekend though. Some scotch and a cigar should get me through it................

never both vents open with lump and a greasy chicken! lol Maybe 1 and a partial but never both fully open

The things people will do in the name of BBQ science.

Screw Dat!
I would be inside next to a nice fire.
Although it is a bit chilly down south. 32 degrees this morning. Should be in the high teens to low 20's tonight.

A man's got to do ....what a man's got to do... to cold for me

The Mav transmitter display froze up so i had to hang it on the inside of the reflectix so it could dethaw. :shock:

You are insane (hey, you told us to). :wink:

You sir are a real man!!!

You may want to relocate to Mars. Its actually warmer...

Bloody hell that's cold!
