Now where is that teddy bear at....snooze.
 
WAKE UP!!!! And take more pics - hope that butt is coolered by now....
 
I am not a night person. Luckily my son works nights which helps with an all night cook
 
Looks good! All nighters to me are a lot of fun, smelling the smoke in the peace of the night is really cool.

All nighters with a BGE means stabilizing the temp, putting on the butts, make sure temp stabilizes and then go to bed!:biggrin: The smell of my pillow!!!:mrgreen::biggrin:
Large BGEs cook without any fussing with for over 20 hours on a full firebox of lump. Life of an Egghead is very good!:cool::cool::icon_cool
 
Looking good so far.

(Except that first picture looks like something out of ALIEN)
 
Can't wait to see the finished product! I like the late nights with no one around and the quiet night air. Now WAKE UP and post some pron!

Total cook time: 12 hours approximately.
Cleaning up (big time mess)
Daughter visiting... doing dishes... priceless!
 
Nicee job, seems like last night was the night for "first timers" as I had my own as well. I could never fit all that on my WSM. Looks good.
 
Good job brother! I love stick burners. Of course, sleep isn't a big concern for me. I also like the fact that I mastered an art tending fire. It's an art that some people don't want to learn or have but like sleep better.
 
Looks great Bandit - congrats on your first over nighter. Closest we have come is getting up 3 am - once....
