I want to try and cook my first pork butt in my Weber 22.5" OTG Kettle. (I've had great success, many many times, in my Mini WSM and UDS in the past.)
I keep hearing from MANY on this forum that the kettle can produce as good BBQ as a WSM, UDS, Mini WSM etc..
I'd like to know what you think is the best way to BBQ a Pork Butt on this kettle--how do you burn your charcoal?
Right now I have 2 fire bricks and the coals on one side and the meat on the other side of the bricks, with foil under what I am cooking to catch drips and to redirect airflow to the coals. But maybe I should get rid of these bricks?
Banked Minion, Fire Bricked Minion, Metal Shielded Minon, Perforated Metal Shielded Minion, Fuse/Snake Burn , Ring of Fire, and so on.. There are too many choices!
I need to go with the very best proven method so I can have success with this pork butt. (I am going to buy a Maverick 732 on Amazon today and will have in a couple days for this first cook.)
(I need details on where to set the intake vent, the exhaust vent, how large of a pile of coals or how they are positioned, etc..)
