Alright, so this is my first official cook on the Phoenix. Occasion: USC vs. Cal and Hawaii vs. Fresno State. Inlaws and I love Q and college football.
Menu: 1 small butt, 2 fatties(one went to the nieghbor who's house gets most of my smoke) one whole butterflied chicken(courtesy of the virtualweberbullit), Shoyu/mayo/ sesame seed cole slaw, and a rack of ribs that went into the trash(don't ask).
A celebration of the things I love: Family, Q, beer and college football.

My plate, thats a mix of Stubs and Rooster sauce. I'm gonna fart for week now...
 
That looks great Kev!! Is that a drip pan in there? You scared to get that "pretty" looking thing dirty?:pLOL!
I think our Q-back will be out till next year!! There goes our perfect season!
 
Dang ya'll er fast!

Why loose the drip pan Brian? I only put it there because I have a tendency to leave the lid open for too long.

And DAMN did Colt take a shot or what???? I have never seen a qb get smacked like that?
 
Thats the idea of the UDS! Let the fat drip on the fire, and bathe your meat! (that sounded like it should be in woodpile!)
Yeah he did take a shot, hope our season doesn't go down the drain now... but hey 9-0 is pretty good!
 
Did they televise it on Kauai? We heard it was blacked out in Honolulu. We were so stoked to get it! This only the second game espn has shown all season, and it was done by the FSU announcers. Sucked, but we din't care.

Ya know, there was a time when all UH games were televised on espn, with Jim Leahy and that guy thats now coach of San Jose State.

Colt will be back. June just needs to tell him to stop actin the fool, runnin around like that with all the heisman bs. Just get the first down, and get your ass down!
 
How far is your lower food grate above the fire grate?
 
That looks good Single Fin. Ya gotta love the UDS:cool: By the way I like the tag on the valve. Just kidding:icon_bigsmil
 
And I didn't get a single call about using it? Our Kevs is all growed up now!!

That's FSU Football BABY! Clean hard hitting...once every 7 games thought does not help much!

Fin, what bad thing did you mistakenly spray on the ribs to ruin them? :twisted:
 
Good looking grub there Fin. Now that UDS isn't all new and shiny except for where the drip pan is...haha just joking. I gotta ask, how did the Rancher cook for ya?
 
Matt, theres 2 other holes on the sides with screw caps. I open the ball valve, and remove the 2 caps and thing gets cranked up to 350 in about 15 minutes.

Bent, when somebody said you get what you pay for they meant it brother! The ribs are the chittiest I've ever seen. Wife talked me into buyin em at Pavilions a few months ago. They were frozen, ten pounds for ten dollars. Super thin, and the only way to cook em is to over cook em. Thank god these no longer in my freezer.

Man I'm gettin chit fer dat drip pan...
 
How did the "death of an ECB" firebox work out? I just whipped one out this weekend and am kind of wondering if it needs some "donor holes" in the sides for more air
