Windy day
Wind gusts up to 32 mph. Constant at 15-18.
So help me BBQgod! Had the smoker getting up to temp while I was inside touching up 20 lbs of butt. Just get out there to slap the butts on there, WHAM! My lid flew off and my drum is a blazing cannon. Luckily I was out there to address this problem very quickly. Hope this works! 20130406_054839-1.jpg Last edited by Mart; 04-06-2013 at 06:30 AM..

The people hauler(Minivan) was moved accordingly to help as a wind break.
The only place for the smoker is in driveway or back deck. Both of which face east and west. The sides are on like what seems a 50 degree decline. Wind is from the south. Thanks a lot bludawg for sending the wind this way! Temps were alittle rough but I feel I was able to control it. The results look amazazing! Foiled now..birthday party starts at 5. Theres a jumphouse(Hope wind dies down like its supposed to) and a facepainter/balloon maker. Come on over, teehee!20130406_140337.jpg |
