Just got my PBC today :)


Sorry that the thread went the way it did, but that is a whole nother story. How did it end up turning out? We wanna know!

Flavor was good, just overcooked a slight bit. When I checked with the thermapen at bout hour and a half it was 180 (in the breast), so I pulled. I had several distractions going on though. I'll do a couple more this week when I have a little more time.

I go by this by the rule for turkey, but it also applies to chicken too. I printed it out and if you go by the temp and pulling recommendations on it, they work very nicely for chicken too!

I know what you mean about those distractions! I have two distractions of my own!

So do these smokers naturally run hot?

A pitmaster knows how to make anything run hot.. er... properly. Whether it is a hole in the ground, Jambo, Bandera, or UDS.

Are you starting it by the manufacturer recommendations? I've got one on the way and would like to know if I really need to buy some starter fluid.

Second time I used it I only lit 10-12 briquettes and it worked a lot better. No I didn't use lighter fluid, I used a paper towel with vegetable oil and the chimney upside down. I Let them get good and lit and dumped into the basket and I was off.

Comp briquettes still ran a little hot 325ish but I was using the grid with no rebar so more draft.

I'd use the weber firestarters, or make your own. I make mine because I use soy wax and don't want paraffin wax inside it.
