Weekend Cook (Food Pron and Smoker Pron)

SDAR · 10-31-2011, 01:51 PM

This is my 4th cook on my new pit. I am getting better at managing the heat. It is like my egg, once its past where you want to be...getting it down is almost impossible for quite some time.

I cooked Brisket, ribs and chicken...kind of a practice cook. In Texas, we turn in half chickens so that is why the chicken is spatched...

Nice job!!! It was hard getting past the smoker to get to the meat. Those rub look JUICY as it gets!!!

Thanks, I was really torn between the Pitmaker Vault and the Spicewines. Obviously I chose the Pitmaker. Anybody have any advise on heat control? I used the guru I bought for the egg and it helped a bunch, but It really doesn't want to run below about 275 right now at all. I tried the U shaped deal on the charcoal, but it was all lit pretty quick and ran at 300. I then lit it on the opposite side of the intake and that helped some, but still ran at the 275 I cooked at this time. I'll learn, I love reasons to practice.
