Alright guys! Thanks for all the responses to my questions regarding setting up the kettle to smoke. :clap2:
I picked up this sweet 22.5 Weber kettle on Craigslist yesterday. He was asking $25, but when I showed up with a $20 and a $10, he didn't have change, so he gave to me for $20. :boxing:
So, I set up to run minion method, with a couple of bricks to hold them in and provide some indirect heat.
I used up the rest of my lump to start in the chimney, and put some KB in the kettle and mixed it with applewood chunks.
While it was heating up, I rubbed one rack down with some Charleston Pig Co. rub. It smells and tastes great by itself, the first ingredient is evaporated cane juice. Should turn out great, it's my first time using it as I got it from the last trade round. The other rack I rubbed down with some SM Cherry. MMM... I love that smell. Then, sitting pretty at 265, I threw 'em on and now it's time to wait!
