Time for the initial cook on my recently finished build, aka The Beast! On the menu today is a 14lb brisket, two 8-10lb butts, 5 racks of baby backs, some cowboys beans, smoked mac & cheese, and a potato casserole type of concoction.

The Beast Eats Only Wood, took about 75 minutes to get to temp this morning and that was with my flame thrower deciding it wasn't going to work so I had to do it the old fashion way by getting some lump going and then adding small splits.
Two Butts & A Brisket, don't take up very much space on this thing. Probably hard to tell but there is still room for another brisket and two more butts, in the area that these are sitting.
Temp Gauges, seems to be pretty consistent, showing an 8-10 degree difference between back (warmer) and front (cooler), I can live with that.
Ribs go on at about 1, all the sides will go on about 230.
