So I fire up my PBC ... with KBB ... fire basket almost full ,, then dump in a small chimney of lit coals .. good so far .. hang 6 trimmed racks of St.Louis Spares ... let it go for about 3 hrs ... thought it needed a bit higher temp so I stick a 1/4 inch allen wrench under the lid. good so far ... about an hour later take the lid off to probe for doness ... MY GOD ... the drippings lit and a giant A$$ flame shot up about 6 in above the top ... slam the lid dpwn ... run into the house to get a platter ... fought the flames while taking them off the rod ... singed the ribs !!!!! along with my arm hair ... WTF ???? maybe I should have hosed it down ??? Gonna try it again, though just to see... maybe not crack the lid this time..... but be ready ...
