Found some matches.
For a month or so now I've been trying to bbq on my gas grill. I was using multiple smoker boxes to try and achieve that smokey flavor. I did a couple batches of ribs, a butt and a brisket. All came out edible and actually not that bad although usually dry and without much smoke flavor. I decided to step it up a bit.
On wednesday my PBC arrived. I had gone to my local butcher ahead of time and picked up some meat. Patience is not a gift of mine and I knew I'd want to cook on it asap but I also knew that meant an after work cook so I decided to try a tri tip.
brushed with olive oil and rubbed down with the beef and game rub
first time in my life actually cooking w/charcoal. ordered a Weber chimney. Surprisingly easy to get it going.
around 45 minutes in and just about done (sorry for the dark pics, didn't start cooking until 8pm)
Done! Came out really good. 2 things I'll do differently: cook it just a tad longer, it was a bit chewy and use a different rub, the beef and game was a bit salty for my liking.
As advertised, the PBC was easy to use. I set my vent to where it should be based on my elevation (~5500 ft) and it held right around 280 the whole time.
