Very Satisfying!

Just completed my initial smoke with the CyberQ (http://store.thebbqguru.com/weborderentry/CyberQ WiFi) on my Pitmaker Safe.

Did a 12 pound brisket at 250 in a little over 6 1/2 hours to temp of 199.

Some minor tweaks I made:
- I used aluminum muffler tape to completely seal the sliding air vent on the Safe and cut a hole for the BBQ Guru fan input.
- Bought the CyberCook Mini app for my iPhone and used this to control the CyberQ - YES worth the $7! (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cybercook/id825124887?mt=8)
- Used the Humphreys BBQ maze in the Safe Firebox (http://www.humphreysbbq.com/bbq-guru-accessories/charcoal-maze-snake) YES worth the $35.

Loaded with Kingsford Competition and Live Oak Chunks.
Wrapped at 175 and sprayed with Aaron's special mist.
Took off at a little over 6 1/2 hours at 199. Ended the cook with about 1/3 of the fuel left unburned with the pit temp sitting nicely at 252! (a hard thing to manage on a DRY Pitmaker which likes to run hot)

The CyberQ held very close temps the entire time and quickly recovered after I pulled brisket for wrapping (at the 3hr 45min mark). Temp range from 248 - 262 and very consistent throughout the cook.
