M1 pork chops
Partial cook pics as I got distracted serving the fam
Butcher cut me some thick cut chops They also had this but maybe next time On the M1 Small fire using my minimal charcoal method Nice clean smoke Last pic as I had other stuff cooking. I pulled the chops at 135 and used my new sear box that I got in the BF deal. Turned out pretty good nice juicy med rare and a healthy char Fam seemed to like them |

Too bad you didn't get a plate shot. I bet they were awesome!

Thanks for the comments guys, even without finished pics. I get a little embarrassed to snap a photo when people are gathered around
The searing box worked better than expected, I got nice char especially on the edges Anyway for anyone interested in the M1 here’s the temp off my smoke therm for the 1hr cook - consistent with 1-2 stickers per hour (mine are small) |

It looks like it kept pretty even temps for the cook. I really want one of these grills but just can't justify it at the moment. I have a smoker/grill addiction. LOL

I actually could not justify the purchase either so I just ended up buying it because I wanted it and no other reason |

I really need to get rid of some of the other cookers though because I live with my fiance' and she is not happy with all of the things I have. She doesn't understand why I need or have so many cookers. LOL. |

No i have not. In fact I’ve been reducing the amount of charcoal used to start my fire. I have an Open Range like you and now a Hunsaker drum so that’s what I save it for

What are the benefits of reducing the amount of charcoal to start your fire?

I love the adjustable grate system for grilling and have an older Hasty Bake that has that feature but like I said, I need to reduce the inventory a lot. I really would like to get down to just one grill/smoker but that is probably not going to happen because I can't decide what to keep and what to get rid of. |

I figured as long as I could get up to temp and ok to feed it every hour that would work for me. Quote:
This is the first time I’ve tried reverse searing on the M1 and I’m really pleased with the result, especially with the sear box but that might be confirmation bias I have the HB as well and love it - no plan to get rid of it but honestly it’s redundant with the M1. BTW I’ve I’ve heard Travis say some are reporting 5-6hrs on a full basket of charcoal and a stick but I have never loaded it up like that because I am cheap so I can’t verify |

I guess some day I may just break down and get the M1 and see what I think for myself and do some experimentation. Thanks again for the replies. Wayne |
