Default Saturday morning butts

Four butts is about all my uds will hold on one grate. They are weighing in at 40lbs total.

I just purchased a set of scales so I can stop guessing at how much finished weight I have and how much is going in the bags.

Looks good Cliff. Why the foil around the rim?

I did not read the uds thread good enough.

The foil helps give the weber lid a better seal.

I left a 4" square hole right in the center with draft in mind. There is a little space around the edges. As they shrink they will draw better.. The temps seem to be holding real steady.

I am going to cook a little hotter than normal because I want this cook to be finished on the same day it started.

Good looking butts you have Cliff.

I am curious to see how much of the 40lbs you have left. I did 8 earlier this year and ended up with around 60% I think.

40lbs of butts...looks delicious. That'll make a nice snack, but what are you actually making for dinner!

Well, i didn't want to say anything but been there, done that....

Not enough air flow to get a good air draw and the large amount of dripping fat all but extinguishes the coals.
