Not to hijack, but when I used any of the "natural" hardwood briqs ( Rancher, Trader Joe's, Stubb's or Maple Leaf ) in my Big Drum Smoker clones, the fats dripping on the coals stirred up ash and it ends up on your meats. I suspect since the grate on a PBC is closer to the charcoal ring it could be more prevalent, especially since the exhaust are the rod holes, when you pop that lid the ash is really gonna fly. Just sayin'.

In my experience lump leaves less ash not more, maybe it has to do with the intakes on your big drum? I will keep an eye out when I fire it up this weekend.

Just but a Pbc from Noah and throw out all the gear, weld the lid on and seal up the vent. Then you can build your own Pbc, lol :p

Right you are. My reading skills have degraded with years of excess smoke and beer.
So a "natural" briquette will ash up the food while a Kingsford briquette will not? Any hypothesis as to why you get this result?

On of the advantages of a hardwood briquette over "regular" briquettes like Kingsford Blue is less ash, so I'm not sure why this would happen. I guess I'll find out Thanks for the caution.

Its been my experience that the natural briqs produce more ash than BBK and when extinguished they just just crumble to dust and cannot be reused. Naked Whiz also posted to the same conclusion. Just a heads up.

Did you wrap the wing in foil at any time? That's a good looking bird. I've got my eye on a PBC now on the side just for chicken.
