Was not planning to use the offset today due to weather. However, the skies parted a bit, switched smokers, and went for it.

Cooked two racks of spares, a 9 lbs flat, and a chicken to munch on. And, as an afterthought, threw on a piece of corned beef late.

Ribs are good, flat is resting, and corned beef still on the smoker.

Meats looks Good

Do you have to have a box to stand on when using that smoker. ?

Yes! The two soft drink flats served that purpose today. I've contemplated reworking the base of my smoker in order to lower it. But, the boxes are very convenient.

Further, I was telling Mrs. G-man that I need to add a counter weight to the lid, since I'm soon moving into old age.
 
The brisket turned out around 8 of 10. One of my better flats, as I normally cook a full packer. I didn't wrap, but mopped 3 hours in. It was fine this evening, but may need a little sauce on leftovers. Will probably wrap next time around 170. I was also surprised how long it stalled. I cooked at 225-250.

Thanks for looking!

Food looks great, although I'm a milk crate kind of guy. Two of them side by side zip tied together:)

Gets me up to perfect height and was quite affordable.

Very resourceful and smart! May I ask what modality of procurement you employed to secure such outstanding cooking accessory?

Walmart has them. But you can often find them for free if you go dumpster diving after the kids move into the local college dorms.
