@ Baby Back Maniac....hey bud, I'm a subscriber to your YouTube channel, love your vids! I had a couple of questions about the summit and found this thread so I figured I ask here. I should also mention I am a rookie so I apologize in advance if the questions are a tad bit sophmoric.
1. Have you compared the temp readings on the lid thermometer with the internal readings of the electric probe you're using? The lid thermos on the Weber Kettle are worthless and I just wondered if they had improved the performance for the Summit?
2. Relative to your vid cooking side by side pork butts on the Kettle and Summit I found it hard to justify the cost of the summit, given the performance of the standard kettle.
3. I really love the kettle with the SnS, do you know if there are plans to develop a SnS for the Summit?
4. How do you manage adding wood chunks to the Summit during a long cook...brisket for example? Do you just load plenty of chunks at the beginning or do you actually remove the meat on the rack during the cook and add more wood chunks?
Thanks in advance for any clarity you can provide!
