2 Hours in..

4 Hours in.. Now it's Apple wood until finished

Bloody Weather... cold and rainy playing hell with the temps.:faint: Butt hit 147 in 4 hrs. Kettle temp dropped like a rock. I've able to keep it around 260 just got to watch it close.

Butt finally pushed past 180 at 8 hrs in.. Can you say Bark

Did not use a full basket to start. About a dozen to start with a couple of small chucks of hickory. Add another dozen to one side (modified minion method). Add a few briquettes as needed to maintain the temp and small chunks of smoking wood. Royal Oak for this one. The spritz was 50/50 pineapple/ginger ale. You do get a slight taste..

Post by: HankB on March 30, 2013, 06:26:12 AM: That looks really good! I prefer to use my WSM for that kind of cook, but yours is a good demonstration that it can be done just as well on a kettle.

Thanks... The Kettles are pretty versatile.. It is a bit more work for sure.
WSM and a 26'er are on my I WANT ONE list.

I don't recall if you have a mini-WSM, but if not you should add that to your list. They're pretty amazing for what they can cook and pretty economical.
