A Rotisserie Pork Roast , lump let down and one heck of a storm .

We had to Travel for Easter and made it home late in the afternoon on Sunday , I decided to grill up a pork roast and wanted to use the rotisserie .


I rubbed the roast with some Bad Byron's and lit a full chimney of royal oak lump ( a charcoal I've rarely used) I set up for indirect with a chunk of apple wood .


About an hour into the cook the sky's turned black and the wind and hail started

At the two hour mark I decided to temp the roast to see where I was at . I noticed the temp on the MT was way down and when I opened the lid I was stunned to see all the charcoal had burned up and was gone. Shit !  Not at all close to the burn time I get with KBB . I realized the Royal Oak I had used was mostly small pieces and that likely caused the fast burn time , so I had to add more and wait for it to get going .

Roast in waiting





Once the coals were going we were back at it again and it turned  out extremely well , despite the long pause .

It's that one variable that "shouldn't make a difference" that gets ya every time. Good recovery!
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

That pork took on a good smoke ring. That looks tasty. Way to cope with the down time.

That is a bad ass smoke ring man!

Great looking roast!  Two questions:
1. What cut?
2. Where did you get the wrap?
