That seems about where I am with that method too Hoosier. Looks like NewGuy is at an hour and 40 WITH the Vortex? I just can't imagine that. I've recently been doing a full chimney of lump with the vortex and vents wide open on the 22 and 40 minutes is pushing it. Not as accurate with the bone and all but the Thermapen reads over 160 after the first 20 minutes with that method. At that point it's just about getting the skin a little crispier without drying out the meat.
