1buckie how long did the coals burn for with that setup, thanks,jd
@jd That one ran about 1:15 or thereabouts, but I pulled stuff off way before the coals were finished....
Like said, the 'Turds up front dripped grease & then it dripped down into the center of the kettle & began to burn if the lid was open.....
Kind of a foul ball......you can see some of them needed to be moved & in the pans, some didn't get good & done on the bottom.....
A normal run on these, on a 22", looks something like this:
Lightly dampened shread, pretty good coal pack & it will run for 2~2-1/2 hours @ about 235~245......
It's a conrtolled burn, with the smoke filtering up thru the damp shread to mellow it.....if it works out well, produces a real nice, smooth smoke flavor in the product.......
