    Having eaten there a few times, I thought it was awful, it actually closed shortly after opening then reopened under a new name. I ate there prior to them closing, and twice afterward. And I didn't care for it at all, they have some really nice comp trailers out front which I think serve as...

    Big Butt

    Personally, I'd cook the whole thing and freeze what you dont eat. When you reheat add a little apple juice, or BBQ sauce and a little rub and it tastes very good. Plus you save on fuel etc from only doing one cook.

    Help

    You should be near 235-240 at the lid in my opinion, only getting around 210 at the lid means your grate temp is probably only at 190-200 which is too low. As for it being 4 hours and them still tough, are you doing spares or baby backs? I find that my thick baby backs take around 6 hours at...
