    How to properly set up & use a blower / temp control system? Are they worth it?

    I've not used the ultraq but for my setup, I plug the vents where the fan mates to the bowl and close off the others. I leave the the top vent wide open. The only time I've cracked the bottom vents is when I was running low on charcoal but was so close to finishing a smoke which helped raise the...

    California > Garden Grove: The Smoking Ribs

    All very true and I can agree with that. I might have jumped the gun on posting that to be honest. It's just something that was explained to me when I had brought it up.

Only thing is dislike now are the plastic covered fans but that's just personal preference. If you use...

    Costco boneless pork shoulder, $5 off until Jan 30

    Good to hear! I've always been told use the bone in as they have more flavor but so long as they do not change the flavor profile, much if at all, I'm all in.

    The lines are drawn in the sand between a group of long time friends, I wish I could be at the gathering for all the antics and yelling but I booked Monster Jam for my son Saturday. Enjoy Brett!

    I missed the train; made a post on a topic that was new to me but apparently covered heavily in the forum. Hahaha.
