I realize there's already a thread on this, but no definitive answer... We had what we call a "toad-strangler" here in these parts a few night ago and, despite it all, my Kingsford got a bath. Dry or buy? TMF

Yum-yum was a bit salty for my crew. I'd cut it down a bit...

Use a bit less salt than any rub recipe calls for...

While you're waiting, read up a bit on the Vestal Virgins of ancient Rome and then--after First Burn--let us know what you've named your new mistress...!

Sounds like you're well on your way to garnering the mad scientist-type of reputation many of us enjoy among our Q-eating, non-smoking friends. Run with it. Be sure to use all kinds of arcane lore and mumble to yourself about different cuts of meat and temps while slicing. Oh yeah, and...

First smoke of ribs always makes me want to do a Garden of Eden joke (or at least sing Iron Butterfly's classic, but nobody would get that--unless they've bee [needlessly] monitoring their burn with a 6-pack all day...!) Either way, it looked heavenly...

I 'moked a pair of 13# briskets on Smoke Day V (details). A very good overnight burn overall: a solid 230 from 3pm until my last check at 4am. Never opened the lid. About 8am she was running 170, but an ash tap got her back to 230-240. Meat off at 9:30am, foiled, probed (180), and into...

13 hours in and steady burning at 230 with ONE damper at 50%. All systems GO! We're going around the dark side of the moon now. Godspeed, Volcana. We'll talk to you again just prior to splashdown.........

Been running steady at 230 since 3:30pm. I mean, NASA would be proud--230.00 degrees! I did have an initial gaff, but it may have been a moment of insight. After getting all lit and introducing Mr. Beef to Ms. Fire, I had the wife take a snapshot. Grinning ear to ear while panning through...

My wife's a teacher too--MemDay as a Snow day is heretical! *sheesh* Well, just finished trimming and rubbing the briskets. Honestly, since I'm an ECB convert, I've never even trimmed before and I used to marinade my briskets overnight in a reduced Worchestershire, vinegar, etc potion...

Just follow the smoke and listen for the hammer...! We'll leave the light on for ya.

Smoke Day V and I’m inaugurating my new 22”-er with a pair of 13# briskets! Figure I’ll prep ‘em early and thrown ‘em on in the late afternoon for an all night burn. Full bag o’ Kingsford and MM. Hope that temps are stable by dinnertime and settings are good for the all-night autopilot...
