Mike, Water may be your problem. I have a DigiQ and never use water in the pan. All you need is a empty foiled water pan. Keep your bottom vents taped shut, your top ~1/4 open, a full ring of charcoal, and your all set. If you have the 10CFM fan, close it down to half. That's the way I do...

I'm not sure altitude is a big issue here. I live at 5500 feet and have had no problems on overnight cooks. Prior to getting my DigiQ, my double-butt cooks would go 15-16 hours on one very full ring of Rancher charcoal (foiled pan/clay base -- no water). Now that I have a DigiQ, I get the...

Dan, I use a DigiQ, but with a foiled pan without water... It's not required. How long was your cook? Any charcoal left at the end of the cook? Was the water pan empty? Bob W.

Mike, I recently ordered/received the DigiQII with the 10cfm fan. No regrets. Bob W.

Looks like everything turned out great despite the weather. Bet that umbrella smells good. Next time you use it while golfing, you'll probably get an overwelming urge for BBQ. Bob W

Getting ready for a 4-butt over-nighter. Going to be using my DigiQ for the first time. I have 2 five pounders and 2 six pounders. Should I put the smaller butts on the bottom or top rack? I will be using an empty foiled pan (no water or clay saucer). Bob W.

Baby Backs and ABTs...

Jon, I don't know what temp you plan on cooking at or the weight of your butts, but my last two-butt cook took 17 hours at 250 degrees (measured at the lid). I used a MM start, with clay pot base instead of water. 40 lit coals sounds like a bit much. I used 10 for mine. Bob W.

Craig, What temp do you cook at? How high do "ramp up" to at the end? BobW.

It's Sweet Baby Rays for me. Bob W

David, Close all the vents and the coals will die out. BoB W.
