Yeah this is one of the great debates. I'm no KBB loyalist, but the other side needs to be mentioned as well. There are downsides to lump. It can be hard to find in some areas, it will usually cost more, it doesn't burn as evenly due to the lack of a uniform shape offered by briquettes. I've...

Go for the WSM. They are built to last, and a breeze to operate. Starting with a chimney full of lit dumped on to the unlit a 20 lbs bag of kingsford blue will last 12 hours or more...I've gone up to 15 hrs with out adding fuel. I also use water in the pan. You'll find a few dozen defferent...

Please let us know how the CAB turns out. Because brisket is so hard to find up here, I was thinking of buying a couple at a time. One to cook within the week and one to age. It would at least save a trip to Restaurant Depot.

In the worst weather with no blanket, 20 lbs of Kingsford will last me at least 10 hrs. I'm talking 20 degrees or colder, breezy, and wet. If it's a weather issue, water heater blankets work wonders!! I was amazed how much more efficient it was when I did pork butts and brisket in early...

Cutting the meat down will shorten the time some, but I'm not sure of any real math on the topic. Using your chicken example a whole chicken takes longer than thigh pieces which takes longer than wings. But even with equal mass there can be a difference due to different fat content. It's an...
