There has to be some kind of bonus points for a successful cook today. I did what started as a 12.5 lb. brisket before fat trim and a batch of Barbie's beans today.
Why the bonus points? OK, let me preface this by my location, Louisville, KY, we're talkin' at least 600 miles from nearest coast. We had hurricane force winds today! 75mph at airport! The awning/gazebo thingy covering my WSM & Weber Genesis didn't survive, but otherwise very fortunate. But the cook was a success! kept the smoker temp between 230-260 most of the time, mostly with all bottom vents closed, didn't take much open to kick up the heat! Sorry I didn't get detailed log.
