Think I had a rookie mistake....
Been cooking picnic's, butt, ribs, and meatloaf on my 22 weber kettle. So I figured I'd try a couple of ribs and did a short 5 hour cook before doing a overnight cook like I have done with the 22 kettle. The ribs turned out great! I didn't use any water just adjusted the vents using my temp probes I have.
So I figured sweet should be the same with 10 pound picnic. Good lordy I messed up. I guess when using the WSM if you add 3 sweet potatoes and 4 potatoes you end up with a lot longer cook time. I added the taters at 8 hour mark in the cook. I never had this issue when using the kettle. But I ended up with a 22 hour picnic cook to get to 205. It was great!!!! But I got this so I could do a big enough cook for a group of friends.
I'm thinking adding the adding the taters extended my cook time?
I tried searching the forums and google before I asked.
