I noticed that the manual for my 18" WSM recommends 100 briquettes, approximately 1 chimney starter full, at the start of a cook. I've been using 150 or 1.5 chimneys. Does anyone know about how long it will cook on 100 briquettes? Should I use 1 chimney for chicken, 1.5 chimneys for ribs, and as much as it will hold for pork butts or briskets?
