Rob,
It's done when it's done. But to address your comment about a regression model, I'd say that work has already been done. It may not have been scientific, but I think if you did a regression on all of our experience, you'd come back to the 1.5 hours per pound that is almost always used when talking about bbq. As you know, after you do a regression, you still only have an expected value, not a certain predictor of the outcome. There's always going to be outliers.
