Hi Everyone,
I cured and smoked my first pork loin (first cook of the season) approximating Tom Barineau's recipe http://tvwbb.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/28800690...560093152#3560093152 (thanks, Tom) for Easter Sunday dinner. It turned out great and influenced several friends. Butt, when I cleaned out the WSM, there was over an inch of water in the bottom. This being Seattle, it may have rained a bit between smoking and clean-up although I had protected it by hanging a blue tarp over it. I remember this happened to me last time as well and it wasn't raining. It sure makes for a mucky clean-up. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this and suggestions for fixing it? I've read a couple of past posts which mentioned rain being the culprit and a fix of placing some foil in the bottom. Anything else?
Thanks.
