I was a little on edge about doing this but ot was easier than I expected and I can't wait to so something else. I'll try...

    Not too late. I rinsed it very well. Been on for 9.5 hours right now. Time to go check.

    How Goes the brisket, Geoff? Turkey is now at 140 in the breast. Looking very good. Pics are all the same, no need for more.

    Two hours now. Just basted again with Apple juice. Internal temp in the breast is 130. When should I need to add more coals?

    Ok, here we are at one hour. It looks really good to me. There's a lot more color on it than I expected at this point. Temp is now hovering right around 230 consistently.

    Game On!

    Ok, so the first smoke began about an hour ago and I've been playing with temperature every five minutes. I'm just going to leave things alone and deal with the temp swings as they come. Pics of the turkey every hour.

I noticed that the temp gauge (which doesn't have numbers, just Warm, Ideal, and Hot) came up pretty fast but stayed in the very...

    Hey All

    Awesome. I'm up for that. Nothing better than eating good food all weekend long. Couldn't agree more. RE Fenway: I love going to the park when I can get tickets. Used to be we'd take the train in an hour before game time and get tix at the box office. Now every game is sold out the day they go...

    Hey All

    What's up, Everyone? Just wanted to say hey and introduce myself. I've been cooking all sorts of stuff on my Weber charcoal kettle for about 7-8 years. I like to experiment quite a bit and try different things. This includes cooking methods. This year I finally mastered my own dry rub for...
