    Marketing: Should I or Shouldn't I

    Forgot a few things. I added apple and maple chunks to the briquets for the first 3 or so hours of the cook. They made some pretty, thin, blue smoke. We knew that some folks would want a sauce for the pork so we concocted one using highbush cranberry puree as the base with some other spices...
