    Pit went out... Help?

    Help. I’ve got 50 people coming over shortly. Butts went on at 12am. Pit was at 230* at 12:30am. I went to bed. Woke up at 730am, pit was out and at 110*. Butts were temping at 100*.

    Stovetop Smokers ???

    I recently watched an episode of The Neelys where they used a stovetop smoker.  Frankly, I didint even know they existed.  I looked them up online and they seemed relatively inexpensive (as far as smokers go).  It appears that you do the smoking with chips on the stove and then finish the meat...
