Just got back from Costco with a big pork tenderloin and a couple of yardbirds, OL is gonna get some ribs too. Yowza!

Fighting to keep it at 225, the wind is being a pain.

Where's the rest of it?

Try it on an El Cheapo Brinkmann. Perfectly calm 225 degree day and I still wouldn't get stable temps.

I have a CharGriller grill/smoker with the side fire box. I modded the chimney and firebox duct to get an even smoke flow and tweak the lid a bit but it seals pretty tight. It does pretty well but it is finicky on weather.
My ribs in January weren't so goodly....

Not a biggie, I got 5.5 hrs on the smoke and my internal temp was 190. Pulled it off the rack and double wrapped with foil.
Gonna hold it at that for an hour then to rest in the cooler for another hour. Save the drippings for some burnt ends.
Corn on the cob, baked taters, toasted asparagus and hoagie rolls.

One of the reasons I built this cabinet for my smoker was to help baffle the wind. I'd planned on putting a door on it too, but haven't gotten around to that yet. I also gets the smoker up off the ground so I can deal with it easier, plus storage for two propane tanks and wood chunks, and I can wheel the whole shebang around on the patio wherever I want it. Then wheel it over in the corner out of the way when I'm done.

See if the photo attaches here. Really pisses me off that my new PC won't work right with this site, and this one alone. Can't paste photos, can't edit posts, can't even use the Enter/Return key without freaking out the keyboard. Blows my mind. Work fine wherever else I go.

Well; how did it turn out?

Yet to be determined, taters just went in the oven and Brisky is resting comfortably in the cooler.


Edit- finished product. A bit moister than I had hoped for, probably because of fighting temperature early on. Flavor was good and the burnt ends were awesome with a good bark.



All in all, a good smoke!
