They seemed to change their sourcing during early COVID and the bags with different packaging were poor quality. From what I've seen they are mostly back to the old packaging with quality lump. There was plenty of the better stuff at my local Lowes on a recent visit.

You have options! I do them a little different depending on what else I might be cooking. If I'm smoking something low and slow, I just throw them on and let them smoke alongside a couple of hours. That gives a chewier snappy skin. If I'm grilling other things direct they come out juicy and cook quickly over a medium hot fire. If my focus is mostly the sausage I do a two zone setup at a hot temp and cook indirect before putting them directly over the flames at the end. Basically anywhere between 225-400+ depending on the goal, how much time you have and your preferences.

Bought the BGE roasting/rib rack locally. So now I have two rib racks.

Every Thanksgiving I wish I had a roasting rack to get a few more inches of clearance between the bird and drippings and then I forget about it for a year. Any suggestions on a good rack to fit the Classic?

Not in my experience. Once it's up to temperature my fan barely runs.

Circumstances have found me in a position where I have an extra Billows fan and I would like to offer it to some member of this fine community. I would like to hear from somebody who will make use of this, and already has or imminently plans to purchase a compatible remote thermometer (Signals, Smoke X, ThermaQ 2). This will fit in a USPS Priority Mail medium package, so I ask that you pay the cost of shipping $15.05 via PayPal Friends & Family. Included in the package: -Billows fan. -Fan cable adapter & cable. -Authentic & original Thermoworks Billows pa

I do mine at 325 and it takes about 2.5 hours for 14-16lb birds. Check it earlier and more often with an instant read instead of relying on the leave in probe.

I have the 14" and one regret. While the pan is great quality I wish they hadn't embossed their logo on it making it more difficult to clean.

It didn't cross my mind that she hadn't done the cook on the KJ but I did suspect she used a torch on the money shot.

I've followed this recipe twice now and, while delicious, I just can't get that perfectly puffed skin she achieves. https://jesspryles.com/recipe/pork-belly-porchetta-crispy-skin/ I don't aim to be that perfect but I'm not even getting close. By the time any crackle shows I'm already over target temp and it's totally uneven with a bit of crackle here and there but mostly chewy tough skin. My guess is a combination of temperature adjustment and opening the lid earlier to keep the internal temperature low while the fire does its work on the skin.

Can some scientist explain how a brisket cooked at 190 reaches 200 IT?

Might as well provide an update in case this question should come up for others. I saw some consistency across recipes for a half cup each of s&p for a 12lb packer. For my 9 pounder, I reduced to 1/3 cup, slightly less by pound than those recipes. The result was a nicely cooked, more than edible, but over salted brisket. I'll continue the s&p approach. It yielded fantastic bark but I'm going to have to go lighter on the quantities and continue to experiment. For what it's worth, this 9lb flat took 17 hours to reach 203F! I cooked at 230 most of the way, wrapped

For the first time I'm going to go straight dalmatian on a 9lb brisket flat early tomorrow morning. I've always used more complex rubs. I know I'm going 50/50 s&p, but I haven't found consistency in the actual amount to use. Looking at several recipes they range from a few tablespoons of each to as much as a half cup. You'd think there'd be a rule of thumb like x tablespoons per pound of brisket. Any guidance on this is appreciated. I'm tempted to just use excess and dredge for maximum coverage.

I live in a climate that is very humid in the winter (rain, clouds, fog, etc) and not at all in the summer. From what I've observed that cool temperature winter humidity definitely appears to affect my cooks in the same way you describe, especially during overnights as the air gets cooler and wetter. I have babysat my grill well into the night making sure the temp has held a steady 225 without adjustment for up to a couple of hours after putting the meat on before heading off to bed only to check a few hours later and find the fire dwindling to temps around 190. Daytime, good weath
