Been meaning to post these, I got a little gizmo for my Weber Kettle. Its basically a micro-controller that maintains constant heat in a wood or charcoal fired BBQ, It can be adapted to most any wood/charcoal fired BBQ, i.e. BGE , Kamodos, etc..
I did some ribs over the July 4th weekend...Berkshire baby back pork goodness !!!
The controller...( it has two temp probes, one for the meat, the other for the ambient? or smoker temp)
I got a 6 hour burn out of one starter chimney of lump charcoal... tossed a hand full of apple wood chips on when I put the ribs on....and lifted the lid every hour just to check progress.... Next time I do this I'm confident I can wait and check on a two hour interval... It takes a bit of time for the temp to stabilize after you pull the lid and poke around...
The ribs were delish...the hoard took moments to reduce them to bones...
