Wrapped it up, Added more coals and got the grill back up to temp. It had dropped to 190 while I was at Wal-Mart.

Put it on at 9:44. Its supposed to rain later, Idk if I will have to finish it in the oven.

My buddy's homegrown honey for a binder. Head country, Montreal steak, and a sprinkle of lemon pepper for the rub.

Did my coals different, hoping it maintains temp and burns a little longer this way. I should have put the lot coals to the backside of one of the baskets. Maybe would have more even heat.

Is there a pizza thread? Guess I will just leave this here, I cooked it in the oven though, like a bum.

It was pretty good. I need to get my times and temperatures dialed in, maybe by next year I will have it figured out lol. I should watch a couple youtube videos.
 
 
What kind of coal basket thing is that? Is that some Weber stuff or did it come with it? Load that thing up and let it roll, you shouldn't have to reload it. That basket is holding you back. Take a look.

Sorry forgot to post pics.

And yes it is the weber coal baskets. I was trying to keep the coal off of the side of the grill. I want to make a bigger basket.

Made steaks tonight. Used the probe and cooked to 150. They were medium well though. Need to take them off at 140 next time and see what that's like.

Daughter wanted steak, corn, peas, potatoes and dinner rolls for her 6th birthday dinner.

I'm addicted!

You ever cold smoked anything Mike? I'm in the process of building a cold smoker now. I need better tools, I make it really hard on myself using screws and scissors and a couple types of players to fabricate this external smoke box. Turned out alright though really.

I got a 12" a-maze-n brand oval tube smoker. You put pellets in it and light one end with a torch and it is supposed to burn for 4 hours. I have it in these popcorn tins, set up on the piece off the top of a Briggs and Stratton cut in half and bent to shape. They are bolted through the popcorn tin, and act as legs for the contraption.

Some people use a mailbox, but I'm trying to spend the least amount possible on this. So far all I spent was 20 for the tube thingamajig.

Anyway, I will pipe the smoke through a flexible metal dryer duct, into a masterbuilt cabinet that a friend had gotten in a storage unit auction. Its only the cabinet. Doesn't have racks, or a handle or anything. It did have the heating element but no plug, so I just took it out. Might end up putting some type of element with a controller if I decide to do more than cold smoking with it.

Sorry for the long winded post.

Hopefully they turn out good cause I have a bunch of people to feed it to tomorrow.

Thanks for the feedback and kind words guys.
 
Tried to take a nap for an hour while the IT was at 195. Must have shut the alarm off and went back to sleep for an extra hour. When I woke up IT was back to 190, grate temp 180. So I poked some pecan branches through the vent and after a couple more hours it was up to 201. Got them in the cooler now. Ive heard I can hold them for 5-7 hours. Which will allow me to pull them 30-45 minutes before the party and get them back in the cooler to transport.
