Be careful, we don't want Bosceaux getting a big head even if he deserves it! Rob

Leave it in the vac bag, it's fine. You're essentially wet aging it. Rob

Once it's on the truck, it moves rather quickly. The fun is about to begin!! Rob

Yep, that's how I did it. Rob

Wrap the lower grate with foil, that'll work for a deflector. I just recently did my first smoke pot cook, it's a beautiful thing! Rob

If you're inclined, Dennis' cabinets are beautiful. One would be a great addition. Rob

Your event is much more important!! Rob

A popular place is fruita wood chunks. They have very high quality pieces. Personally I prefer charcoal store.com. They also have good quality, but will ship 5lb boxes, I believe fruita's minimum is 10lbs. Rob

I love my Cyberq, it makes simple even simpler. Rob

Plan B sucks. Use the force. Rob

Ok, that's funny!![emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] Rob

NO ONE can resist the POWER of the DARK SIDE of THE FORCE!! Do not try to resist, it will only cause more agony! Embrace the dark side, and soon you will join the KK Jedi Knights!! Rob

Should I say it? Rob

I would have been happy to have been a guide. If you ever have family come this way, IM me. Rob

I'm not sure about this, but I think the new grout adds just a bit more insulation. Don't quote me on that. Rob

You must trust in the power of the dark side!! Rob

A cult?? This is the true dark side!![emoji41][emoji41][emoji41] When I say dark side, I hope everyone knows I'm just having fun, it's meant as no disrespect to anyone, especially Dennis. I think Bosceaux was the first person I started using that phrase with, I can't remember, but if anyone feels that it's inappropriate, please let me know! Rob

Time to turbo the process. Rob

The power of the dark side cannot be denied!! Rob

I'm thinkin a 32", and a 23". This will give all kinds of capacity, plus, the 23" is just a bit smaller for such cooks the 32 isn't necessary. As far as moving, they roll much more easily than you might think, and moving them over mild terrain is easily accomplished using plywood. I moved my 23 across my yard by myself with plywood. A downslope will be no problem with help. I'm not trying to talk you out of 2 32s', I just like the idea of variety, plus, in my opinion, the 23" is the best looking![emoji41][emoji41] Rob

That'll work! Rob

2/3". Rob

You'll likely have to close the top quite a bit to maintain temp. The initial settings are just to get you there fairly quickly. Rob

That's a pretty complete burn. How are you defining a full basket? The coal should at least go to the top rung of the basket, or more, as long as you're not interfering with the deflector. Lighting in more than one place isn't necessary, about 3/4" bottom, 2 full turns top should get you there pretty quickly. Rob

If you got a lot of smallest, you could certainly blocked airflow enough to keep the temp down. Fuel+airflow=temperature. This could easily be the issue with the time to come to temp. The last bag of RO I used had a good bit of smalls in it, so you might pay attention to what goes into the charcoal basket. Rob
