Multiple testing day!

Post by essexsmoker »

What a great day I've had!

Wanted to test my new stoker design and thought I'd also try out using using lumpwod for low and slow at the same time.

Was a bit of a gamble but couldn't bring myslef to waste the time (or charcoal) so thought I'd try another first and make a fatty.

Well it was 100% success!

The stoker was great. 109C for about 98% of the time only dipping to 108C every 10 minutes for about 2 minutes. Very occassional dip to 107C, about twice in 3 and a half hours. VERY pleased.

Was a bit worried about the stability using restaurant grade lump but no problem at all. Thanks Yetidave! :)

Did my first fatty too and OMFG. How can such a simple thing taste soooo good?:)
On the downside I've nearly eaten the whole thing on my own!
Holy F**k the calories. :D

So a great day was had!

Hope everyone else had such a good one!

Good to hear you were successful! It's a good feeling when these things work. N yeah them fattys are pretty good. I still gotta give the lump a go.

Lump was really good. I thought it might burn too hot but it was fine. At least you know there won't be any nasty fumes from it.
