Yes, totally normal.

Sweet! See you there.

This is a common problem with new Eggs/Eggers and the solution is almost always more charcoal. Load that baby up to the top of the firebox if you want to get it hot and open the vents.

Yeah I'm with Smitty. And if you really want more smoke just add another chunk or two but don't blame me when your brisket is oversmoked. Also remember that just because you don't see smoke doesn't mean the brisket isn't getting flavor from the wood…

I just measured and it's 4 inches down. I couldn't possibly scroll that far on a regular basis. :@)

Texas is a big place and they don't all do the same thing. If you like chili powder and cumin just add some. I think it's important to use good quality for those two things though. I order my chili powder and just plain ground chiles from www.pender…

I think these things will all sag. That's the whole point of the cast iron grates.

That bottom crust looks great!

I'd rub them and smoke them for a couple hours at 250. Then toss them in a foil pan with a cup of coffee or beef broth. Cover and cook at 300 until very tender. Probably another couple hours. Add a little mopre coffee or broth if it runs out. I'd co…

I'd foil it right now.

Thanks B-)

Am I the only one who is getting a little bit comfortable here? I know it's more fun to beat up on the company and to some people any change is hard but we're probably going to be happy here. I think you are in the silent majority who likes this fo…

I'm a subcontractor, I don't think that's a secret. But they don't tell me what to say and they don't tell me if I like something or not.
