    @ Wolfpack-"was" is the operative word-and enjoyed that chapter-but tis a young man's game.  No BGE's while cruisin around the ocean but did do a couple topside BBQ's on occasion. 
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    That's awesome! BBQ with the ocean all around that would be quite a site

    I agree with Brownie, the Turbo is great if your short on time. Nice to have both options. I did add more hickory to the Turbo than I usually do, and buried some deeper into the lump than normal also. Nice write up Brownie, thanks for taking the time to do this!

    Nothing like a slider hot off the grill in the middle of the Atlantic eh Lou?  A nice break from "5 knots to nowhere".

    Spent all my time in the Pac-and missed the "5 knots to nowhere" til the end-game-last chance to go to sea so that was how I closed it out...but you gotta love sliders and chocolate chip cookeie...even if it's after field day.  And I apologize for the thread hi-jack.

    I did two turbos and the only thing I would change? Add more smoke wood. Its moist and very taste just dont have the smoke taste I'm use too. Yes I would and will do it again. Everybody loved it.  \:D/

    Reading through MI Jasonsbigphil posted that he used olive oil that unintentionally made his bark soft. If I were to use olive oil on a turbo would it give me softer bark, or would the olive oil turn to crust at the higher temps?

    No worries lou....this was a post for everyone interested.
