First attempt at wings (direct and not raised)

Put them in a bowl with fresh squeezed lime juice, minced garlic and tsunami spin and left in fridge for about 6 hours.  Egged direct at 280 for just under an hour.  I will never eat wings elsewhere again!

    How often did you flip/rotate the wings? It looks like your lump pile was beneath the air holes in the fire box. Just curious if you always cook with that much lump routinely. If so, how long will it burn at 300 degrees on average? It's a good way to give distance between the fire and the food without using a raised grid.

    Wings look great - what did you do with the sprouts though?  Those look outstanding also.

    Stemc33- I use less lump for low temp short cooks to better control the temp from spiking.  Should be able to get at least a couple hours with that amount of lump at 300 degrees.  I flipped the wings once at halfway point and then maybe once or twice more near the end.

    Jak - thanks.  I shook the sprouts in olive oil and dizzy pig Mediterranean, sea salt, and ground pepper.  I like putting them whole/uncut directly on the grill direct for a roasted marshmallow effect - they literally melt in your mouth. The ones in foil were for my wife as she does not like as much smoke/char flavor.
