After doing a 15 hour low and slow to a pork butt last weekend I took my plate setter out, stirred the lump around and found this much lump left! I can't believe how good on fuel or should I say HPL ( hours per lump) this thing is!

Your "lump consumption" will increase as you burn up the gasket!

Wow, that is good. The "used " lump is the best!Maumelle, Arkansas

Yeah, I remember being so amazed by that. The allure wears off, just like the buzz's you get when you first start smoking. So, it's good to see a post like this to remind me of what i'm now taking for granted.Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ....

I just ordered the Rutland from RRP on the other forum. Eggs gonna get a spa day. I'm using a bag of lump for four cooks.

@Kosko, what type of lump did you use? Last week I used Stubb's and couldn't get above 250 after 12.5 hours. The brisket was the best ever. But the last hour was in the oven. Sure would like to know what lump you used.
