    Now you have my attention....doing a clod.  IMHO a properly q'd clog beats a brisket hands down.  I will be very interested in how you do the clod.

    Agree. I'm a clod fanatic. I posted one that I did sometime back. It was a 33 pounder. If I remember correctly, the title of the post was: "A Monster in the making". Or something real similar. Pretty sure that I posted it on the BBQ Brethern, The Smoke Ring, Smoking Meat and the WVBB as well. I will post this one coming up as well. Clod doesn't get much love here for some reason or another. And that's really ashame.

    Interesting design. I think it would be fun to have a trailer stick burner for the house, parties, tailgate, cook-offs, etc.

    Agreed it is a shame. When i was growing up clod was king here in central TX.  Kreuz meat marketwas the place to go for a good clod. Of course that was in the day that the knife was chained the the table, butcher paper covered the table and the family bbq divorce was way in the future.  Today brisket is king.

    Im going to "double" plate the baffle. The top baffle will catch the grease. However with another baffle just below the top baffle, the top baffle will not get hot enough to smoke or boil the grease. The bottom baffle will be the heat shield and the top baffle will be a drip pan for lack of a better word.


    I'm baffled... And impressed. I'd like a small side box/stack. When can you start?      B)

    You should be able to get one at any grocery store. However they usually won't have the whole clod sitting in the meat case for sale. Just about all grocery stores receive the shoulder or clod intact then cut it into roasts, steaks, etc, etc, themselves. If you ask, they will usually sale you the whole thing.
