My first pot of chili on the egg - definitely proper weather for it!



I think it’s going to be good...

    Working from home does provide for good long-cook supervision. Great use of it right there!

    That looks great. Did you use any smoke?  Last time I did that cook, I used hickory, and the smoke was a bit strong for me. SWMBO loved it though.  Next time I'm using lump only - no wood chunks/chips. 

    Great cook!!

    I put a few small lumps of mesquite on, but I had an unexpected delay - so, didn’t get it on until about 90 minutes later than expected - most of the smoke wood had already burned off.  In the end it had a pleasant light smokiness.

    That's a fine lookin' pot of chili right there! Wondering where all the Texans are with their bean comments. :rofl: 

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    My great grandfather settled in central Texas in the 1880s.  My grandfather was born in Texas - my father was born in Texas.

    I like beans.
