Stereo Eggs at -10°F

Merry Christmas all, hopefully a bit warmer where you are. Started the eggs for a Christmas ham and brisket packer. Not very nice outside at -10°F but better than 2 days ago with crazy winds and cold.
Finished pics to follow.

    Haha, I agree. I do cheat some with a Stoker pit controller. Light the fire and run back inside to warm up  =)

    I think I’d keep a fire going in that minimax all day just for warmth.

    The ham and brisket flat are on. I separate the point and flat because 1 I can cook a bigger brisket on a large BGE and 2 because the point cooks faster so I can pull the flat and point when each are ready.
    I love the maple bourbon ham recipe from @egret but mom likes a traditional ham. I inject about 4 oz of maple syrup but go without the rub.

    You are definitely holding up your side of the banquet.  As you well know, the BGE doesn't care once it gets to temperature.  Now the cook...
    Way to power thru.  
    Merry Christmas!

    I agree, living in the fridgid north all of my life, you either never go outside for 6 months or say screw it, my BGE egg doesn't care how cold it is and I don't either.

  • Looks good. As normal, I did a turkey and a ham for Christmas.  I was very disappointed in my ham but the turkey was good, although not my best either.
