All this talk of cooking and grilling got me all excited. As I posted in the other threads I LOVE to cook over open coals. Right now I have all three sizes of Weber grills, a small hibachi my Grandpa made out of a tool box, and this 55 gallon beast. I got the inspiration from a friend who bought one from some guy. I made a couple mods to the design as I felt his was lacking in a couple areas.
So here it is!

It's not about how many, it's about how.

I'm not doing any game meat for Thxgvg, just a dry brined turkey and the ham.

Water pans limit the development of the "bark".

No water pan for me, nothing against it, just not a technique I use. I usually mix briquets and wood chunks. The wood chunks I soak before using. I don't really "smoke" per say, it's more a byproduct of my BBQing style. If I was going to "smoke" I would suggest one of the side draft types, then you can REALLY get some indirect heat action going.
Post a pic if you can! I'm always interested in what other people are using, and talking shop
