Great Read About the PBC
« Reply #-1 on: August 13, 2014, 12:20:03 PM »
Ran across an interesting story today about a fellow's first cook on his Pit Barrel Cooker. Deer hunters and nature lovers will especially enjoy his descriptions and photos of the San Jose area. And it shows how the PBC can give you time to enjoy your day with friends instead of being tied to the fire!

Here is few excerpts. Full link below.

A few miles down the other side brings you to the tiny Isabel Valley. This is a little slice of heaven not so far from metropolis. The winding road gives way to a flat valley floor with a creek running through it. Great oak trees throw shade over the roadside. A picturesque bridge crosses the creek. It’s a very small valley by valley standards and I drive through it in about 3 minutes. Up and over the next ridge is the beginning of the dirt road and the gate that leads to our cabin.

This year I chose to purchase a pit barrel cooker (www.pitbarrelcooker.com), an upright drum smoker that is pretty much set-it-and-forget-it. This was a perfect addition to our usual santa maria style grill, which has ruined many an evening hunt for me – standing over it and cooking for the crowd while they get in a final evening hunt before dinner. Now I can hang the meat, close the lid and walk away until the meat is done – a few hours later.
