Title: Making a barrel grill into a 10 hour low & slow cooker
Post by: LostArrow on October 21, 2012, 11:15:54 PM

First I STOLE this idea!
Tried first with my tailgating CB-500 & it worked!
Now my big grill with a 36 X 16 cooking area is a 10+ hr smoker.
You just need a few bricks and a pan to act as a heat shield.
Make a "fuse burn" with wood chunks covered with charcoal, the one you see burned 8 hours when the full fuse is placed will last 12 hrs.
Only cooked one 7 lb butt.

Nice bark on that butt and a neat way to get a long burn out of charcoal!!
