Slo-smoked Pork Picnic on the Kettlaman
« Reply #-1 on: August 26, 2015, 06:30:25 PM »
Why am I posting a cook in the Charcoal smoker section using the Kettleman charcoal grill?

Because it is also supposed to be used as a smoker!  We shall see.

Got the picnic thawing out for tomorrow mornings cook.

Here is the Kettleman all set up for tomorrow mornings cook.......all I got to do is make some coffee and light one end of the "C" of Kingsford  :)

Smoke,
How are you lighting the "C"?  Are you putting lighting fluid on one or two briquettes at the beginning of the "C"?

Ok..used lighter fluid to start the burn. Post Oak was chopped into chunks.


Not sure how to set the vent..for lower temps the vent needs to be wide open..gonna play around with this during the cook


Here we go..round 8 am

Looking forward to your results. I am still learning to use this kettle, but I am enjoying (and so are my kids - they love cooking on it.)

Update:

temps are running at 375-475  I opened up the vent wide open with no help...maybe I should have had the vent wide open from the start.

It looks like my "C" ring is almost gone......gonna have to reload the "C" and try again.....this cook has a long way to go...... :(
