I have a bunch of people to feed this weekend and would like to cook most of the stuff in the KBQ since I'll be tending to it anyway. I originally was just going to do a 10 pound brisket and a tray of baked beans on it and the rest on other cookers but now I plan on adding a rack of baby backs (just because) and a whole chicken as well as a Boston butt cut in half to help it cook faster. I know the KBQ has lots of shelves but that doesn't necessarily mean it can cook well with that much in it. My plan is to start the brisket and the butt at the same time then later add the beans and ribs. Once beans are out, add the chicken.
Placement would be from top to bottom : brisket, butt, ribs (when time to add), beans to catch drippings (once all meat is at a safe temp). Later remove beans, add chicken.
Have any of you KBQ owners cooked a smoker full before? Any thing I should be aware of? I thought about maybe needing to rotate things but I don't know since I am putting the longer cook stuff up top. Any tips or ideas are welcomed!
