Might just have to be a early birthday present ;)

Now that is one sweet deal on a great unique charcoal cooker!!!
The Pit Barrel Cooker works perfect with Original Kingsford and what a great partnership with a heavyweight in the BBQ world!!
Of course, Kingsford is probably pretty careful who they deal with so this promotion speaks volumes!!!

In a paraphrase of David Crosby of CSN&Y
"Almost bought a grill, Happened just the other day"
I almost bit the bullit but, I've already got ton my present & have to check bank account later.
-
I have two ideas to fix the high charcoal use for small cooks.
You could slide refridgerator magnets over the 4 upperholes& a large magnet over the intake hole after the cook is over.
Second I've made smaller charcoal rings for my WSM & Kamodo to load less fuel for shorter cooks that should allow less fuel for shorter cooks
-
Unfortunately if you do that LA, it would mess up the way the pit runs. It was designed to run with the bottom vent set to your altitude and with the 4 holes to have the rebar ran through them for the cook. This is nothing like a UDS where you can get away with adjusting the airflow to slow down the burn. I have learned with my PBC to just light the coals,wait 20 minutes and get cooking and I just gotta say it:
"It is so neat, to hang your meat!!"

What if you move to a different altitude?
-
Once you get a PBC,you can never move again!! :D Chances are the setting will be fine. If you notice your food is cooking slower than usual you can open up the bottom vent a bit and if your food is finishing faster than what you are used to,you can just back it off a tad.
Give Amber a ringy dingy Mike and she will get you your tracking number...and remember, your PBC needs no break in so you can be cooking in about 30 minutes once you get your delivery!!
and I gotta tell ya, the more you use your PBC the more flavorful the cooks get, I was just lining foil in the bottom of mine for tomorrows cook and I cant believe how good it smells inside that barrel!!
Dont forget to get your Original Kingsford and Kingsford lighter fluid!! ;)

Hey Mike, when all the diehard Texans are up all night tending to their off-sets and you are getting a good nights sleep cause your new PBC will cook butts and briskies around 6 hours, you better lock the PBC up at night or it might turn up missing!! :D

Yup! A co-worker of mine loves making brisket. I asked him how many times he gets up to tend to it. He says a couple 2 , 3 times. Uugh.

Talk about fast shipping. I called just a few minutes ago and Noah picked up. I asked about the tracking number. He apologized and said that their system is set up to send it out to the email address the customer provides and doesn't know why it didn't send it. Long story short, he asked me to send him a quick email and he would reply back with the tracking number. He was out of the office at the time. VERY NICE GUY. He said the PBC HAS BEEN SHIPPED ALREADY. I placed the order last night :o

That is just one example of the excellent customer service that Pit Barrel Cooker provides!!

I actually never called Noah up, because smoke's tutorials and comments were excellent. My PBC came and I already knew exactly what to do! Thanks Smoke for turning me on to the PBC and all the great stuff you contribute to the forum. :)

100% agree. Was kinda weird listening to him talk cause it reminded me off all the videos I watched online. I contacted them to see about a tracking number. Wasn't expecting him to pick up :o
He did end the conversation by thanking me for my business and to not hesitate on calling him about anything.

:) Hopefully I can break it in on my next day off after I receive it. Now that it gets dark here at around 5:30 pm and I dont get home from work till after 6, I dont have any daylight to do much. But I will as you all know post some pics.
-
Mike-
Flashlight, duct tape, and hard hat......Now..you can cook when you get home! ;D
PBC is exemplary with their customer service. I have heard this from a number of happy owners. We are glad to have them as a forum sponsor!

I ordered mine on Saturday night. Smoke is quite the salesman. ;)
Honestly, I liked all threads about this cooker and I'm looking forward to using it.
-
It amazes me that for the small amount of money that the PBC costs - you get a quality, consistent - almost goof-proof cooker - that can re-create ( for me) real "Western Style" pit flavor.
We have all spent more than the PBC costs on cookers that - if we are honest about it - have been pretty disappointing.
Great value - and Noah and Amber are building a great American success story with their business. It feels good feel - kind of like we are a part of this as we watch PBC grow!

Hey, Squirt, you checked out the new Chubby2, yet? Sold my 2010 Chubby and bought a PBC, for chicken cooks. Pretty steep price on the new Chubby, but it will fit a full sized packer. Trying to figure a way to do one on the PBC. Any ideas, Noah? :-\

There is a video on his website on how to do a brisket.

Check out my Southfork Brisket post that I did last Sunday. Had a big ole packer in there with plenty of room to spare!!
-
Yes, check out our website for all the videos, soon to be more! Everything that comes off the PBC is awesome even pizza! That video will be out soon too.
-
I assume the pizza is on the grate? How long to cook? Same full basket of coals? Can't wait for the video... lol...
David
-
Pizza is on the grill grate using a pizza stone, depending on the thickness of dough it should take about 25 minutes with the lid cracked just slightly, same amount of charcoal. Remember once you get a few cooks under your belt you can experiment with amount of charcoal. Since you will be a pro by then :)
-
Thanks! Going to try the pizza this weekend. My oldest daughter is having a party, so the grills and firepits will be going! Pizza and wings are always a hit.
David
-
Wings too? Delicious on the PBC also!! Here's how we do ours, take a bag or pack of wings season them with the all purpose pit rub toss them on the grill grate for about 15 min each side then remove them and brush them with your favorite bbq sauce/hot sauce and let them cook an additional 15 minutes or to taste. They are seriously the best wings I've ever had!!

I've been doing wings in my CB SRG for a couple of years now - always excellent. I'm going to try them in the PBC this weekend - a wing cook off! Will try to get some pictures... lots of 14 year old girls will be here - pics may be difficult... ;D
Looking forward to the cook!

Love that wing idea!

Infrared vs the Pit Barrel..............this I gotta see!!

Regarding brisket, my puter's sound system gone away, ergo, can't hear what the man's saying in brisket video. Refresh me, please, ie; what's the yellow stuff in the bowl? What temp did you wrap? What temp did you take it off cook to rest? Did you or do you inject? Ever tried butcher's paper wrap? What was your mop sauce in the wrap? Yadda, yadda, yadda! Inquiring "compers" would like to know!! :-\ ;)
OD
Post Script: If this twelve pounder works out, gona need me another barrel (At that discount price, of course!)
-
That is olive oil in the bowl. Rub the briskie down and add your favorite rub.
follow the hook placement in the video and you will have no problems with it falling.
When the brisket reaches 160 internal remove the brisket and foil. You can add liquid if you like....I like to splash in some lager beer and some white onion and jalapenos.........
Place the cooking grate in the barrel and set your brisket on that......always put the re-bar back in place..the pit runs at its optimum when they are in place.
Pull the brisket around 195. I like to use a probe and run the lead out through the opening in the rebar hole. I rest my thermo on the horseshoe handle!!

Thanks, Social. Got a packer defrosting now. How bout those cooking times at sea level? I usually wrap around 175 and cambro it around 205 for US Choice, 200 for prime, but, it varies. Go by feel more these days. Haven't tried a non-injected brisket since the old Rocky days. :P Will take some snaps for the cook, if I can get the camera to work. ;)

My first cook was a yard bird halved. Took right at 1 hour. Was at 170F. I'm at 16ft above sea level.

Just took a slab of St. Louies off the PBC after two hours and forty five minutes, burnt to a crisp! ??? Things must be different in Denver. Anybody else cremating their ribs on this smoking? machine? Will cut back to two and see. ::)

Neil it looks like we are going to end up with a significant number of very inventive pit barrel cooker

A link to the forum liks pattiodaddios link would be a mutually beneficial thing.

Thanks for responding! Still working on the hubs here. When I said I wanted one he started counting off what I already had. I reminded him I gave away my 2 charcoal cookers this summer. So we will see if "the pout" works. :D

Well, you can add my name to the list of PBC buyers. Mrs. Claus came through after all. Can't wait for it to arrive.
