the wheels are turning / tri dogs
« Reply #-1 on: September 20, 2012, 09:03:42 PM »
when you cook w/ charcoal do you every put to much?  i do.  the drum basket is huge for great long burns.  well, what about great little burns.  i got this.



i took my weber coal holder apart.  bent it here and there and waa laa.  1/2 a coal basket for little burns.



i used this for 4 cooks.  it works great.  i've gotten 6 - 7 hour burns at 220 -250.  on a 1/2 coal basket fill 1/2 way.  these drums are so cool.  i hardly use any coal and keeps temp like a champ.

ok, enough of that.  time for tri dogs. 

the key to these drums is use only 15 coals.  only 15.



threw down some oak pellets to get some smoky, smoky.



made some M3 marinade to let tri sit in for 4 hours (marinaded 4 hours ago). 



coal on one side.  tri on the other. 



can't cook tri w/ out tatonka dust.



getting a good crisp on.



sliced up and ready for the kids.



don't laugh like my kids.  these are my tri dogs.



thanks for looking.

Tri dogs are a great idea and an even better idea is that 1/2 basket!!
