boo ya, this is how us kettle guys roll
« Reply #-1 on: August 20, 2013, 03:16:57 PM »
all the big boys are playing w/ charcoal and wood.  I want to play w/ charcoal and wood too.  see smoke, i got skills.  that's right, I got kettle attitude.  I've been cooking on weber kettles for along time.  I am very comfortable cooking on them.  I can cook just about anything on my kettle. 

this is how us kettle guys roll!

fired up 10 coals. 



my version of a fuse burn.  i took apart my weber charcoal baskets and used the curvy part to line the back wall and your the straight pieces for the sides of my foil pan.  I stacked the briquettes and apple wood around the outer edge.  cool huh. 



10 hot briquettes at the start of my fuse burn.





temp perfect.





oh, i'm cooking my favorite food.



good clear heat.   ;D



holding temp like a champ.







held temp like this the until cook.  on a kettle. 

looking good maynard.





time for some FL.





coming out of FL.



3 1/2 hours i have used about a 1/3 of my fuse @ 275° more or less w/ no automatic temp control at all.  just me drinking. 







took the ribs off and i still have a lot of fuel left after 4 1/2 hours (i over cooked the ribs some).



they were good though.





got a baby smoke ring.  they were dry.  had to drink milk to eat them.  the flavor profile was outstanding.  if i just took them off 1/2 sooner. 



i got 7 1/2 hours + on my fuse burn.  just think what i could do w/ a 26" weber.  should not have sold mine 6 months ago.  ummmm....... how do i get a 26" kettle.  i'll work on that. 

note to self:  pay attention dummy.  only have 3 cocktails not 5.

Sparky, that's without a doubt one of the best photo-journals showing the Minion Method that I've ever seen! :)

Two thumbs up!!

Not quite as big as the restaurant (and that's a great place to eat!) - but it is huge! I rented one once to do burgers and dogs for a softball tournament - what a blast!

I don't care what you say, your ribs are always outstanding. Makes me want to go back to the way I learned how to cook ribs.
