As promised time for another cook on the BKO.
Now I have previously have done a smoke with briqs and one with briqs and lump and one with Oak splits.
When Broil King suggests lump as the recommended source of fuel they mean it.
I filled up the fire box with mesquite lump and lets see what happens:
Picked up a rack of beef back ribs..added some cheap yellow mustard and Jans Original rub
6 hours later (foiled for the last hour)
This Broil King Offset is one heck of a pit. I added lump maybe two times. When I did, I cracked the side fire box door to maintain temps. The offset stayed at 225 for the entire cook. I kept the rotodraft dampers wide open on the firebox and the smokestack. The BKO went to 225 and just stayed there...no adjustments at all.
This just might be the missing link in the offset world
