Just bought a Pit Barrel Smoker from Colorado Barbeque Outfitters here in Colorado Springs. I had to replace my COS and needed something better now that I am more confident in my smoking ability. I did a lot of research on this and decided to pull the trigger when they announced on Friday that they had two in stock.
I bought it, got it home and set it up. 30 mins total! Then I lit it and while the coals were heating up, I prepared the ribs. Then I hung them just like the instructions on the web site. All told from store to ribs cooking: 1 hour!
Tomorrow I plan on doing a brisket, but I am only doing a 6 pounder as I didn't want a lot of left overs. Anyone that has used one have a ball park figure on 6 lbs vs a 13lb packer? I was going to figure half the time...
Looking forward to discussing this a lot more.
Happy smoking!
