    Inaugural Cook

    After a few delays for various reasons, I was able to kickoff 2024 with the first cook on my LSG. I decided to go with two split turkey breasts, as turkey is my wife’s favorite smoked/grilled meat. I made a quick mop sauce for the cook, which added to the flavor nicely. Finished off the meal with some mashed Yukon gold potatoes.

    While I still have a lot to learn about this pit, it held temperature like a champ. I’m thinking about getting a fan to control temperatures, even though I’m not sure I really need it as stable as this pit appears to be. I’m also not certain how best to attach it.

      Thanks! This is far and away the nicest pit I’ve ever used. I look forward to learning with each cook going forward!

      Send it to me......I'll cut some holes in that bad boy for your fan, eventually, after months of beta testing.

      Nice brea......nevermind, nice turkey and nice subtle smoke/gas ring.

        Thanks! I appreciate the very generous offer! 😂

        I used a little apple wood on the cook so as to not overpower the flavor of the meat.

                  Welcome to the LSG Adjustable Cult! Your cooks look Great. I've used a BBQ Guru and Fan on mine several times for low and slow. Works good IMO.

                    Nice.

                    How/where do you attach the fan? As the grill was a gift from my wife (after years of my research), it does not have any pre-drilled controller holes.
