A big thanks to those who looked in on my request and/or commented! Now a quick followup that might prove useful to others:
Found my SnS directions and followed them. One probably big thing........I located a small lid leak which I clamped and Kettle settled in at 234* and stayed within a degree for almost the entire cook! Seared at warp 10 when they reached 135*. Best chops I have ever cooked!
Need help with use of new SnS charcoal basket on 18" Jumbo Joe
I am planning to smoke two nice pork chops later today. I will be using a Weber 18" Jumbo Joe using my SnL charcoal basket. Just two chops won't take much more than a hour I expect. I have lost my directions for my almost new (I have used it 3 times) SnS basket and am wondering about how many briquettes to put into the basket. I am thinking perhaps a third full?? I plan to light with parafin cube on one end so that the fire will start on one end only and "snake" its way around. I hope to keep the heat on indirect side between 225 and 250, take to approx 130-135, then move to direct and sear to 145-150. Suggestions, especially as to amount of charcoal any other recommendations are requested! Thanks.
Oh, and if someone knows a link to download a new set of directions for the SnS basket usage, I would surely appreciate that as well! Thanks!! Tom
