Winter time snow/ice/inclement weather cooking pics!

[Huskee]

Bump!

I'll add this, although it's a repost from my chuck roast post from a couple weeks ago.

[Jon Solberg]

Man we had some cold arse days this winter. It was kinda surreal.

[Jon Solberg]

Hey it warmed up a bit that day!

[Marauderer]

Yes it did. Powder springs hit 74*F hi today. Not trying to rub it in but, Spring is on the way.

Sorry Huskee can't help here in Florida, pronounced Flor rid aaaaaaaa.

[Huskee]

(Guy) FLBuckeye Marauderer we have friends vacationing in FL right now. They have rubbed it in already via Instagram. I guess when it's 110 for you I can rub it in that it's only 75 here, lol.

[(Guy)]

True but the heat is not messy.

[FLBuckeye]

The high is Tampa rarely gets above 93 but the humidity can be a bit much at times

It'd been recommended elsewhere that I post my 'inclement' weather photo here. I don't know about 'inclement' (definition: physically severe) as much as inconvenient. I smoke / grill all year round. When it's wet I'll put the patio umbrella over the smoker and keep going. Here's my baby before last weekend's smoke of whole chicken and grilled ribeye steaks.

[Marauderer]

Yep, this is the correct place. One persons inclement is another's fun and challenging!!

For me and the rest of us in the north country, a little snow on the ground isn't a big deal. I just thought this picture was kinda cool. I took this right before I loaded it into the PBC. This is my charcoal set up for overnight cooks in cold a$$ weather. I get the most charcoal into the PBC basket by stocking the briquettes vertically and leaving the middle open for the red hot coals. I always load and light my basket out of the PBC. After I dump the coals into the basket, I use a hook to lower the basket into the PBC. This basket took me past 14 hours with no fiddling!! There is some snow in the picture so I thought it passed the test for a inclement weather cook. If you you could feel the temp outside you would certainly agree. (-5 F)

Great pics!

[Huskee]

Great pic Spinaker, would fit in the Feed The Flame thread too.

[(Guy)]

Spinaker, that is a great idea stacking the coals. What did you cook for 14 hours? The way you placed the wood chunks all around puzzles me because I thought you wanted all the smoke in the beginning when the meat is cold. Enlighten me on this.

[richinlbrg]

Thank you for asking this, Guy. I have the same question.

[richinlbrg]

Can't find the "what's the temp where you are" topic, so I'll post here that it is 2.7*F here in Northern VA this morning.

[chudzikb]

It was 0 in central PA, warming up now in the low single digits. Pork butt out in the garage over night, life is good.

[carolts]

Finally dug out the PBC...my son and I are enjoying a pre-cook adult beverage around the fire pit. Harpoon cider for him, Baxter Pamola XTRA Pale Ale for me. Tomorrow it's pork shoulder, and corned beef round and brisket. It's finally starting to melt here and we'll have temps in the 40s for the next few days. Now if they'd only fix the Commuter Rail!

[richinlbrg]

carolts AWESOME!!!

[Huskee]

carolts that is an awesome picture! I think I would be framing that one as a fun memory of the record 2015 winter.

[carolts]

thanks, Huskee. I have it as the desktop on my Mac. It's melted a few feet since the height of the accumulation. We're still trying to find one of our "rock" speakers and the chairs were frozen to the patio. Good times!

[carolts]

The beginning of the cook from last weekend. By the end there was no snow or ice within roughly 12" of the barrel.

[fuzzydaddy]

I'll get this post going for 2016.

The white stuff is really piling up here in Pensacola, FL......... Please don't beat me up too bad for this, and yes I know there's no grill in the picture.

[Huskee]

Inclement indeed, look at those puffy clouds!

[richinlbrg]

Ohhh, fuzzydaddy , that was just uncalled for!
Cruel.

[Breadhead]

👍

[fuzzydaddy]

Beautiful, and everyday is really nice! I head home tomorrow and suspect it will be a longer than normal drive as we are expecting 5-8" of snow today.

[Jon Solberg]

Man, no gas, no gill cover, no bad weather. Whats next? hehehehehe

[Breadhead]

Jon Solberg ...

Hmmm... Either an earthquake or the state falling into the Pacific Ocean.🙊

Who knows... I just go with the flow.👍
