First of all, Thanks Meathead - the book recipes were followed to a T and it was considered by all the absolute best BBQ they had ever had. The Crack N Cheese was also a big hit. I did have a few issues controlling the fire in my WSM even with the Pitmaster IQ 110 - about halfway through the cook, the fire took off on me, getting well up over 260 degrees from 225. I got it back under control and held it at 235 for the remainder of the cook. A 6.5 pound shoulder cooked for about 11 hours - DEEElicious! I dry brined for 18 hours prior and used the Memphis dust. Also made the Lexington Dip for the sauce - funny thing, with that on the table, nobody touched the Sweet Baby Rays sauce.....

We have two weber kettle grills (one LARGE and one small/average), the SnS and the Weber Smokey Mountain 18" smoker. We use both natural lump charcoal and KNB for smoking and measure our temps with a Maverick 733, thermopen and MK4. Favorite beer depends on what is cooking (alt answer is yes).
