    I have a old propane char broil bbq that i use charcoal in, and use the indirect method! I find i have to use a brick cut triangular to keep the lid open a little, but i always have a hard time cooking pork chops! Ive seared them, then moved to the side, ive tried indirect, and that doesnt work? What do i do???

    If you’re new to low and slow, we recommend starting with a good briquette and then as you gain experience start experimenting with hardwood as your primary fuel. Of course, it’s always best to choose what hardwoods are easily and cheaply available in your neighborhood. -BBQ Pit Boys

    Starter fluid is …
    Starter fluid is just a “method of ignition”, and does not affect the taste of the food if used properly.

    Selection of your wood/charcoal fuel is a matter of preference and experience. Our first preference is for oak, for long burning, steady fires, especially for open fire cooking, and in large side box smokers. When using a small kettle grill and/or smoker like the WSM bullet we have no issues with the Kingsford briquette especially when we are doing a long low and slow.

    Forgive my ignorance but I thought mody pros *hated* startet fluid, and absolutely hate the idea of slow N low cooking with Kingsford briquettes.

    I’d always assumed lump and/or natural hardwood charcoal (or just plain wood chunks) were the preferred method of fuel, along with starting with a chimney or some other non-lighter fluid method of ignition.

    Yes. Remember, fire gets its life with air. Turning down the dampers restricts the airflow, so the best way to control your grill temperatures is by opening or closing your dampers (top AND bottom).

    If you want a deep smoky flavor to your meat, soak your woodchips in cold water for about an hour, then put the soaked chips on top of the hot coals….the chips will just simmer, instead of burn up outright.

    If you want a subtle hint of smoke without the overpowering smoky effect, then just take a couple handfuls of chips (right out of the bag), and throw them on the coals…non-soaked in water.

    If your going to do that, use a very dark brew such as guniess. All that will happen is you’ll transfer some of the flavor over. But make sure to use a dark brew, or the outcome will be the same as water.
