Hey everyone, I've been lurking around for a while and decided to get signed up. I have gained a lot of knowledge from you all over the past few weeks and hope to keep learning and make a few friends. I have a Brinkmann Deluxe Charcoal Smoker. I know its not a Weber but hey, I do have a Weber charcoal chimney. Really now, I made a few of the basic mods like a slide cover for the bottom vent and a raised charcoal grate, also some new brackets to lower my top grate a couple of inches so I can do three BCCs at a time. I added a new temp gauge to the lid and boy am I happy. I did a five hour "high temp. slow cook" on a 9lb butt yesterday and it really turned out great. The meat was so tender that, as you can see in the second pic, it just fell off the bone...

I wish there was a good Q'Joint @ here...My 82 CX500 has a few more miles in her. If only I could pull my rig on two wheels... Shocked
