Party in the backyard yesterday. I did a pork butt, pulled chicken and 6 racks of baby backs. After some sage advice from Pappy Q on getting more of a stick burner flavor from the Limo, I think I am finally dialing it in to close to what my offset Pitmaker produced. I used a mixture of what was left from B&B oak briquettes and Gordon's choice briquettes. What I did different this time was I used a beer can chicken rack, turned upside down, over my ash pan. I then used hickory mini splits, which I cut in half and placed side by side with about a 1/2 inch of space between them. Keeps them up out of the ash, lets the ash fall, and keeps a nice long burn on the inside edges, which produced a very nice thin blue smoke. Had to replace the splits about 3 times. Wife said the pulled pork was dead on what I got off the stick burner. When I get around to it, I'll actually make and expanded metal cover for the ash pan, but for now the chicken rack is working perfectly. Sorry, didn't take any pics.
