Very Hot but Awesome Cook

[hurricanedavid]

Heat index is the new buzz word in SW Florida. Today was 112F in the shade. My smoker read 98F before striking a fire so needless to say it warmed up fast.

One 18lb brisket and nine racks of St. Louis ribs were this weekend’s cook. The brisket went on Friday 6pm and off at 10am Saturday. Ribs on at 11am and off at 4pm. Cook temp was a steady 235F for the entire cook and smoke was mesquite followed by hickory. Following are a few pics, thanks for checking it out.:-o

You were a busy guy! Did you have a special occasion that called for all of those ribs?

If only your brisket was was like FL humidity.

Yes, a luncheon for 30 people. I also made 8lb of pulled pork and a 2x recipe of Wampas beans.

Nice cook and smoker. Did you get any sleep? How often did you have to manage the fire?

You sir are a trooper in this heat. We are all under the same high pressure bubble from the gulf. Your cook looks Great and your right, our 1st 100*F are free here too.

My stumps cooker is gravity fed and holds enough lump charcoal for about 15 hours cook time at 235F. Once the cook is set up and cooking I don’t look at it again until next morning.
