Ever accidentally choked the fire on a live smoke? Well, I did tonight.
I was smoking a couple of racks of BBs on the kettle and temps spiked a bit while the lid was off so I closed the top vent (bottom was already closed).
. Did some other stuff in the yard and came back to see how things were going. DOH!! Needed a defibrillator. CLEAR!! Quickly fired up 10 or so briqs in the chimney and opened everything up. They should have been done in half an hour from now, but the fire was out for probably half an hour or so. I've never switched from low and slow to HH in one cook...I hope it turns out well.
