The Adventures of the Halstead Fam!

Lump Charcoal 2

Don’t put fluid on lump. We’ll try it!

  • One chimney full of lump.
  • 6# chicken breasts
  • 2 cheap hot dogs(!)
  • Chimney lit at 6:58pm
  • Dumped at 7:15
  • Did a better job spreading the coals
  • Chicken on high side at 7:18
  • Flip @ 7:20
  • Moved to indirect 7:22 pm, lid on, vents open
  • Skinny pieces hit temp and off at 7:28
  • Bigger pieces still going at 7:45
  • Cover off
  • Everything done by 7:50

Still learning to control temp, but it felt good to leave the lighter fluid out!
