      You’re right about the temperature, but using anything other than water is just a waste. It won’t do anything to flavor the food because it’s simply evaporating the water out of whatever liquid you use, everything else in that liquid will stay behind in the pan. Save the beer to drink while your meat is smoking lol.

    I sure think adding that much lit charcoal will lead to a runaway fire that is hard to keep 220-250f. There is just to much fire burning at once to tame that beast. Lighting 4 or 5 briquettes and placing them on one side only will start a minion method and it will sit like a rock at good temps. Or do the snake method which is even better!

    Replace your rusty grate. Clean the new one at least every time after you heat it up, with a ball of foil and heat proof glove. It will stay clean-ish. Way better than that. U don't need the bricks. Get a better pan, one that won't melt. I use an old cornbread pan. It's okay to wash it out and reuse it, trust me.
    You can get a kettle grill that actually has some depth for $97 at Wally world. Expert grill 22". Buy some grill gasket (1/2" wide) and add it to lid and bottom of grill where ash catcher attaches. Cheap Kamado grill for $112. Get a good meat thermometer, have fun!

      I agree! I took temp readings on my Weber charcoal grill and I was easily north of 375 with what I thought was a moderate amount of charcoal. No one is smoking anything at that temp. Guess I just need to mess around with it.

    I heard moisture is bad for smoking because the moisture gets on the meat and evaporates, creating a cooling effect, like sweat, increasing stall lengths.
    and i dont personally smoke with water.
    also i usually dont "tent" smaller meats. jury is out on full packers. every second its hot, water is squeezed out of the fibers.

    You should put the wood down first cover its
    sides with unlit coals and top it with lit coals.

    You’re better off with the snake method (look it up!) Plus, chunk charcoal burns too hot and fast. It’s great for a steak but if you’re smoking ribs, use briquettes.

    I use the snake/coil method with tray in center.

    I did that with my Weber 26 3 years ago and rarely use it any other way.

    Don't for get to soak your wood in water before you place it on charcoal it helps so it won't burn fast
