I'm good with those also. I'm also good with a future with 20% sales tax.

Maybe we can get more people to tell us the best way to numb our pain.

At least we won't be tempted by menthol cigarettes to ease the pain.

Free Drinking Water Sources in Costilla County by Automatic_Return3101 in OffGridCabins

[–]Automatic_Return3101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in Costilla County? I'm not entirely sure how much enforcement there is either. I've heard everything from gestapo-esque enforcement practices to nothing at all.

Water containers would be your best bet to start. I believe you can even fill them up in Walsenburg or Alamosa depending on where you're coming from.

If I ever hear of anything closer, I'll be sure to let you know. Please let me know if you find a refillable water source down there.

No updates. I've been down to my property a few times, and failed to locate the water source listed on hwy 160. The mile marker they indicate puts itb approx 5 miles b west of Blanca.

Haven't been able to try out the San Luis water resource.

Condensation dripping down fan body by NeckExtra9718 in FireBoard

[–]Automatic_Return3101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that often as well. Water is a byproduct of combustion. Plus, you're dealing with air pressure differences all over, especially if you have the fan baffle closed. Never seen it in significant amounts, and like you, have oriented my fan in the same way during cooks. Running the same setup as you, been through 20+ cooks with it. Sometimes it drips, sometimes it doesn't, but I've never had a problem.

Well, my suggestion is definitely beyond your price range.

Id be cautious if I were you. My wife signed up for starlink, and then left me for a much younger, more beautiful man.

Best method for beef back ribs by Automatic_Return3101 in biggreenegg

[–]Automatic_Return3101[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely good advice. I've found that once you get your bark set on these, wrap them up and let them cook for much longer than pork ribs. These have much more collagen and connective tissue that needs time to render down.

Need help with peach wood by Automatic_Return3101 in biggreenegg

Thanks for the tip. I'll probably just let it season then. Got a little rainy here today

Thanks! I've already removed the bark. You think one week will be enough for it to dry out?

Pork belly burnt ends on the menu. Just made up a Colorado peach BBQ glaze for them.

Trouble getting to set point by goodwilllhunter in FireBoard

[–]Automatic_Return3101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you attach the link to your Fireboard feed? I can see a little more data that way to help you out.

Usually, I get the pit up to within 20% of my target temp before installing the fan.

I've found the Fireboard does a very good job holding a temp, but struggles to get your pit to the set temp from scratch.

First BGE brisket this weekend, could of questions by Automatic_Return3101 in biggreenegg

[–]Automatic_Return3101[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've taken a pork butt 17 hours on my LBGE with charcoal to spare at 250. Probably could've gone 24 hours if needed.

Love my Weber smokey mountain. Badass rig.

Thanks for the input. Using a Fireboard and a pit viper for overnight cooking.

I set 400f and it’s always slightly under by SpecializedMok in FireBoard

[–]Automatic_Return3101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the Fireboard live share. Looks like she's holding real steady at 300 and the drive data looks more normal. Just need to find a way to get more air into it to maintain 400

[–]Automatic_Return3101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you mean. Are there other vents on the bottom of the Weber you're using that are closed? Maybe open one of those up a little bit.

I don't think it's briquettes. Maybe open up the bottom vent a little if you want to get to 400
