Did a 21 lb packer for a party today on the Rec Tec. Started it at 9pm last night, wrapped it this morning at 157 and then went in to work for a few hours. It hit 200 by 11am, so I turned the grill off with my phone, from work. Gotta love this Rec Tec. 

Got home about 12:30 and since it had rested fro 90 minutes already, I cut a few slices off the make sure it was okay for the BBQ. It's pretty good, not the best I've done but I used a commercial rub instead of just my salt and pepper rub, and it had very little 'smoky' flavor.  Smoke ring is there, but not brilliant. Overall, it's a good cook, and my wife liked it, and she doesn't like much of the stuff I make that has a smokey flavor.

Compare that to the last brisket I did on charcoal and wood. You can see the more brilliant smoke ring, better bark too.

Well not really quarantined any longer but did do some salmon, sausage and a spatchcock chicken on the Rec Tec over the weekend. All came out great. No pics of the chicken, it fell apart coming off the grill.

The new huge Weber Kettle charcoal grill is my go to grill since I got it for my birthday last month. The propane grill standing next to it makes one great HOLDER for the trays of ribs, steaks, and other items. :rofl: Have not used it since I got the Weber. 

Two pieces of apple wood on the coals gives an awesome smoke and flavor to anything that is on the grill. Today we did a big rack of pork ribs, portobello mushroom caps, asparagus, and stuffed clams. (A couple of pizza's for my little nieces also)

I don't think I am going back to using the propane grill anytime soon. Possibly never.
