Flipped and added a fatty(what smoke is complete without a fatty???? DUUUHH). Fatty is a Johsonville Hot and Spicy brat filled with sauteed shrooms and some Kroger Mexican Cheese blend.

I started em at 225, then an hour and a half into it I boosted it up to 300(When I added the fatty). The last hour was at 350(for a grand total of 4 hours 10 minutes). Man, did the chicken come out JUICY!! I put the taters in at the same time as the fatty and they came out PERFECT too!! I've already been put in charge of Thanksgiving!!

The mods that I made were to the pan that holds the charcoal. I unhooked the legs, and reattatched them to the outside and I made some air holes to be able to control the temp better. Here's a link that outlines it: ECB Mods (http://www.randyq.addr.com/ecb/ecbmods.html)

Ohh yeah.........I did the charcoal rails too..........
