I had some problems with keeping the temperature in the right range but overall, the beer can chicken smoking was a success.
Forgot to take pics.

The weather turned out so nice this weekend, that I decided against smoking the brisket and beef ribs. Instead, I worked in the yard all weekend. I'll try to get around to it this weekend.
So, should I make any other modifications to the smoker other than drilling a hole at the bottom?
What is the best type of fuel to use?
What is the best way to add fuel to the smoker?
Yeah. I've got the chimney for lighting them. I didn't have a lighter in my house so I was having to purposely catch rolled up paper towels on fire held in tongs on my electric stove.
I kept using the chimney to light the briquettes. Any idea on how much charcoal I should be putting on at what interval?
Observation: Very few threads where rubbing small butts is considered acceptable posting behavior.
Question #1: When you're smoking a pork butt, what's your target temp in the chamber?
Question #2: Any suggestions on where to get smoking fruit woods in the Triangle area?
I haven't tried this place just yet, as I just found this website last week.
