Pretty much the only way I smoke ribs or any short cooks on the kettles. I find for my use it saves me on fuel and wood. You can pretty much dial in when you want the smoke to stop. I find myself only using 2 or three chunks on most stuff. I can get more than one cook out of a full ring as well. I also use it to add smoke flavor to things I am grilling. I am more apt to do that as there is usually at least a portion of a snake ready to be lit with the torch most of the time. A good way to add smoky flavor to burgers and such before finishing on the gas grill. If I'm doing a long cook on a kettle I use Mikey's basket. Not because of the burn time as the snake actually burns longer at the 225 temp I like to cook at in my experience. The offset placement of the weber lid exhaust is the reason. When I go to spritz my ribs I also rotate the exhaust opposite from wherever the snake is burning. When I am doing a shoulder/butt I like to set and forget so I use the basket. One top off when I wrap at the stall gets it done. Sorry if that's too much info. I don't get to post much so I am getting my thoughts in when I can.Weber Smoky Joe

Quick question. Cooking pork butts tomorrow using this method. What's the best way to hit Target temp? Have vents full open until close to Target and then start closing bottom vent? Or start with it partially closed?

Generally speaking...The right sized snake will maintain temps just fine without much assistance...Your mileage may vary...Weather/wind can have it's effect...Just try it and see how it works for youCraig
