Similar to the other charcoal tests I have done for fun and to offer some insights into different charcoals. I fill the same starter chimney with charcoal, weigh it, light it, and then the flames hit near the top and go into the Gateway Drum Smoker. The Flame Boss 500 regulates the set temperature to 230F, and we can see how hard the fan has to work to do this. We can see the temperature fluctuations measured by the Flame Boss, and we compare these to the readings from the TermaQ, a calibrated thermometer.
Description
White Quebracho Restaurant Grade Charcoal is designed for a unique flavour and extra-long burn time. It can be used in restaurants and professional outdoor barbecues, but it can also be used on domestic barbecues for those who wish to use larger pieces.
