cxc5120 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 So im getting my second round of tangiers tomorrow and since I pretty much wasted my whole first batch trying to pack it the same way over and over, I thought I would see which method everyone else uses on here. Ive been hearing good things about snoopys method in the wiki section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hojo Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Snoopy's method has gotten the most success for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive been hearing good things about snoopys method in the wiki section.I pack as much as I can fit, I smash it down with my thumb, and pack more on top of that. Repeat until TIGHT and just a little bit above the ring. Foil tightly. Self taught, and it smokes beautifully 99.9% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trivial Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 QUOTE (cxc5120 @ Feb 24 2009, 06:26 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Why does this stuff have to be so diffecult.. you mainly just need to get your heat management downacclimate and Pack your bowl like Kevinhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlMvEp6HAK8DO your hole pattern sort of like raversx video but instead of big and a lot of holes on the outside you want to do the opposite... you want a few holes on the out side and not as big because your coals are going to be on the outside rim while smoking so all those holes will heat up the coals from you sucking in and make the tangier to hot and make heat management to hardhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjF8kRw1Q7A Also to remember after poking your holes you want to suck in from the bottom of the bowl so you can make sure you have no air restriction... after blow out and make sure your foil is tightAlso this video will show you a little about heat management... but remember to rotate your coals... dont be afraid to take a coal off.... and learn to push your coals to the outside rimhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zvN1cL1uik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trivial Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I also want to add in that I slowly heat up my bowl... I use two halves of one QL for 5 min ... Then add a half then another half then another... etc... this will make sure your tangiers will be perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inino Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 how long did you wait until you put that 3rd coal. keep the two and rotate them every 2 minutes for about 15 minutes then if it isnt smoking add the third one. Tangiers takes time to build up the heat and if you add too much it gets harsh. patience my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
