Excellent answer!
That's the one we try to encourage,rather than focusing on all the little things-besides cooking the meat.
The question from experienced cooks is usually"is the cooker going"?
Over the years we learn from fast Eddy,cooking comps:
Make sure the cooker is running
Put big meats on,about 8-9PM
Go to motel,sleep thru the night
Come back about daylight ,to get ribs on and see what they are serving for breakfast.
Take a break,before prepping chicken.
