Rumor has it that I will be receiving my new FEC-100 in the next week or two.

So now it's time to develop a plan to season it.

My current plan is based on one main issue:

The local market only carries enhanced pork that I will not buy, but there is a CostCo near where I can and will purchase a two pack of pork shoulder / buts.

Here is what I'm thinking:
1.Do a few hours empty as suggested.
2.Do 10 – 15 Lbs of fat on a frogmat at 250 degrees 8 to 10 hours.
3.Do the pork.

Now here is my question, given that pellet usage is of no issue.
Which will give me the best seasoning:
1.Do the two porks sequentially
2.Do the two porks at the same time

I'm thinking number one but I'd love to get your opinions as to what will get me the best build up.

Tnx

Hum....Seeing that you are going to be dead after you receive it. I don't think I would worry about it. Big Grin I'll miss you man.


Freddie it may be time to talk to this guy again :-)

But seriously SW I'm working on her. (WAF)
Started by showing her all the empty space we have and explained how we NEED a replacement. I just have not explained the size yet.

Go with the both of them together. You have an FEC-100 now. And it likes big loads. I feel like mine actually likes it when I put two cases, 16 butts, on there to smoke.

But two is a good place to start. And the rest of your plans sound good.


I agree. Mine seems to love it when it has a load of pork butts and briskets with a few slabs of ribs thrown in for fun.
