I am 2 days new to FEC cooking. I just bought a used 300. I have ran a couple of tiny batches of cheap meats
( bologna,hotlink, brats,etc. just to play around. My timing is a little off with the light loads so far. This thing cooks really fast compared to others I have tried. I threw an 8lb dry rubbed pork loin on tonight @225, and was expecting a 4-6 cook. I checked it at 2.25hrs and it was at 155 already. I wrapped it with juice and threw it back on for another 45min. It was the most tender and juicy loin I have ever had. My question is, are my times going to change alot with bigger loads and different types of meat thrown into the mix. I expect that they will, but I would love experienced opinions. Thanks in advance.
I just don't want to waste all this time figuring it out with light loads to be suprised with a major change in everything with a semi full load.
