Did you try the charcoal trick to get the pink smoke ring yet?
thanks in advance.
Hey jjesq99,
yes I have tried the charcoal trick and did get a fainted ping smoke ring in the process. My problem at the time was that I forgot to put the charcoal since the beginning and did not keep an eye on it, Nevertheless, there was a pink smoke ring quite obvious which do not occur the few times before and without the charcoal.
That night I had 16 guys for dinner and just lost track of every think, almost.

HR:
Excellent, thank you. Some follow ups, if I may:
How much charcoal did you use?
What kind (the self lighting, etc.) did you use?
Finally, where exactly did you put it in the OBS?
thanks again; looking forward to trying it myself.

JJ,
I have used two good size charcoals (about third fist size) that I lit in a charcoal chimney. I placed them on the very bottom of the smoker next to the water bowl in a home made heavy duty foil plate. I would imagine had I paid more attention to that (and there was less Jack Daniels around) I would have added at least another patch half way through the smoke and would have gotten a very decent smoke ring.
I would be very interested in your outcome. I have the pics to prove it myself, but when I tried to down load the pics onto my computer, it turned out that my wife's camera chip was infected with a virus called sality. aa which gave me a a jolty scare for a few hours until I could get rid of it. Now all those pics I have can not be downloaded and I have to fogure out another way to do so.

HR, here is the solution, SMOKE SOME MO STUFF and take more pics. Then post them. ;D

I just need to get my business trip out of the way and then it is smoke galore as I start my vacation.
