- The cut and the prep, staged the night before
- Cook-day timeline keyed to a 6:00 PM dinner
- Milestones and the bone-pull test that makes the final call
- Finish, pull, and serve
- Contingency branches, with the hold as the built-in shock absorber
- Print-ready pit-side cheat sheet and a cook journal page
WHO IT’S FOR
Backyard gear, honest plans
Written for ordinary backyard gear: an offset, a kettle, or a kamado. No restaurant equipment, no pellet-cooker assumptions.
The plan gives you decision points, not guarantees: times are ranges, temperatures are checkpoints, and the final call belongs to the tests each pack teaches. It pairs with the free Pitwright app, which runs the same kind of cook live, but stands alone on paper at the pit.
