Trailblazer Brisket/Butt drippings

[Gonefishin]

Has anyone come up with a way to catch drippings for later use when cooking on the 340? Not a lot of head room.

I have the 700 and just use a disposable tinfoil pan. I will smoke for 12 or so hours and then move to the pan for 4 to 6 hours. It is always full of drippings when I'm done. I give them to my MIL, she uses it for gravy.

I save mine and mix it with birdseed for the birds come winter time.

I tried it on the 340 putting the butt on a cooking grate inside a aluminum foil pan about 2" deep. I didn't care for the final product, had problems getting much of a bark on it.

The real concern I would have is the birds depositing greasy squirts on my clean truck.

The truck is usually covered in snow come winter and leaving before sunrise and returning after sunset it's never a problem. It helps them thru the winter so I don't mind. I don't think they do either when it's below zero.
