How to smoke it

rules of thumb
  • Time: plan on about 50 minutes to 1 h 15 min for a 4.88-inch size.
  • Pace: about a puff a minute keeps it cool and lets the flavors change from third to third. Do not inhale.
  • Before lighting: cut just above the cap line, toast the foot evenly, and take a cold draw to check it.
