Nellie.
I was told, and so put in brackets that the BBKA teaches this.
You are quoting source material and so the pure version is what you say.
However what is ACTUALLY taught can be a very different matter.
For instance I heard recently that a very senior BBKA person insists that the smoker be held between the legs. A better recipe for back trouble you could not get with a hive. So what is supposed to be taught and what actually is are different matters.
