I got a strong smell of ammonia right after I poured on a second

wasn't any meat on the fire yet, so I figure it will be OK.

Is ammonia a byproduct of wood distillation or did a cow **** on my
lump?

You might want to have a word or two with your cat.

This wasn't a urine-ammonia smell, this was an ammonia-ammonia
smell. I smelled it again when I went to stir the lump before using
it to grill, but neither the smoked pork butt or the grilled chicken
tasted any different.

You didn't spill a bottle of aspirin into the lump bag, didja?
