Well, I'm giving it a shot. I fired up the WSM about an hour ago for my first high heat brisket that (hopefully) my friends and I will be eating tomorrow morning as we're tailgating for the Bears vs. Lions game.
So far it's been nothing short of a temperature roller coaster. For the most part I've been able to keep the temperature between 350 and 385 or so, but it's not as easy going as I'm used to with the WSM on a more traditional low and slow approach.
Any hints on keeping these higher temperatures steady would be greatly appreciated!
Also, anyone have any thoughts on brisket breakfast burritos? I'm going to give them a try tomorrow at the tailgate. Have some egg beaters I'm going to scramble, and will toss the egg in a tortilla with a slice of brisket, a spoonful of Ro-Tel, and some cheese.
