    Labor Day brisket

    I once put a 17lb'er on my 18"wsm, real tight fit too lol. I like cooking my briskets whole too, but sometimes I do like to separate the point and flat. Put one on each level, makes it way easier to if I plan on making burnt ends with the point.

    New Weber pellet grills for 2020

    How is that the Lg one is going for $1200, wifi and all that computer junk in it, but the charcoal summit was around $2200? No motor, no computer, no wifi, but $1000 more? Come on Weber.

    First time smoking. EVER. Whole packer prime brisket and pork butt

    Great looking pix man! That brisket is awesome! Just a couple things to comment on: 13hrs in and still in the stall is why I never cook at 225° it works, but it just takes way too long in my opinion. Experiment with different temps and methods, like foiling. I smoke at 275-300° for 8hrs...

    **Fail** BP method for brisket - too fast/undercooked

    I've cooked a lot of briskets and I find it very hard to believe that a 14lber was out of the stall after only 4hrs at 275-300°(especially as that is the temps that I smoke at). That and only 60mins later and it was at 210°? In BP? I've tried the BP a few times and found it just doesn't push the...

    Basic question

    I'm totally with Enrico on this one! Bury them, do a minion start and let the wsm warm up. best ring on a brisket this way! Oh, and don't add any more chunks during the cook, and I'll use 3-4 or 1 big chunk.

    How to properly smoke on a WSM

    I too am a believer in burying your wood chunks. I could never get a good ring on briskets till I started doing that, and I get good smoke too. I just put 2-3 chunks in, or one big one, and don't add any more during the cook. Try it a few times you might like it!

    amount of wood chunks

    On my wsm's I use 3-4 chunks on briskets and butts. Ribs 2-3 chunks, chicken usually just 2 chunks. it really doesn't take that much to get a good smoky flavor. 11 or so chunks that you were using is way too much.

    Pulled pork for 200

    Sorry but had to comment. a 1/4lb raw weight burger patty is not 12oz, 1lb is 16oz, so 1/4lb= 4oz. Never the less, I agree on the 100lbs raw weight of pork butt. I always cook bone in and I always go with about 1/2lb per person raw weight, but it doesn't hurt to add a couple more butts...

    Lessons Learned From First Cook

    I like to let the smoker get around 300+ before I put the meat on. I'll run without water and shoot for around 275 °. Heating the water up b4 is a good idea, and that's what I would do when I ran with water. My advice is to don't worry too much about what temp you're running at. As long as...
