    Is it really THIS easy?

    Konrad, I am beginning to believe in mopping! The brisket had a great bark on it and so does the butts. This smoker is like nothing I ever tried. Going on 14 hours and it is still at 245 - 250*. Brisket done, butts at 190* now. Going to take 'em off at 15 hours or 195 - 200*. They about fell...

    Gonna try my first brisket, finally! need help

Used the Midnight Brisket rub recipe from this site. average temp was 235 - 240* for 13 1/2 hours. Some of the Southern Sop for the butts ran on it from the butts above...

    Is it really THIS easy?

    LOL Steve, I guess you have the same opinion! Going on 9 hours now. Still holding 240* perfectly. I don't normally baste or turn either, but was going to follow the Renown Mr. Brown recipe as it is written this time. Then I will do it again and just leave it in there next time and see if I can...

    What's Your Favorite Commercial Sauce

    I like Scotts BBQ sauce. I too am not really into the sweet stuff on brisket and pulled pork. Makes a great finishing sauce for pork!

    First smoke/First post - Pork butts and brisket

    Hey Bob, it seemed like getting a good butt here in TX is as hard as getting a brisket in other parts of the country! I finally asked the meat manager at Sams and he said he has them in the back. Uses them to make country style ribs! No demand for the whole butt. So now I know I can go...

    First smoke/First post - Pork butts and brisket

    I appreciate the replies! It's forecast to be in the mid 50's this weekend with rain, but my smoking nook is covered and surrounded by house on 3 sides. Going to do a bunch of ribs, chicken thighs and sausage in the beast (Bandera) so I don't want to have to worry too much about the WSM as I...
