I know Jim, but when they are patting you on the back, treating you like the ?Rock Star of Bar-B-Q? it?s hard to be humble. The WSM just sits there doing its work. I feel like Minni Vinni doing lip sync! (Taking all the credit for someone else?s work).

For a poker party I did two butts and a brisket on Friday night with the minion method. This method is SO good it ought to be in the Weber manual. I started the cook at 9:00 pm. At 12:30am threw a few extra coals on and went to bed. The next morning at 9:00 am the WSM was still cooking...

Those are great pics Brian!

Like Jim said, It's a Texas thing...

Thanks everyone! I got some great ideas of how much I need. The amount of knowledge available here is incredible.

I did two Butts this weekend and gave one to my brother?s family and brought one to work. As some you know, Pork is not done much in South Texas, where Beef is king. But the reaction to ?Mr. Brown? has been strong. Everyone loves it and now there is talk of doing them for our in-office Xmas...

Being from Texas I had never had a Boston butt until someone on the board gave me the suggestion to try it with the brisket on bottom and butts on top. The pork was the best I'd ever had. I am thinking to doing 4 this weekend. Two on top and two on the bottom. The people who were over to eat...

Wow! I think I might have to try that this weekend.

Hi Bruce, I think I might have it too. I sitting here with 72 lbs of kingsford, worried that I don't have enough on hand!

I'll second that. Did my first Minion method this weekend and it turned out great. I didn't touch the fire for 8 hours.

Hi Keri, What the worst part is my mother?s family is from the Westville/Watts area about 60 miles east of Tulsa. My cousins never let me forget when OU beats Texas. And it?s doubly bad when Arkansas beat us too.

Thanks Sonny, People went crazy over the boston butt. As you know brisket is king here and I had never had the pulled pork before. They stipped that pork butt to the bone. I was going to take a picture, but all I had left was the bone. People are already want to know when the next cookout is.

Just a final note on the overnight smoke with the Minion method. I was pleased with the brisket, but the ?Mr. Brown? pork butt is what really surprised me. It was so good that it was gone in 30 minutes. People couldn?t get enough of it. It felt good having everyone tell me how good it was...

I was cooking a pork butt and brisket using the ?Minion Method?. Butt was on top and brisket on the bottom. I started at 10:00pm last night and just pulled the butt off after checking the internal temp. It looks great. Took a small sample and tastes wonderful. I think the brisket needs...

Thanks Russ, Put the brisket on the bottom rack an hour ago with the midnight method. Got a boston butt on top waiting for the Texas OU game. You're right about the warehouse club brisket. It had a nice layer of Fat about 1/4 inch on top. I had do a bare mimium of trimming.

Hi Jeff, I'm in the same boat. This is my first brisket also. Thank goodness for this board. I could have never done this with the webber inst. manual. Based on all the good advice here, I think we will do OK!

Sonny, Thought I would let you know I just got back from Sam's with a brisket and two Boston Butts. I will let you know how they come out. I am hoping to have them ready in time for the Texas-OU game. If Texas loses I will have Q ready to help me with the loss. Thanks

Way to go Rob. I am nervously anticipating my first brisket this weekend. How much charcoal did you start with?

Sonny thanks for the idea; I think I will do that. I sliced the one leftover country rib last night into 1/8 inch thick slices, warmed them up and put them on some home made fresh flour tortillas I picked up from the local Tex-Mex restaurant with some of their fresh salsa. I knew then that...

Sonny you are so right! I was dying to do a brisket, but I was afraid of failure the first time out. But now I am thinking of doing a brisket for my next project. Brisket is my first choice when eating Q. What happened to the Tide? I wanted them to beat Arkansas after Arkansas beat my...
