    questions re: texas brisket

    Getting my grill set up, 1 more question. I checked the temp on the grill where meat will go, and when dome temp said 300, probe hadn't even hit 200. Reluctant to cook with dome temp that high. Last time I used done temp and 9 pound packet was done in 13 or 14 hours, about right. Would u use...

    questions re: texas brisket

    One more question. I got a slab of ribs to cook. I figure as long as I'm smoking a brisket for Friday, might as well use that smoke for ribs thursday. Can I cook them at the same time? can I just throw the ribs on top of the brisket?

    questions re: texas brisket

    Thanks Dave. I do agree 100% that the kettle is the wrong tool for a brisket, but it's what I've currently got to work with. If I put a big stack of wood on before bed, and it dies down below 200 before I waked up, is that a deal killer, or can I just restoke in the morning and have it ready...

    questions re: texas brisket

    I'm going to cook a whole brisket on my performer 22.5" I've cooked one before, and while delicious, it didn't have that red smoke ring. Last time I held fire between 275 - 300 for about 13 hours. This time, I plan to cook lower and slower, to try to get a smoke ring. I'll shoot for 225...

    Advice for first smoke

    Just bought a performer 22.5, planning to smoke a brisket tomorrow. I have the 2 charcoal holders and no other accessories such as smokenator, hinged grate or whatever. Is there a link on here that shows how some of the better chefs handle the job? I may get some of the accessories later, but...

    Hello, I live in San Antonio, TX. I just bought a used performer 22.5 Gold one touch (I think that's what it's called). I used to have a big char broil charcoal grill, but around 12 years ago my wife wanted it gone because it didn't look good, and she wanted the convenience of gas. I don't...
