    Beef loin flap meat steaks ???

    The orlando Costco sells flap meat around $6.99lb. That price is high. We just marinate, cook fast, slice against the grain. Usually they are very tender.

    Dirty fire for a high-heat cook

    Maybe I misread this but are you lifting the lid to turn the grates every 15 minutes? Or are you just spinning the chamber? I’ve cooked many dozens of briskets using high-heat with mostly really good results using the 18. I try and maintain temps at 325 and higher throughout the cook. I wrap...

    Beef loin flap meat steaks ???

    I paid around 6.99 last weekend from Costco in orlando. Marinate and cook at high temp. Lots more flavor than a flank steak.

    High Heat Brisket question

    I’ve cooked lots of packers and most of the time the max cooking time is around 4.5-5 hours. I cook in the 325-350 range for most of the these cooks. I wrap when the color is right, usually between 2.5-3 hour mark.

    Whats your opinion on Charcoal Lump or Briquetts

    I am a 100 % lump user. Nothing wrong with charcoal, but I like the clean burn of lump. I use Picnic, B&b, wicked good, royal oak among others.

    Pros and cons of using a Cooking Log

    When I bought my first smoker 10-12 years ago boston butts were $1.19lb, brisket was $1.58lb at SAMs. Baby backs were $2.29, eye round $2.29, pork loin $1.49. Wings were $1.29, boneless thighs $1.49. Everything has gone up around 50% since. Ugh

    High Heat Brisket Method - A Compilation

    I wouldn't use any sugar for a HH cook. I've been doing HH cooks for years now, and still enjoy the process ending up with consistent results.

    Three Pork Butt Questions

    I don't remove anything from a butt. In fact, the best part of the butt is the thin layer of meat between the false fat cap and the fat cap itself.

    Brisket - What am I doing wrong?

    I pull my briskest when there is just a slight resistance to my probe. I don't temp them at all, as it's just a feel kind of thing. I cook them hh at 300 plus, foil at about the 2-2.5 hour mark, then let it cook about another's 1.5-2 hours until the feel seems right. I let the brisket rest...

    Water pan empty or full?

    I rarely use water except on an overnight cook.....and usually for timing purposes so the butts won't finish too early.

    Cue'ing my first Pork shoulder tomorrow--using Chris Lilly's Shoulder/injection recip

    I put 18 lbs of butts on just before 7am, and should have them ready by 4. I just run the smoker wide open without water and the wsm will run around 275, and maybe higher if the sun ever comes out again. If I need to speed things up, then I'll either play with the smoker to get it to 325, or...

    Adding wood to charcoal?

    I prefer fruitwood with poultry. Go easy on the amount of the wood used though.
