I can't post photos because it was devoured... I think I let self doubt creep in. I cut that thing up... was worried that I butchered it. The only real casualty was that there wasn't much of a point to make burnt ends out of... Hit temperature about an hour before dinner. Let that sucker...

Collective smoking brain: I've done about 10+ briskets or so now. I've got it down pretty well, but I just saw something beyond what I've seen on other briskets: 10 pound, whole brisket. Fattiest brisket I've ever seen. I trimmed... trimmed... and trimmed... ultimately cut out about 2 pounds...

Good morning, I've been using a recipe for a BBQ sauce for about a year now that I really like... but I have a continued problem: I can't keep the butter from separating out. Admittedly, it's a lot of butter - two sticks. I'm going to add the butter in small increments this morning and whisk...

Thanks Jeff - great feedback... read through a bunch of Harry Soo stuff this morning... I've wondered how cooking at higher temperatures would work. Interesting to read the methods of both Soo and Rendezvous. All the more to consider :) Bill

I've been smoking, pretty regularly, for about a year and a half now. It's become a bit of an addiction - but a good one. (I fear what will happen if I start home brewing). My brisket game is TIGHT. I've got people lining up for pulled pork... But my rib game has been GOOD, but not GREAT...

I was skeptical, but those claws work surprisingly well

They were... Here's the final rundown: Lit the first chimney at 12:30 AM. Had all 4 shoulders in the WSM at about 1:15 AM. As you can see at about 2;00 am, had some doubts about how shoulders were configured... Reconfigured as I didn't want one tipping over and touching side of smoker...

That's exactly what happened... so far, so good... happy with how temps are progressing. As mentioned, burning through a lot of fuel... but all good.

We're all loaded up and smoking... but I don't have as much real estate as I thought... I've got the shoulders sitting on their side, fat facing out. Still have space between each shoulder. Hesitant to lift the hood up, but I've still got enough margin of error where I could lift it one more...

[/URL][/IMG] Firing it up in an hour or so... thanks for the suggestions folks...

Team, Longtime lurker, first time poster! Doing my first quadruple shoulder smoke on my WSM. Each shoulder weighs 9-10. Dinner at 6 PM tomorrow. Pretty decent at this by now, but unsure of how that much mass will affect smoke. What time would you start smoking?
