Just wanted to say thanks for all the helpful info in this thread. I reheated brisket and pulled pork in foodsaver bags for a great July 4th meal - had a low simmer, put in 4 bags of bbq, stabilized at 150 degrees. Let them slowly come to temp while I prepped everything else and then served a...

Thanks guys. John, to answer your question re water - I have the modified larger water pan (the brinkmann charcoal) which I filled at the beginning. It ran out probably in the last 2-3 hours of the cook, temps ran up to high 200s which at that point I always think is fine, especially for the...

that did it Larry, thanks. Brisket was good, just not as good as the pulled pork - I had also had it frozen for a couple months so that might have impacted it.

having issues posting inline pics, but if you click on any of the links the album comes up.

Did my first overnight cook on Saturday, two butts over one brisket. Started at 8pm, took off brisket in the AM, butts midday. - minion start of Wicked Good Weekend Warrior lump with mix of pecan and apple wood - 12 hours on the brisket, 18 on the butts (butts were not completely thawed out...

Thanks, as always Kevin - and a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everybody at VWB!

Have the same issue, slightly different question - if I split a roast into two, would it take 20 min / lb (or there about) times 9 lbs or 18 lbs? I'm sure I should know the answer to that (and I'd assume 9 lbs), but want to be certain.

Smoked standing rib roast for me, plus some grilled sausage and polenta on the performer and other italian goodies (lasagna / caprese etc.)

Perfect, thats what I thought. I'm getting it from a local butcher, so will be just wrapped in typical butcher wax paper - should I wrap it in plastic, or does that matter? thanks for the quick response

If I get a standing rib roast on Friday the 21st, and cook it on the 25th (keeping it in a fridge in between), does that pose any food safety risks? anything that I can do to be more rather then less safe in terms of what kind of container to keep it in / wrapped in plastic vs. not etc? Can't...

Not to thread jack, but on a related note - how long do you guys typically boil the bags to reheat (assuming straight from the freezer into boiling water, and assume a ~4 person serving size / portion)? In my experience, I find 15-20 minutes is about right, but I wonder if I could go quicker -...

Thanks - I figured it was probably fine but a little confirmation is always good.

I keep my Genesis in the garage normally, but was thinking about moving it to a porch on the side of the house. My question relates to smoke marks - the porch is covered, and the "ceiling" / roof is about 8 or 9 feet above the ground - my concern is that if I grill / smoke regularly on the...
