How many full packers can I get in my 22" WSM at a time?
I ordered 100 pounds of whole packer briskets from my butcher last week. I will be picking them up later today, but I anticipate 6-8 briskets depending on size. My only time constraints are that I would like to have these cooked by late in the day on Monday. All of this meat will be sliced, vacuum sealed, and frozen for my wedding in 4 weeks. I plan to put the first few briskets on about 11:00 tonight (Friday). I was planning to on cooking L&S the whole time.
Has anyone has any success shoehorning 2 briskets per rack on a 22 WSM?
I have never done a HH brisket, would this be a better method based on the quantity I will be cooking? (I have 2-22" grills and access to a third if I need it.)
I looked at the capacity chart Chris has posted and he says 2. I have only ever needed to cook 1 brisket at a time before, so this is new territory for me. Any insights are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
