    part smoke and oven finish questions...

    Hello all, i am thinking of doing a chuck roast and a point cut brisket (if i can find one) for Easter. I was hoping to smoke the meat for a few hours to get the smoke flavor and finish in oven since my attention span is lacking and i havent mastered keeping my temps stable lol. I would like...

    Basic Brisket Smoke

    Good evening everyone! I separated the flat from the point in order for the brisket to fit in my vertical smoker.  My question is which cut should I monitor for temps?  And since i planed to wrap at 170 do I go ahead and wrap both like it is still one piece? HELP THANKS

    I have a follow up question about the finishing sauces....do most of you pour them on immediately or is it kept on the side like BBQ sauce?

    I couldnt take it anymore!!   So I un-foiled it after two hours and thankfully its still pretty moist!  Not juicy, but moist.  For the 1st time I'll take it!  I think next time I will try foiling it at 160* or so and see how that works out.  I would have liked it to be a little smokier.  The...

    #@$% I was afraid of that!  Since your helping me out by taking it off my hands...I believe I'll throw in some beer as well!! I'll let you all know what the final result is. Will the "rest" be of any advantage at this point?  Its been resting two hours already.

    Thanks for the response. - The fat side up or down seems to be an ongoing debate and the fat side down crowd had some points that seemed to make a lot of sense. Maybe next time I will try it that way. -I am willing to try different temps, but I thought 210* is what was recommended for pulling...

    Hello everyone! After some delays I was bound and determined to get my first smoke in yesterday on my Master Forge gas smoker.  I decided to go with a 7lb butt with hickory & apple chunks.   After a rain delay I put the meat on at 6pm.  It took every bit of 4 hours to get to 140* and it didn't...

    It must be a conspiracy!!!  I have decided on the Master Forge 2 door and went to Lowes to pick it up when the tell me they are out!  They check the three next closest stores and they are out of stock also.  What gives?!!  They suggested checking next week after they get their shipment. It's...

    I've been a longtime griller and have recently been bitten by the smoking bug!  I don't even have an smoker yet (my first question) and to be honest my head is spinning with all the information Ive soaked up in the last month or so. Originally, I was looking at the Masterbuilt electric because...
