    Bear - here in 'Bama we are almost finished with high school ball (45 games already).  Of course that means we played with propane heaters in the stands sometimes in February.

    3-2-1 for brisket?

    My bad - I was really talking about the 2 hour wrap with liquid then final hour unwrapped part. I will be cooking a whole packer so it will be a lot more than 6 hours I am sure.

    3-2-1 for brisket?

    getting ready for my maiden voyage on a Primo XL and want to start with a brisket and a pork butt.  Jeff Phillips talks about using the 3-2-1 method of open, wrapped and open for ribs.  would that work for brisket as well to help with the tenderness and juices putting a little beer and/or apple...

    Seeking input on new smoker selection

    I think I am going with a Primo XL - I like the size and flexibility and have heard only great things about them.  Can't wait to get it and get started.  Thanks for all of the responses and advice.  And BTW - the best advice was probably a for peace of mind.
