    Initial Setup and Using the Masterbuilt Vertical Propane Smoker

    Thanks for the tip! If I had the time I would do a packer… but not this weekend. I am going to inject the brisket with beef broth and make sure to mop it every hour or so to try and keep it moist and tender. Thanks for helping me out!

    Brisket

    Thanks so much for all of the advice I really appreciate it. This will be my second smoke ever and on the first one I did pork tenderloin and we had family over. The cook took 1.5 hours longer than expected and it was hard to justify it to hungry family haha! I will definitely post some pictures...

    Brisket

    I don't know if this will make a difference, but I will be having 3 different cuts of brisket going at the same time. Each cut will be between 2.0 and 2.5 lbs. for a total of between 7 and 8 pounds of meat going at the same time. I noticed in an earlier post you mentioned 2 cuts vs 1 cut cooking...

    First Brisket - Masterbuilt Smoker - Getting Ready For Tomorrow

    Hey All!  I am going to smoke my first brisket this weekend and I just had a quick question I was hoping someone could answer. I called the butcher and ordered a 7 lb. flat which was $8.99/lb. I was at the grocery store the other night and found it for $4.99/lb. (still USDA Choice), so I...

    Brisket

    Thanks so much for the help. So what you are saying is that this went from a 7 hour smoke to a 3.5 hour smoke or so?

    Initial Setup and Using the Masterbuilt Vertical Propane Smoker

    Well my first smoke has been completed and I am very happy with the product! The smoke ring was beautiful and the flavor was awesome. The only trouble I ran into was getting the meat to the temperature I wanted, so I finished off the cook in the oven. It was pretty windy out today, so keeping a...

    Initial Setup and Using the Masterbuilt Vertical Propane Smoker

    Well I have finally put the smoker together and I am planning on pre-seasoning it tonight for my first smoke tomorrow. I found a recipe online for pork tenderloin, so that is what I will begin with...(and maybe some ribs too haha). I bought 5 pound bags of hickory, mesquite, apple, cherry, and...

    Initial Setup and Using the Masterbuilt Vertical Propane Smoker

    Can you please explain this in laymen terms? I don't want to assume anything. Does 3-2-1 (3 hours smoking, 2 in foil, 1 final hour unwrapped) mean 3 total hours in the smoker, the first 2 wrapped in foil, the last unwrapped? Or is it 3 hours in the smoker, 2 in the oven wrapped in foil and 1...
