First smoke on new charcoal summit smoker....brisket time

doohop65 · May 6, 2017

I found a deal on a brand new charcoal summit and couldn't resist so I opened up the piggy bank and brought her home. Living in Wisconsin I have been wanting a ceramic for the cold winters but I love my Webers and think this thing will be great.

Put an 11# choice brisket from sams club in her at 730 this morning. Went with the classic garlic powder,onion powder, kosher salt and coarse black pepper. Using kingsford blue bag and hickory chunks for the smoke.

Stay tuned, more pics to follow.

What time is dinner?

Looking good.

Did you make the casters for you summit.

That looks great. I keep thinking that I need to get back into using my Weber. I think it gives it better flavor than the MES.

This new summit charcoal came with the big tires in back and caster in the front. It is super nice for moving it around.

With it being double walled it has been holding temps very well with me playing with it to get the temp I want. Over time I will learn the thing and it will get quicker but so far controlling the temps has been a breeze

Dinner will be at 5-6 if this brisket cooperates [emoji]128540[/emoji]

I also love the smoke I get in my webers. I am excited to see how this turns out. Tomorrow I am doing a turkey. Might as well break it in right.

I'm watching... great start!

Well for the last 2.5 hours the temperature hasn't moved. So far this thing is a dream. Actually easier to control thus far than my wsm. A little breezy here in Wisconsin so I am very pleased.

The money shots. Turned out pretty well but could have used another hour on the smoker. The troops were getting restless and it was time to pull at 190 regardless of IT.
