Hello!!

I am from Oklahoma and an avid "smoker" of briskets. I use 1, 2, or 3 smokers I have in my backyard depending onthe size of crew I need to feed. I recently went through 120lbs of brisket at my daughter's cheerleading gym---cheerleaders eat alot of brisket! I also have an event next weekend where I feed about 200 cheer coaches and they request it when they are in OKC. I am starting a new internet BBQ business so I will have many questions. I use only pecan wood and smoke my briskets for 24-hours....I have been told for years to start a brisket business and finally am venturing out. Any advice would definately be appreciated!!!
Thanks for a forum like this as I did not know such a site existed....have a great day! Ken
 
Welcome to SMF, Dr. Ken! I look forward to hearing more about briskets from you and seeing pictures of how you do it. Glad to have you with us.
 
Welcome Dr. Ken, glad you found us! Looking forward to your posts!

Welcome to SMF Dr. Ken! Keep reading, all the advice it out there...unless you have a specific question? I did notice the 24 hour thing. There may be no need to do so. You do have a good quality digital meat thermometer, right? When that brisket hits the 180's- it's done for slicing. Sounds like you might be pulling it, or at least having a hard time with the slicing? Or you run your smoker quite low in temp?
 
welcome to the SMF. i also noticed the 24-hour smoke. you must be smoking those big packers. i always try to get 10-lbs and under packers. most of us here go by temp, not time, for smoking our meat. except ribs that is.
