Hi all, started this am. briskets (3) went on at 5 am., pork ribs on at 8 am., beef ribs on at 8:45. qview at 10:30
got et-73 and some cheep-o's from wally world. temps holding at 210.
don't seem to want to go up much more. Brisket is at 150 so something is a little off temp wise.
will try to IMG]add more later when I put the fattys on.

I did brisket yesterday and after five hours I was at internal of 154 Deg. so I don't think you are to far off. Might want to try and bring the temp up to more like 225ish. Brisket takes quite awhile to reach internal of 180 or so. Can't rush it...just let it go and you will be fine.

Just my two cents worth.

TJ's photobucket is simple. Below the pictures are some lines with different codes. You want the IMG code (should be on the bottom). When you click on that line it will say "copied".

If you open two browsers, one here with your new post and one there with the photobucket opened to your pictures you can copy the picture the come back here and paste it in your post. You don't need to do anything else other than leave a few lines between pictures.

Good luck

Looks like you got the pix in TJ. In the future you will want to resize those pictures to about 800 x 600 or less so we don't have to scroll sideways to see the pics or read the posts. And add a space between each picture (paste IMG code then hit enter once or twice then paste the next IMG code).

Nice looking Q-View. It just takes a few times and you'll be a pro at posting your pics.

Thanks for sharing!

Well if it doesn't show up but you can see it, or smell it, you're doing great!!! I must say that is one unusual lawn orniment(?) you have. Must have been some REALLY STRONG winds.

coyote;
its totally homemade. had a horizontal brinkman but wasn't happy with results. a friend suggested some modifacations, didthat and really helped and got the bug baddddddd. another friend was working at a scrap yard so I found 1/4" sheets of steel 4 x ??. bought enough to build what u see. the chain was used to turn cooker using a engine puller for welding. it really works good. wish I'd known to make reverse flow.
will sell for what I got init + enough to make new and bigger. sry bout the pic mess. look right at the trailer pic to see it loaded. good cook
thanks all TJ

good looking food. I see it's been a bit windy lately by the looks of your 5th wheel camper.

I will be trying a brisket soon, and from what I have read on here that MOST meat is set about 225 on the MES rigs and the meat will have a stall time and NOT to touch the temp... RIDE IT OUT.
