    To wrap or not

    I prefer the flavor of unwrapped ribs myself...i would do some wrapped some not... some sauced some not....everybody likes ribs different so with that many racks id do a little each way....and it would be less work then trying to wrap 25 racks and sauce 25

    First time on charcoal

    I also made the switch from propane to charcoal....Masterbuilt to a 22 wsm...i have found charcoal to be easier surprisingly....dont start with too much lit charcoal research the minion method. allow yourself plenty of time to slowly bring up to temp....it takes a long time to bring charcoal...

    Brisket and burnt ends?

    So im going to be doing another brisket here soon and wanted to try burnt ends for the first time and have a few questions. Is it better to seperate point from flat before or after smoking? After you cube and rub the burnt ends what is the texture your looking for when they are done?

    Second Brisket Ever

    I agree with bdskelly if your wanting to eat around 6 you gotta crank that heat up. I just did a 12.6 over(before trim) temp ranged from 225-259 and it took 13 hrs. I also wrapped in butcher paper. With at least a 1 hour rest. you'd be looking at 8 or 9. I'd crank heat to 275.

    First Brisket WSM

    Thanks guys....definitely have room for improvement...Was pleased being my first one What does everyone do with the point end of the packer? I spun mine 90* from the way I sliced the flat. It was very delicious(best part IMO) but I noticed on the back end there was a hunk that the grain a...

    First Brisket WSM

    Wasn't too much to trim on the bottom as it was already around 1/4 to 3/8 thick. I really just cut out any thick hard fat I could get to.

    First Brisket WSM

    Thanks guys no there wasn't much sleeo...between worrying about the brisket and spritzing I only got naps in between spritzes. Thankfully the wsm ran like a champ and I didn't have to do anything to it for almost the whole 13 hrs except kick the legs every now and then to knock ash.

    First Brisket WSM

    Using Aluminum Pan for drippings

    I would replace it.....the cost of a aluminum pan is much cheaper then ruining some meat....I wouldn't take the chance unless it was cleaned thoroughly

    My daughter’s charcoal smoker.... Toying Around

    I know what you mean....when I first started smoking I started on a masterbuilt propane.... I thought it would be easier to control temps then charcoal as I was new....after 2 years it broke down and I got a 22 wsm....man I love it and the flavor is so much better.. Wish I would of started with one

    Smoking Overnight?

    what temp are you cooking at? 6 hours for brisket would have to be hot and fast not low and slow in my experience....never done them at same tim, but I would put them on at same time. You shouldn't need to put chunks on every hour with WSM. Load up 3-6 (depending on how much smoke you like)...
