    Temperature Probe Question

    I guess I shouldn't follow the Masterbuilt recipie? :-) They did say to spritz. Which I didn't do. Whelp, I guess I can try again. The worst thing is that I'll have more brisket to eat. https://www.masterbuilt.com/blogs/recipes/brisket

    Temperature Probe Question

    That's a great suggestion. I'm starting to keep better notes. I think that is probably the key, getting to know your equipment better. I switch between MES and BigGreen Egg. Seeing what works and just trying to get the best results. I should probably just focus on one platform. but I like...

    Temperature Probe Question

    I took it out at 193, let it rest in a cooler for about an hour. Probe feel was good. it felt very tender. it wasn't tight. I think also part of the problem is that I don't usually mop and the water pan was dry. I think that might have caused it to be too dry.

Now using the signals I put the ambient temp probe near the controllers probe and the temps are wildly different. Somewhere on the order of ~20-30 degrees off or more. So... do I go...

    Supplemental Fan

    I was thinking some think like this, just to draw some of the air out. I can't imagine you want it be like a hurricane. I suppose it's cheap enough to give it a try.

    Butchers

    Anyone know of a a good butcher in the Everett area? I've been going to Costco, but sometimes you just want something better.

    Supplemental Fan

    Anyone try adding a fan to the top vent on a MES Adventure 30 inch. I'm reading here and there that there isn't enough air flow so your briskets can't form a good bark. I was thinking that I can put a small fan to draw the air up and out the vent. This is so it's not as humid inside the smoker...
