    Cold Weather Brisket on a pellet Grill

    That's why I like charcoal and wood if my temp is to low or dips to low due to the cold weather I'll just add another layer of coals on the snake. Good luck with your brisket. Cheers!

    Brisket rub complex or simple?

    Mostly kosher salt and coarse ground black pepper, but I do add a little granulated onion and garlic to it too.

    Cold Weather Brisket on a pellet Grill

    Good luck! I'm doing mine tonight too, a 14 lb packer, going on at 8:00 PM. Going to coat with olive oil to give the rub something to stick to, and rub with simple SPOG. Going to run a snake 2 layers of coals halfway around a Webber kettle. It's gonna be cold up here in WA so I may end up having...

    Choice beef ribs

    Choice beef ribs

    I came upon these choice beef ribs while browsing through the meat department. It's been a little while since I've smoked beef ribs and thse just looked to good, plenty of meat on them and lots of marbleing throughout. Just a simple rubdown with olive oil, then seasoned with a little paprika...

    LET'S TALK BRISKET!!

    This is a great read, lots of good info. I haven't smoked a brisket in a little while but I figured I'd share my method and experience. I start with a Select grade packer usually around 10 or 11 lbs, if I could find Prime for the prices some of you found I'd get that. I rub it down with olive...
