    Reviewing Brisket smoke notes & still wondering

    Yes there are many varying methods. But there are time tested tried and true method that never fails. Low and slow. Wrap at the stall, if new to brisket, or concerned about time.

    Reviewing Brisket smoke notes & still wondering

    Smokin the birds

    Been awile since I added anything but that doesn't mean I haven't been smokin and eating good! Moved, so had to add wind dams around the bittom of the MBXL.
