Brisket Cook TIme
JBG, Thats correct, 180 is the highest setting on the LOW TEMP alarm. I would like to be able to set it to around 215 but not the way I am doing it. But it sounds like there are other options I will be exploring... Sorry for any confusion! -
any one use a kamado to smoke?
YES! I have had one for about five years, its pretty much all I use for everything from low-n-slow to grilling. I got mine on sale (still way too much $) but it is hands down the best all purpose smoker/grill I have ever owned. Just did some pizzas on mine last night and tonight its London...- johngil

Another New build Question
To go reverse or not is still a dilemma of mine. I am thinking that right now I will go with a standard flow (I think thats what you call it) because it will save me from having to buy another steel plate to put in the grill. BUT I am going to have a charcoal rack that will sit below the cooking...- johngil

Another New build Question
It is cut. I filled it with water, displacing any residual fumes. Let it sit a few days full of water just to be safe. I then cut it with a saws-all with a good bi-metal blade on it. Worked fine, as I am still here! Obviously you know the danger in cutting one of these things so be careful...- johngil
