    Smoke ring

    Thanks for the input. My only other attempt at smoking prior to getting the Masterbuilt 30" electric was adding chips to my Akorn. You've all been very helpful.

    Smoke ring

    I'm new to smoking, but I've successfully smoked wings, ribs, boston butt, London broil, brisket and pork tenderloin. My question is this: While I have gotten awesome flavor from my smoker, I don't see a "smoke ring".  1) does it matter? and if it does 2) how do I achieve it? I'm using a...

    first try at a brisket

    first try at a brisket

    So, I have no idea what it's gonna turn out like. I rubbed the brisket with Montreal Steak Seasoning because it's what I had on hand and I like the fact that it's heavy on the cracked pepper. I wrapped it in wax paper and placed it in the fridge for a couple of hours to cool it off. I then...
