Brisket SOS
Thank you all! I will do it early in the AM in case things don't go smoothly but since my largest piece is 4.5 lbs, I don't have to stay up all night. -
Brisket SOS
Pan then liquid then wrapped meat or wrap the pan with the meat and liquid in it? -
Brisket SOS
I think you are correct, what I am able to buy is a trimmed flat (one of the reasons I am smoking in a pan). Any sense on whether the times would be similar (1.5 hrs per pound) and whether it is 1.5 hrs for all 8 pounds or since it is two pieces 1.5 hours per pound in the largest piece? -
Brisket SOS
I have been smoking meat for several years and have had great success with shoulder/butts, chickens, turkeys, fatties and even lamb but Brisket has been a disaster! It has been tough, stringy and although flavorful, not a wonderful dining experience. I think I just haven't been patient enough... -
Chips Vs Chunks Smoke Vault 24
I've used both; on a short smoke (like chicken wings) chips work better because they "burn" at a more rapid pace. On long smokes, chunks will allow you to keep the door closed longer.- smqua

My pork doesn't get pullable
Thank you to all! I have to admit that I don't know what the internal temp has been when I have taken it off... Now; if the snow would just melt around my smoker, I can give it a whirl. I'm off to the roll call section. -
My pork doesn't get pullable
I am having a cooks block. I have a vertical propane smoker and have been smoking many things for several years. I have had great luck with everything from chicken wings to turkeys to briskets but seem to fail at pulled pork. I have tried hotter than 225, cooler than 225, cooking it longer...
