Cooked some leg quarters. Now that we are west of Dallas I was able to get some Mesquite wood. Used a combination of Mesquite and Pecan.
Smoke flavor was stronger than I expected and after searching through the posts I confirmed it’s the Mesquite.
Temp 250-275 for about 2 hours.
So 6 years later. It’s done.
we’ve moved twice and had another child, and took another job.
This smoker design works better than I imaged.
Thank you all for the help.
That's the plan for now. I'll heat and bend what I can for best fit. I will have to seal up the open spaces in between the welds on the door straps. Some are two large to leave open. Slow and steady....just like a brisket.
Good Afternoon SMF!
Got a little more done today.
I did learn the small propane torch from any hardware store doesn't t work on 1/4 thk metal. And I didn't have a big enough hammer. I did manage to leave dents in the door but it didn't bend one bit.
So I welded the strap down and hit it...
Good Morning Josh. Glad to have you. There's lots to read up on here. I've used the search function many times to help me out. Start there and thus it begins!!!

Welcome from Texas! I've been out of the USA a few times and I do understand the problem with beef. I had a really good filay in Costa Rica a while back. I had to go ask the cook how they did it.....just wasn't possible to get something that tough to that tender.
Their answer, it was impoted...
Gary I have been wanting to plant spinach, but just haven't. When would be a good time for this? I live in Rowlett......close enough for a shipment of that brisket!!!
