First Brisket Smoke of the New Year with Q-View
In goes the flat half. The Maverick says it is 178F, but from the looks it is still far from done. Put another load of cherry in the chip bin -

What better way to start a New Year than to smoke a 15lb Brisket? Texas Style! Q-view link included!
Very nice indeed. Just started mine for tomorrow night's dinner. I have to cut it in half to fit my smoker. -
First Brisket Smoke of the New Year with Q-View
Just put the point half on While others seem to have problems with the temp readings of their MES, mine seems right on. As soon as I started it it read 31F which is very close to the actual external temperature. The other day the smoker read 15F when I first started which is again what the... -
First Brisket Smoke of the New Year with Q-View
Thanks! We were not Costco shoppers until I got my MES and reading about picking up packers here at SMF. I never wanted to buy 55 gal of mayo but all joking aside we have been converts. Just finished smoking some steelhead that I picked up at Costco and it seemed very fresh prior to smoking... -
First Brisket Smoke of the New Year with Q-View
I am cooking both at the same time, it is just that I will start the point half first and then add the flat half later. They will both finish around the same time (within a couple of hours or so). Plan on making burnt ends with the point portion using the Weber Kettle. All of my grills get a... -

First Brisket Smoke of the New Year with Q-View
After getting a couple of days off, the MES will be going back to work. Will be smoking a 14 1/4 lb brisket that I picked up from Costco (USDA Prime). I always pickup full packers from Costco, have no experiecne with other retailers but I have NEVER had a bad brisket from Costco. They are... -
How Long to Cook a Brisket or The Misconception of the 1 to 1.5 hour rule
In reading the forums it seems like people have problems smoking flats. The flats by me are "over trimmed" when compared to the full packers that I get. The issue is likley an overtrimmed flat. Try to get a full packer that you have to trim yourself. Freeze part of it if you cannot... -
First ever brisket
Looks great. You will be amazed how easy it is to cook brisket with the MES. Since you have a window there is no need to open to peak. Start poking at 190F at various spots on the brisket using a toothpick. Should go in easy, you can try it now to get a sence of the difference. Get ready to... -
New Year's Eve Smoked Stealhead With Q-View
Smoked two halves of stealhead this evening that I picked up from Costco yesterday. It is 15F here in Chicagoland and my MES did not disappoint. Added the steelhead as soon as I turned it on and allowed it to ramp up to 225F with chips (Alder) in the chamber. Wonderful smoke flavor. Both my... -
Turkey on the old Weber
I love cooking turkey on my Weber kettle grill. Did one on Thanksgiving and one on Christmas. I stack coals on either side, and use the hinged grate to refuel and add more chunk wood/chips depending on how I am smoking. Put a water pan under that bird and collect the drippings, there is... -
Christmas Turkey with Q-View
Had leftovers literally for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Was better today than yesterday. White meat was super moist and the dark meat had unbeleiveable flavor! I mentioned it before but definatey hooked on brining. I can not think of something that is so easy that returns huge dividens...
