    First time brisket, long time smoker (Now with Q-View!)

    Well overall the brisket was a success.  Great flavor and was nice and tender although to me it was slightly dry.  However, to the others eating they didn't feel that way at all.  Could just be me making excuses to do another one.  I've added q-view as well Seasoned and ready for smoker...

    Ribs getting TOO tender

    When smoking ribs I use the 3-2-1 method (3 hours of smoke at 225 degrees, 2 hours wrapped in foil with a little liquid, 1 hour uncovered at higher temp with your BBQ sauce on) and mine always come out good as long as I don't put too much seasoning on them.  The only times where I have had...

    UDS Beautified?

    I just posted a photo in the group of my UDS.  Unless you want some special design with your paint I would recommend painting it yourself.  When purchasing your paint I would recommend making sure you get the semi-gloss and not the flat or matte paint.  I used Rustoleum brand and the only thing...

    First time brisket, long time smoker (Now with Q-View!)

    @SmokinAl  Thanks again for the advice.  I always let the meat rest in a cooler when I'm done smoking.  I was more or less try to sleep in a little bit but I agree better to be done earlier than not done on time.  I'll give updates and pictures on Sunday.

    First smoke- brisket

    Wrapping in foil and a towel then putting in a cooler is definitely recommended.  Your brisket should stay hot for 5 hours or so and I mean hot not just luke warm.  Keep it in the cooler and avoid opening it.  This will help it rest and get back some juices.  When you're getting ready to eat and...

    First time brisket, long time smoker (Now with Q-View!)

    Thanks for the advice Al, now that you mention that it makes a lot of sense.  I'll be sure to make note of this for Sunday.  Do you think my timeline will work for a 6pm dinner?

    My new UDS is to hot

    @Mobuckbuster  also I only keep all 3 of my bottoms vent open until it starts getting close to the proper temp.  Then I close all but the ball valve and keep an eye on it.  Usually I will need to close the ball valve about half way in order to make it maintain temperature.  Unfortunately every...

    My new UDS is to hot

    I recommend using lump charcoal instead of your standard briquettes (Kingsford, etc.).  In my experience that charcoal burns at a much higher temp than lump charcoal.  It depends on how long I'm trying to use my smoker, I have used about 12#s of lump charcoal and had it burn for 12+ hours.  I...

    First time brisket, long time smoker (Now with Q-View!)

    Ok, maybe not a long time smoker but I've got some experience under my belt.  However, I'm doing my first brisket Sunday and was hoping for some critique and advice. I've laid out my plan below, was wondering what everyone thought.  I'll say that I'm planning on slicing the brisket instead of...

    First pork butt.

    Looking good @darthbane1! I included a link to a post I made with the process I use for smoking pork butts.  Pulled pork is one of my absolute favorite things to eat especially since there are so many leftovers. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/156428/pork-butt-temp-stall/20#post_1528407

    Pork butt temp stall?

    Smoking pork butts has become one of my absolute favorite things to smoke.  The way it looks and the smell of it are unbelievable plus the leftover pulled pork can be used in many different recipes so you're not always eating pulled pork sandwiches.  I have come up with a pretty solid...
