    Butterball Turkey Breast w/ Qview

    I actually ended up using a carving knife for it so I could get some thicker slices. I may use the deli slicer to cut it thin and package it. I bought a cheap chef's choice slicer and it does just fine for me so far.

    Butterball Turkey Breast w/ Qview

    I decided to smoke a boneless butterball. I don't really like these too much as they don't taste like "real" turkey for me. But since I'm just cooking for two and I wanted it boneless so i could use the deli slicer, I decided to make one anyway. I brined it in buttermilk, salt, cayenne pepper...

    First Time Brisket

    I really didn't think a four pound brisket would take over 12 hours to get to the right IT!! I let it rest for 2 hours and it was very tender, a little dry, but tasted delicious!

    This thing has been stuck at 185 for over an hour. Just tooth picked it and there was still some effort getting it in. Any ideas???

    Put mine in at 830 AM, its at 160 already only 2.5 hours later? Very surprised by that. Smoker is holding steady between 210 and 235.

    Best Meat Slicer for Bacon and/or Brisket

    Looks very similar to the 609. I wonder what the difference is?  So far i'm happy and for $100 I can't beat that! Your model is $149 online, which is still great!

    Awesome, thanks for the advice and whether to cook fat side up or down. I read if using a rub to cook fat side down so the rub doesn't come off. Might try that first. Thanks again! I'll post up results! Lou
