    Back To The Basics Brisket

    At about 18 hrs the point was reading 196 and the flat was reading 192. I've never actually let a brisket rest before. It's always been smoker to stomach, but since it was 4:30 AM I wrapped it in foil and towels and put it in a cooler. I figured I'd get up around 8 or so and slice it up but...

    Is Char-Griller Thermo Good??

    You can use one you know is correct and test different spots and note where the built in one is at different temps. As long as they're consistent you'll be good. I've got a char broil charcoal offset that I know where 220 to 250 are by comparing.

    Back To The Basics Brisket

    Pulled it off the Char Broil a little over 5 hours when the coals couldn't keep 220 any more. Put it in the MES at 220 and upped it to 230 after a couple hrs in there. Sitting at 156 a little over 7 hrs in.

    Back To The Basics Brisket

    Here it is after 4 hrs. All that moisture is from the fat dripping.

    Back To The Basics Brisket

    Got an almost 12lb brisket on the Char Broil today. I've separated the last few I've done and trimmed them quite a bit. I've also been injecting and didn't on this one. I'm leaving this one whole and tried to leave a little bit of the fat cap. Been on since 10 at between 220 and 240. I've...

    Went to the store for a steak and ended up with my first butt..

    After 7 hours in the cooler it was still at 150. Pulled easily and tastes great.

    Went to the store for a steak and ended up with my first butt..

    Pulled it at 206 a little under 10 hrs. Wrapped in towels and in the cooler it's up to 208. I'm going to leave the probe in it and see what it does resting.

    Went to the store for a steak and ended up with my first butt..

    The regular price on these was $1.79/lb. The ribeye was great. A couple hours marinating in Dale's.

    My first attempt at brisket!

    I've separated the last few briskets I've done. If you're trimming the fat you'll find the spot where the fat separates the point and flat and you can cut right through there while pulling one from the other. The next one I do I'll do whole since I haven't done it that way in a while. I think...

    Went to the store for a steak and ended up with my first butt..

    Figured I'd take a break from smoking this weekend and have a good ribeye but the store I went to had butts on sale for $.99/lb so here I am. This will be the first butt I've ever smoked. Going to do it on the MES at 220, foil at around 165, and take it to about 200. It's about 7.4 lbs. I'm...

    Question to mes owners.

    Home Depot had the 30" with window down to $174 I think but I don't see it on their website now, some stores might still have it. Sams is the best I think we've seen on the 40" at $299.

    Anyone have MES jerky suggestions? My plan, and a few questions.

    I did my first batch with 1/4" cuts and it was thicker than I like but turned out good. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...ad.php?t=88363 I've done a few more batches since and have been really happy with the Hi Mtn spices. I also bought a slicer to cut 1/8". I've kept the temps around...
