    Brisket French Dip Advice

    Itching to smoke again... tomorrow is supposed to be in the 30's, so it beats the last time I smoked at 7 degrees (-11 with wind chill). I have a small amount left on a gift card to a local store called Meat Lodge. They carry smaller brisket flats which I figured I'd smoke and turn into...

    WOW!!! My stomach is rumbling uncontrollably now. Great visual post! When I do tenderloin someday, I'm going to refer to this post! Happy 48th, and boy am I envious of that view where you live (inner city smoker here).

    -11 Wind Chill

    Thanks Al, but not quite! It became too difficult to regulate the temp, so I pulled these early to finish off in the oven. They should have still gotten ample smoke time. It was worth a try, but I think I'll be picking and choosing days to smoke this winter! Should still end up with great...

    -11 Wind Chill

    Well, the cold and wind are certainly playing into things.... I'm going to be checking coals at 2 hours instead of 3... last time I went out, no smoke! There were still some smoldering coals, so I filled it with a real good amount and will check more often

    -11 Wind Chill

    -11 Wind Chill

    Good morning!  Up early to smoke a couple pork butts today.  I tried something different this time...  I soaked them overnight in apple juice and some spices.  I rubbed them with mustard and some butt rub this morning, and am letting them come up to room temp.  I'm not sure the overnight soak...

    hahahaha, I probably would have tried that myself, if I had a garage. It's amazing hoe pervasive that smell is.... unless it's covered, I can smell my smoker when I'm anywhere within 15-20 feet of it.
