    WSM VS BGE GO!

    The WSM is definitely solid and affordable. I cook in contests from time to time but don't have a trailer pit (or the space to back up a trailer into my back yard), so I'm usually with friends that have trailer pits, but the problem with that is so many people on Texas cook with mesquite, which...

    WSM VS BGE GO!

    If you like the concept of the Chargriller Duo but want a higher quality build, you should take a look at the pit I got a few months ago from Pits by JJ after searching for months. It's very similar to the Duo as far as functionality, but it's made out of.25" metal, so it's mush heavier duty &...

    Advice on Brisket

    Here's my opinion: There are typically two different types of fat on a brisket (hard & soft), & the amount of each type can vary from brisket to brisket. I always trim off all of the hard fat since it doesn't tend to render down. My fat cap typically ends up being about a quarter inch thick at...

    Smoking a turkey?

    I smoked my first turkey Thanksgiving day & did it breast up in a roasting pan to save the drippings for gravy & speed up cleanup. The gravy definitely had a smoke flavor to it, but it was a big hit. I used the same brine, & the gravy retained some of that flavor. It ended up a delicious combo.

    Little brisket on the Smokin-It#3

    Well done! If you want it to be juicier, you may want to try wrappingit for the last few hours. That will help it hold in the juices & tenderize the brisket.

    Saturday Brisket

    I had a brisket finish earlier than planned a few weeks ago, so I left it wrapped and packed in the cooler for 4 hours or so. It was perfect when I pulled it out too slice it. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

    Today's 22 pound smoked turkey

    I wish. Unfortunately, we will be out of town at my in-laws :devil::wife: this Christmas, & the mother-in-law controls things on that front. Plus, I can't see myself doing a turkey for 8 adults and 3 kids on a small Weber kettle.

    Today's 22 pound smoked turkey

    After reading up over the past few weeks leading up to my first turkey, I went with the Slaughterhouse brine but added Herbs du provence & a little chili powder. Brined for 24 hours then dried it off and let it hangout covered in the fridge overnight. Due to the weight, I was planning on a 7...
