    Hot and Fast Brisket (5 Hours Total!)

    How long prior to the cook does the brisket need to be injected? I think I going to try this on Sunday before the football game with a 16lb packer that has been wet aging for 30 days. Hope to have it on the smoker by 11:30 and give it a one hour rest before slicing.

    Beef Ribs

    I agree with with Al on the braising part. I have tried beef short ribs without braising and they tend to turn out dry. I cook mine at 275. Here's a cook it did this summer. https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/beef-ribs-for-dinner.268606/#post-1755581

    How long can prime rib be stored before cooking

    I'm planning on picking up a 10 lb prime rib tonight (on sale for $7.99) to cook and serve on Christmas. If I vacuum seal it when I get home, can it be stored in the refrigerator or is my best bet to put it in the freezer?

    Question on pressed Jerky and results

    We got home around 9:45 Temp varies from around 128-142 Moved some of the pieces around. It's now 10:30 so I'm about to check temps again and probably bump up to 170. It has some kick to it. May have put too much Cayanne in

    Question on pressed Jerky and results

    I knew 80/20 wasnt ideal, but figured since it was used in beef sticks it should work. I planned on vacuum sealing and freezing/refrigerating. If I roll it out tonight, do I put any non stick spray on teh wax paper? Guessing 10lbs will require multiple layers.

    Best Time To Inject a Turkey

    Thanks for the replies. Last year I injected just before cooking. This year I was planning on throwing it on the smoker around 6:00 AM. I was thinking if I injected the night before I could save some time in the morning.

    Meat sticks.

    Curious as to why you peeled the casings. I made my first sticks last week using callogen casings and left them on. I thought they were fine with the casings on. Is this a preference thing?
