    Big Green Egg & Brisket

    Primo is relatively new on the ceramic cooker scene. Their factory is in Atlanta. They have a 20 year warranty on their grill. They use an oval shape rather than a circle which allows for a larger cooking space. The Prima Oval XL is larger than the L BGE but I think its a little smaller...

    Big Green Egg & Brisket

    Thanks. I haven't checked out the Primo. I did check out the Kamodo ( http://www.kamodo.com/ ) and it seemed a lot pricier than the Egg. The Primo seems pretty comparable pricewise. There's a local dealer nearby. I'll have to check it out. Thanks.

    Big Green Egg & Brisket

    Thanks Reflect. I haven't purchased my BGE yet. I'm trying to figure out which size to get, the Large or the XL. I'm thinking I can get by with the Large. Now I just got to convince the wife we need it...

    Big Green Egg & Brisket

    Thanks a bunch! The diameter of the Large BGE is 18 1/2 inches so it'd be a tight fit but doable. That rain blew through here last night.

    Big Green Egg & Brisket

    Any BGE owners know if the Large BGE is big enough to hold a packer's cut brisket? I'm leaning strongly toward buying a BGE but my favorite thing to smoke is brisket. I know the diameter of the grill is 18 1/2" but I've never bothered to measure a brisket before.

    Brinkmann Smoke 'n Pit

    I have the latest SNP from Walmart. I'm not a welder either. I haven't tried it but its been recommended to me to use an oven liner as a baffle or roll up some aluminum foil and use it as a makeshift baffle. I haven't tried either method yet. What I have done to mine is I flipped the...

    Possible New Smoker??

    I have the Wally Brinkman SNP. It definitely will require some mods. If you go that route, I'd suggest: Charcoal Basket Mod and make sure its raised up a bit. Extend the Chimney to the Grate Add Temperature Gauges (Comes with a bobo Brinkman Ideal/Warm/Hot gauge) Put in a Baffle I've done...

    Pork Butt vs. Brisket?

    Smoke a brisket AND a pork butt. You can't go wrong bringing them both. Briskets usually go for about 1-1.5 hours/pound. Depending on whether you want to slice or pull the brisket, cook it to 185 or 200 internally. I was reading DeeJayDebi's Burnt Ends recipe on her site and I've been...

    My first Q-View Pulled Pork, Brisket, Fatty, and a Chicken Roll

    Oh and I had a ton leftover. My 10 month old loved the brisket too. He looked at it suspiciously but when it hit his tongue, he got a big smile on his face and he wanted more.

    My first Q-View Pulled Pork, Brisket, Fatty, and a Chicken Roll

    Thanks ya'll! I found the Chicken Roll recipe here and thought I'd give it a try: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...t=chicken+roll What I did was take 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts and filet'ed them. I then opened htem up and wrapped them in saran wrap. Then I took a rolling pin...

    evil shortcut

    Dumb question, but why not hit it with smoke first, then transfer to the oven to finish? I thought you got most of the smoke flavor in the beginning of the smoke?

    My first Q-View Pulled Pork, Brisket, Fatty, and a Chicken Roll

    On Sunday, I fired up the smoker around 7 am to smoke a 7.75lb beef brisket and a 4.3lb pork butt. This was my 2nd smoke but my first Q-View. I also did a chicken roll and a Fatty. I used Royal Oak lump hardwood charcoal and hickory wood chunks. My smoker runs a little hot near the firebox but...
