    What are the latest brisket prices?

    Yeah,beef prices have been coming down. My Wal Mart also has "select" packers for $2.46/lb. I picked up 2  "choice" packers at GSF Friday for $2.69/lb. I was in Costco a few weeks ago and they had "Prime" briskets for $ 3.79/lb or $3.16 case price. I need to go back and see if their price has...

    Meat Grinder

    I too have the Kitchener #12. It works OK .......But....... I have to push/force every piece of meat through it to get it to grind. My next one will be a LEM with a "Big Bite" auger. Just drop meat in and it grinds.

    Having trouble getting wood to start smoking.

    Lower your chip pan closer to the flame somehow. My propane smoker also won't produce smoke on low. Most times I have to set the chip pan very close to the flame to keep smoke going. It's trial and error until you figure out what works best.

    Cold Smoking

    I haven't used a fry pan, but I use a small hot plate(550 watts) in my big block propane unit to cold smoke. Had to disconnect the thermostat switch so it would run contentiously.

    Offset fire management...?

    Thanks for the help Joe and Roger..I think I'm getting a little closer. Did another practice run on it today and had much better luck. I started out with a full basket of lump and some brks. and started them with a full chimney of burning lump. I was able to hold the temps at 230-260 +/- for...

    To wrap or not to wrap

    To wrap or not to wrap? This may sound silly, but it just depends what you are trying to accomplish.  You can get a great brisket either way and no one way is the absolute best way. I would suggest you do a search on here "wrapping brisket" and do some reading and then decide for your self. It's...

    Need Ideas Best Dish

    I pretty much follow Todd’s recipe in the videos, but I leave out the mushrooms (yuk) but do use a medium can of condensed cream of mushroom soup. My measurement are never exact and it always comes out great.  I normally do what I call a 2,3 or 4 lb jambalaya meaning I’ll use 2,3 or...

    Need Ideas Best Dish

    Fletcher. Here's a You Tube vid  to give you the basics,(it's 2 parts) It's pretty good and I pretty much use his recipe with a few of my own modifications. Jambalaya is best if made in a cast iron pot. I have a 4 gal cast iron jambalaya pot I got on Amazon a few years back but a cast dutch...
