Smoke Vault Packer w/Q
Hope this isn't too boring, it at least helps me document what I'm doing Flipped the beast about two hours ago per JckDanls suggestion. So the fat cap is now UP, and the other side (that's more vulnerable to drying out) is now immersed in hot liquid fat. Temp is now 180 internal. Did a... -
Smoke Vault Packer w/Q
I said I was going to let it alone, but think I'll flip it like you suggest. I've been trying to figure out how high altitude will affect my smokes (I'm at 6000 feet). Seems the meat will cook more slowly, but dry out faster (water boils at around 200 degrees here). So, flipping it to put the... -

Thanks for the kind comments. I may regret starting at 11 AM and those big garlic granules might make the bark kind of "interesting" Hi, bmudd, I'm in Inyo County on the eastern side of the Sierras. I'm at 6000 feet and the crazy thing is this county has the highest and lowest elevations in... -
Smoke Vault Packer w/Q
New smoker here. Got the Smoke Vault about a month ago and have done some tri-tip, butt, and chicken. Seems to work pretty good. This is my first brisket, a full packer that I bought last month. It's been "aging" in the cryovac in the fridge. It's only "select" grade, the only thing I could...
