    WSM 1st overnight brisket, advice please -- Weber Smokey Mountain

    Also, does it matter how soon before cooking that I trim the brisket?

    WSM 1st overnight brisket, advice please -- Weber Smokey Mountain

    Correct on the offset, great book by the way. So between my two localist meat markets, I can get a whole choice from one for $5.59 per pound (I think I have a coupon around for $5 off) or the other one has just flats for around $4.20 per pound...

    WSM 1st overnight brisket, advice please -- Weber Smokey Mountain

    Good to know, thank you! I'm doing it this upcoming weekend, just trying to prepare as much as possible lol. I just received Aaron Franklin's book on BBQ and now he has much considering a few different ways to go about the smoke. He is all about having the water pan full to keep the smoker...

    WSM 1st overnight brisket, advice please -- Weber Smokey Mountain

    I guess just from watching quite a few videos of wrapping in foil vs butcher paper vs naked, I feel like wrapping fits the end product I'm most shooting for. And I did order some oak chunks so I will have those for the smoke.

    WSM 1st overnight brisket, advice please -- Weber Smokey Mountain

    gmc2003, First I'd like to ask what type of brisket are you smoking full packer or a flat(different beasts and cooked differently)? Still figuring this out, from the stores and markets I've called, it's looking like choice angus flat :/ Pack the coals tight and leave a devot in the center to...

    WSM 1st overnight brisket, advice please -- Weber Smokey Mountain

    I really do too, I'm actually getting married in a few weeks because we love this time of the year so much. Big mountain biker as well and this truly is the best time of the year for it. As for the blocks, maybe I'll try a few balls of crumpled tin foil. Lol, touche!

    Dry brining ribs--liquid leaked out

    Thanks a lot for a bit of relief. And I just got my MK4 Thermapen so this will be my first time cooking to temp like SmokinAl says to!

    Dry brining ribs--liquid leaked out

    I'm not concerned about the mess that was made, more so just the fact that that juice didn't get reabsorbed into them.

    Dry brining ribs--liquid leaked out

    As the title States, decided to dry brine some ribs last night for the first time by rubbing them down and wrapping them in a few layers of Saran Wrap. Went to pull them out today and one of the racks had had leaked liquid out onto the refrigerator. I thought we wrapped them pretty tight but...

    Current WSM Owner, thinking of buying a pellet grill. Opinions please

    Hmm, I've looked at a lot of used prices and searched sales...you see camp chefs with the sear box that go for $1k for less than $600 all the time?

    Current WSM Owner, thinking of buying a pellet grill. Opinions please

    Hi All, Have had my WSM for a good amount of time now and I love it. However, I have come across two very good deals for pellet smokers and am very intrigued. The first is a twice used Camp Chef Woodwind with sear box for $575, and the other is a 2 year old Traeger Select Pro smoker for $600...

    Texas Pepper Rib Candy on ribs?

    Great, thank you. I'm going to order a bottle of the Rib Candy, I was debating between the Apple Cherry Habanero (still thinking 2x pepper) and Pineapple Habanero coincidentally enough. Maybe I will have to toss a bottle of his sauce in as well!

    Texas Pepper Rib Candy on ribs?

    The apple cherry seems quite popular, have you had any other flavors? Do you finish it with a homemade sauce or are Craigs?

    Texas Pepper Rib Candy on ribs?

    Hi all, I have searched quite a bit and there really isn't a whole lot out there on reviews about the Rib Candy. Wondering if anyone here is a fan of it on their ribs, and which flavor specifically? I really want to try the double pepper habanero as the one or two reviews I found of a regular...

    First ever smoke--Baby back ribs on my WSM 18.5"

    I will definitely check out your threads, thanks for all the help! Last question (for now ;)) so stick the thermometer in the thickest part of the rib between the bones...do you stick it in so your thermometer runs parallel with the bones and just try to get as close to the middle of the meat as...
