    Teryaki tri tip

    I picked up a pre marinated teryaki tri tip. On discount. I am wondering what wood, if any, would go best with the teryaki marinade. My wife wants something milder than hickory. I have on hand Apple, cherry, maple and Oak. Will be cooking on an 18.5 WSM. Any advice?

    Starter Brikett

    My wife and I recently tried our first brisket. It was just a 5 pound point. but it took us 10 hours cooking around 225 - 250. The stall lasted about 5 hours.
