    Smoking a brisket flat at high heat

    Hey guys..Haven't been around for a while, and I'm about to do a brisket for my father-in-laws b-day. Last time I did one was 4 or 5 years ago, so to say I'm out of practice is an understatement..:emoji_laughing: I've got a Weber bulet and want to try the high heat method, but I'm curious if...

    Question about use of wood for smoking

    Gentlemen, thanks again for the information.  Oldschool, I'll give that a try and start with a smaller fire. I also probably need to do a better job making sure the wood is completely dry.  My stack was kicking out the TBS after about 45 minutes into the initial burn.  Anyway, I'll mess around...

    Question about use of wood for smoking

    Good suggestion...Hadn't thought about damping it down earlier, and you're also right, I probably could have used about half the amount of wood.

    Question about use of wood for smoking

    The new set up works great, actually a little too great..  this weekend I filled the basket with some large pieces of oak that I used as my primary fuel.  Lit a chimneys worth of lump charcoal and dumped it on top to get everything going..After about 1/2 hour the fire was going really well.  My...

    Help, just hooked up my ET-73 it reads 230 inside and my door therm says 150 or so....

    My Maverick and door probe are almost on exactly the same level.  Just got my Tru-tel therm in last week.  Planning of giving it a test run with my new charcoal basket this weekend.

    Question about use of wood for smoking

    Ok, I think I've got it right now.  Had a friend build me a box for inside my fire box out of 5/16th steel with legs, punched holes in it with a plasma cutter and made the bottom out of expanded metal. this gets it up higher and should allow me to build a better fire.  take a look and let me...

    Question about use of wood for smoking

    Thanks Danny..Actually I'm having a buddy of mine build me a custom charcoal basket out of stainless expanded metal and it will have legs as well..Plan is to weld it together so it fits almost the exact dimensions of the firebox.  I'll post pics up once it is done.  Here is a pic on the air inlet.

    Help, just hooked up my ET-73 it reads 230 inside and my door therm says 150 or so....

    I hear what you're saying Venture, but I still like to have a therm on the door.  I bought a Tru-tel and will be junking the Made in China one that came with my smoker..

    Help, just hooked up my ET-73 it reads 230 inside and my door therm says 150 or so....

    Was just about to post a similar thread until I came across this one.  I have the very same dual probe Maverick and a standard thermometer in the door of my smoker..I have the Maverick probe in it's clip sitting on the middle rack of my smoker, about the same height as the one in the door.  The...

    Question about use of wood for smoking

    I'm going to give this set up a try for my next smoke.the pavers give me enough clearance to get my shovel in there so I can clear out the ash if I have to.  Also did a bead of the high temp RTV around the door to help keep the heat in..we'll see how it works.
