    Brisket size/shape help... please?

    I usually cut a sort of V shape into it so i still get 1/8"-1/4" of fat covering - it just levels it out without losing meat or fat completely

    Brisket size/shape help... please?

    I would say that for high heat you want as much fat coverage as possibly to keep the meat from drying out. Maybe cut a groove into that really thick piece of fat on the side because that is a lot to get through. From the pictures there you can probably safely trim off that thin side on the left...

    "Proper" Ribs

    Scratchings look great!  I am a firm believer of rib meat staying on the bone when you pick it up as well - in foil they get tender much quicker as you get steam action as well, and you have to watch out for that.  3 hours doesnt seem too long, so perhaps turning the heat down a bit will help...

    "Proper" Ribs

    Thanks Wabby Definitely bought in the UK....specifically from http://www.higgsbutchers.co.uk/.  The photos above are about 1/2 of the original rack - it would easily feed 6-8 people.  I think I have the exact weight and price at home so will look tonight and reply again.

    First time cold smoking : Bacon of America

    Thanks for the advice, guys.  I guess it was good fortune?   that my slicer died after only 5-6 slices...I will give it a couple of days and let you know.

    First time cold smoking : Bacon of America

    Alright, things have progressed significantly...I took the bacon out and washed it off thoroughly.  A lot of pepper stuck on but I am told that is ok.   After sitting in the fridge for a day it went into the smoker for 12 hours.  I initially had the smoke generator in the firebox, but not...
