This is my first brisket smoked in my garbage can smoker:
Here is it rubbed down with mustard and rub
About halfway
Fresh outta the smoker
All sliced up
smoke-ringalicious
Thanks for looking!
brisket just reached 150*, I've been basting it with my squirt sauce once an hour. I'm smoking with hickory and at about 225. If any of you remembered, I was having trouble with temperatures due to the garbage can that i smoke in and the weak heat source. Well, Im using a hot plate with a pan...
So, I bought a small, 2.5 pound boneless brisket this afternoon with intentions to smoke it tomorrow in my garbage can smoker. I just prepped it with some mustard and one of my favorite rubs. I wrapped it in plastic wrap and stuffed it in the fridge. I plan to eat around 6:30 tomorrow night...

pineywoods, how much will the welding blanket help? Is it insulated or just fireproof? Also, wont that prevent proper air flow? I use a big cardboard box as a windbreaker sometimes with a few holes cut in the base of it for airflow, but it only gets me about 15 degrees hotter when its under...

So i've already done this roll call before, but my account got lost. My name is Matt and I'm a beginner from Long Island. I recently made an electric powered garbage can smoker that I'm still getting used to and love to practice with till I buy something big.
I've got my smoker at full blast and its about 205 degrees due to the cold weather, besides the fact that it will take longer, is it going to affect quality?
