    Oh wow! I knew not having a “baffle” had something to do with it. Thanks so much for the pictures and letting me in on the secret. Now I know exactly what to show my welding friend at work! Would you say that putting that plate back in horizontally helped a lot? Or would you recommend just...

    Hey Al! Thanks a lot! I’m definitely talkin about extending the stack. My stack is already at grate level but I’m talking about adding additional height to the outside of the stack for better draw.

    Fat Side Up Or Down in OC Wrangler

    Well, I’m gonna try it! I’m also gonna move my the makeshift baffle I have a little further away from the deflector to let the heat travel upward a little bit. Do you guys recommend a water pan BELOW the brisket or just on the grate somewhere? Or, would you catch the drippings and pour them in...

    Fat Side Up Or Down in OC Wrangler

    Are cooking on an offset? And I assume you say small fire to be able to keep temps down? Also, do you you keep your firebox door open like lots of folks recommend?

    Fat Side Up Or Down in OC Wrangler

    Alrighty, I’m posting another thread for all the folks who own annOld Country Wrangler. How are you cooking your briskets, what are your mods, what is helping you maintain 250-275, and lastly where do you have you tuning plates.

    Old Country Wrangler- Owners Thread

    My briskets are getting hard on the bottom and my temps fluctuate DRASTICALLY. I haven’t tried keeping the fb door open so I will definitely do that next time. I also took the fb grate and flipped it upside down to make a tuning plate. It’s right up against the damper that’s already in the cook...

    Brisket on OC Wrangler

    Thanks! Before i go fat cap down I think I should test for hot spots (most likely closest to the stack) and then maybe try the pan underneath solution. The fat cap renders really well which is why I don’t want to try it fat cap down just yet. my all are super helpful!

    Brisket on OC Wrangler

    I use a probe to monitor the grate level temp and I try to cook around 275. Since it’s a smaller cooker maybe I should drop down to 250 or 260? Next time I’ll try and cook at around there and move the brisket to the center and turn it perpendicular to the length of the cooker. If that doesn’t...

    Second brisket today - Questions from a nervous cooker!

    I’m cooking on an OC Wrangler and the bottom of mine tends to get too crispy. Any of y’all know how to avoid that? Should I be cooking fat side down?
