Well I'm here to say it worked great.
Both point and flat came out great.
11 hour cook time. 245-265 grill temp.
Pulled it at 200° IT.
Middle is the flat.
Bottom of the point.
Has anybody tried tieing up a brisket? This one has a thin flat and basically a point that is just out of a good shape. So I folded the flat and tied it all up into a pretty good shape.
I've done chucks this way with good results.
I like Thermoworks products. They are a great company and great products. Great service.
Thermopen.
Signals unit.
Also I don't think saw Mill scraps would be a good idea. You don't want any treated wood. Maybe someone else can chime in on this with more experience. No pine/fir sappy woods. Hard...
Thank you. Yes I used Big Bad Beef Rub with mustard as a binder. Also double Wrapped in butcher paper. I don't go by the stall temp, I go by looks when wrapping.
Also as a note, meat probes don't always read the correct inside temp throughout the cook. Probably be better to add the probe and...
LSG performs awesome. Temp from left to right is very close. Left side a few degrees hotter but not much to notice.
My only limitation is me still learning temp control. I think I need a timer set for 30-45 minutes to add wood. I forget to check sometimes and by the time the temp starts falling...
The only time I had a bad brisket is when I trimmed to much fat off. I cut off the external hard fat. What ever is inside the meat I leave. Fat cap about 1/4 or a little more I leave. Other side just a little trim here and there. You need fat for juiciness. You can remove extra fat when it's on...
It took 5 months to receive my smoker. About 2 1/2 to 3 weeks from the work order. You will love this smoker. And when it gets there, you will say it was well worth the wait.
I read somewhere that they produce about 100 smokers a month. So they are busy. Believe me it's a great company, great...
Wrapping is a personal preference. Some do some don't. Also the cooker. You wrap to stop it from getting any darker and/or to speed up the stall.
There isn't a standard that you must follow exact steps in most cooks.
Is about a guide to follow and then adapt to your own liking.
Well I tried the 180-190 for the first 1 to 2 hours. It works fine I think but it makes your cook a lot longer. Not much is happening at that low of a temp.
After trying this, I'll be going back to the 225°+ and 3, 2, 1 method.
