    Brisket Fat Cap Up or Down?

    I've done it both ways. Not a pellet grill though. It all depends on your grill. My current smoker has a lot of heat coming from the bottom. So if I smoke fat side up, the bottom of usually a little over done and dry. If I smoke fat side down, it comes out very nice both to and bottom. So it...

    Lone Star Grillz: LSG owners?

    I ordered the 20 x36 offset on August 6th I think. They told me it would take about 3 weeks to build after they started on it. About 7 to 10 days to get it delivered to kentucky. It's been 5 months and my pit has shipped. Should be here this coming week.

    Kansas city Rub question

    Ok, this is for all you that know anything about Kansas City bbq. What makes it KC. Is it the sauce? Is it the rub? I've been trying to find something on this. I did find a KC sauce recipe which sounds great. But can't find much on rubs. I've been using Memphis Dust which is good but I think...

    Favorite meat to smoke?

    Brisket is my fav. The only one that I didn't care much for was the one I over trimmed. Have to leave some of that fat on.

    Lonestar offset

    Well it's being built an we speak. Question: What is the limits on temp in the offset stick burnout? Can it be taken to 450° without damage?

    Rec for new Stick Burner

    Before you make a decision, check out Lone Star Grilz. Pricy but man what a smoker. I should receive mine just before Christmas.

    Chucky

    Well I went for a brisket but they didn't have any except for flats. So I bought the 4 Chuck's. They came out perfect for me anyway. I like my meat sliced. I cut my own wood chunks from my splits I have for when my LSG finally arrives in Dec. Chucks are pretty close to briskets except a while...

    Chucky

    I smoked a Chuck roast Saturday. Actually 4. LOL Dry brined over night with Coshire salt and Big Bad Beef Rub. 225° for 5 1/5 hours total cook time. Wrapped in foil at about 156° IT. Pulled it out at 180° IT because I want to slice it. It remained so moist for the whole cook so I didn't have to...

    Wood Rack (Offset Smoker)

    I would be concerned with longevity. After a year or two.

    What's the point of an offset smoker?

    Yes that would be amazing.

    Grommet question

    Warranty is 10 years I think. A small hole of maybe 1/2 inch would probably be big enough for your probes. Wad up a little tin foil and stuff around the whole to seal it and plug it when not used. Your gonna find drilling a hole through the Weber kettle is a real bitch.

    Grommet question

    I wouldn't cut the rim. Weakens it. Voids warranty I bet.

    Grommet question

    I like using foil. I wouldn't cut your lid. Drilling a hole just above your cook grate is a little tough. But putting them through the lid is a pain.

    Paint peeling on inside of smoker

    You can use mineral oil on the outside to help prevent rust. Just wipe out spray. It doesn't get sticky like Pam. Pam in inside and mineral oil the outside.
