    Brisket help

    Smoking an 8.5 lb brisket flat today. It's been on since 7 am. Right now it's sitting at 180. So I'm thinking it will be done by 2:30 ish. Dinner is not until six. If I foil and towel wrap in a cooler will it hold for 3.5+ hours? Or is it better to hold it in the oven at the lowest...

    First smoke on a Weber kettle

    Thanks everyone. I was very pleased with the end product. I think the use of a water pan contributed to the temp getting locked in at 250. Which is a good temp in it's own right.

    First smoke on a Weber kettle

    I was gifted a Weber kettle and tried it for a smoke for the first time today. I got a late start and didn't have time for 3-2-1. So I found a recipe online that called for 2 hours at 300, 1 hour wrapped and a finish of 20 minutes uncovered once sauced. I couldn't get the grill to go above...

    Alternative wood types for smoking

    I'll add this. I used to have a Bradley but it met it's untimely demise due to a grease fire. I had a box and a half of leftover pucks. I saved them and occasionally use them in my Kamado style grill. If you lightly wrap them in foil they should hold up pretty good. At least that's my experience.

    Jealous Devil

    For those that have used JD in the past or would like to try it I found some JD lump at home depot for $24 for a 20 lb bag. I've never seen it in a store before. Hopefully the quality is the same.

    Outside temp and cheese smoking

    I thought about cutting prior to smoking. Never thought of the extra surface area but it makes sense. Next time.

    Outside temp and cheese smoking

    It's been mid 20s all day. Smoker got up to 50. No issues. Cheese was on for 3.5 hours. Didn't seem as dark as my cheese in the past but I'm sure it will be fine. I did mozzarella, pepper jack, Monterey jack and cheddar.

    Outside temp and cheese smoking

    Thanks. I was thinking once the sun is at its peak I should be fine. That and my grill is black which should help with heat adsorption. Maybe do a test run first as suggested.

    Outside temp and cheese smoking

    I'm planning on squeezing in one last cheese smoking session before the weather warms up. This weekend we're only expecting highs in the mid 20's. I've never cold smoked cheese when it's that cold out. Do I run the risk of the cheese freezing? Or should the smoke tube throw off enough heat to...

    First smoke of 2022

    Thanks. I've got chicken pretty much down now. Start with an overnight brine and finish the last 45 minutes at 375. Turns out great.

    First smoke of 2022

    I thought about it. Do they cook faster when spatchcocked?

    Leftover PP chili

    Had some left over pulled pork from back a couple months ago and wanted to do something different. Tried chili for the first time. Turned out pretty good. Will do this one again.

    Boston Butt Bargain

    Yeah, it was a fantastic price. I think they were trying to get them moved since most people were in turkey mode.

    Boston Butt Bargain

    The day before Thanksgiving I was in the local Kroger and they had butts for only $0.33 a pound. I've never seen anything that low before. Even before the recent price increases. I was able to pick up an 8.5 pounder for under $3. Wish I had more room in my freezer. Just thought I'd share my...
