    Brisket Problem

    would it make a difference if I carved them while people where in line or if I sliced them beforehand and put the meat in a warming tray.  My original plan was I would wear my chef coat and slice the briskets while people were in line. It looks kind of cool and I hoped the meat would stay a...

    Brisket Problem

    I am cooking brisket for a small party (40 people 6pm Friday). I smoked the 3 - 10 pound briskets last night for 6 hours at 225, then I foiled them up and stuck them in the oven at 225 for 4 more hours (10 hours total). The plan was to cook them 3/4 of the way, fridge them and then warm the back...

    Large Trailer Smoker Question

    I joined a men's club at our church and they have a large trailer smoker but no bbq guys to run it. It is really big. The firebox is about 3' x 2' x 2'. The metal is really thick also. I have been successful putting together backyard bbq with my NBBD, Vertical Smoker, and Mini WSM. What will I...

    Mini WSM Brisket Point and Spare Ribs

    it went great. meat was moist, awesome glaze on the ribs. The mini wsm is a mainstay. I was disappointed in the lack of bark on the brisket. I wrapped it at the 3 hour mark and finished the rest in foil. Next time I will not wrap and use a bigger brisket.

    Mini WSM Brisket Point and Spare Ribs

    the ribs are almost done and the brisket is almost done too. I am getting the hang of this mini. It loves lump as long as there is a little briquettes to even the temps out.

    Mini WSM Brisket Point and Spare Ribs

    Well I am putting my time in on my new mini wsm -learning the pit. I am hooked on lump charcoal. It has such a great smell and flavor. Today I used 50% lump , 50% natural briquettes. I lit about half of the fuel in a chimney starter and poured the lit coals in the middle of the pile. I took out...

    Mini WSM Finally Done!!!!

    I took about 5 pieces of briquettes and 2 pieces of lump, threw them in the starter, once they caught fire I waited about 15 minutes and then dumped them into a small pile of lump and briquettes.

    Mini WSM Finally Done!!!!

    the chicken came out great. I could not get the temp over 225. I might need more fuel next time. I also only had a very small amount of lit fuel. I will add more lit fuel next time. How long do you let the fuel in the chimney starter lite before you add it to the basket?

    Mini WSM Finally Done!!!!

    I took the lid off for a few seconds to check on the chicken, the temp went up about 10 degrees. I think my mini wsm could use more vents at the top and bottom. What are your thoughts?
