    20lbs of shoulder, filet mignon, and who knows what else!

    My buddy wanted to do some pulled pork for Monday night football, sure, since I'm going to have it fired up wife said to do some steaks as well, sure! He shows up today with the shoulders, notice the plural! He went to Sam's and brings me two 10lb shoulders! Not quite what I was signing up for...

    just can't decide, I'm too picky and want it all

    The range on the igrill is closer to 20-30ft, just so you know. I have one and love it for what it is, but if you aren't going to be close by the smoker, it's not going to be for you.

    First brisket on BGE good but needs work

    Not sure, the only thing I can offer is I cook mine to a higher IT, 200-208. You might not have heated it enough to render everything?

    Brisket strike out

    Yup, it's amazing how that ash pan can be your friend! On long smokes, 12hrs or more, I've had so much ash build up I had to open it to get it back to temp! BBQmods.com makes a convection plate for them, but it's $90 and I've only heard one review, so? For what they are, and what we payed, they...

    Brisket size

    Trust me, the second one I did was inedible in any form! It was charcoal! I'd wrapped it in foil the grilled it around 450 for five hours! Don't do that!

    Brisket strike out

    Ahhhhh!!! You said it all right there! Brinkmann trailmaster le! I have the exact unit so don't feel insulted when I call it a POS LOL! Which side did you cook the brisket on, left or right? How, and where were you checking temps? Using the factory gauge? At grate level by the meat? Sorry for so...

    WSM 18 is it worth it?

    Maybe build a drum, but walk away from the Brinkmann idea! Wish I'd have bought a WSM instead of the horizontal trailmaster I bought, but my back issues were the winning plea, I just couldn't bend or hunch over like that to operate it. For that money, being nib, I'd jump on it and buy the...

    Offset smoker questions

    I'll second the amount of fuel used, it's tremendous! They are not energy efficient! I'll also add another tid bit I picked up from a Brinkmann Smok'n pit, yes, you can use direct heat, but how much are you going to enjoy cleaning out the cook chamber the next time you want to smoke and not have...

    Brisket strike out

    The best piece of advice I got for brisket was to keep the temps low! 210ish is what I was told to aim for, I normally average 220 on my stick burner, and go for an IT of 205-208, no matter the size. I've no idea how the "pit masters" manage to keep them moist at 325 and up! But they sure can...

    Fatty?

    Pimentos? Honestly, I've no idea! I was hoping to learn! Since the meat is already cooked what times/temps do you aim for?

    Brisket size

    I agree, an 8lbr is about perfect for starting with. That's about what my first one was, I learned the stall, how to control my temps and if I screwed it up I wasn't out much! But if you do it right, a family of three, there will be no leftovers!!

    wood/charcoal smoker sale

    I'm the opposite to the above, I try to shut it down as it climbs that way I don't have to stoke the fire to get back to temp. Say I want 220, at 160-180 I start shutting the air down. I'll go around half way then see what the smoke looks like and what the pit temp does. If I'm close on pit temp...

    Brinkman Trailmaster - Lava Rocks vs Tuning Plates

    I made a deflector plate, 12" total length, use lava rock and a water pan and still get temps 30-40 deg different side to side. So basically nothing I've got going on is helping much, lol! Now the ONE person that I know of that has the BBQ mods plate is really happy with it with no other mods...
