Shootr's First Brisket Ramblings
I like the logic of injecting the flat - will do. Looking at recipes now - debating on getting a Meat Church or Butcher Pro vs. just mixing up my own. Figure I will do it thru the cryovac the afternoon before (6-8 hours before going on the grill). Then I would trim it, dry it, rub it, and... -
Shootr's First Brisket Ramblings
Doh, that would have been helpful... Camp Chef DLX24 Pellet Grill at 225 indeed. I take it I unwrap it to probe and wrap it back up if needed (not probe thru the paper)? -
Shootr's First Brisket Ramblings
The cut I got says it's just the flat - that's why I was thinking there might be less trimming than a packer might have. At 160 degrees, it'll hold together fine for handling and wrapping, yeah? I know timing is like you-know-what in the wind - so I'm throwing darts for start times - think... -
Shootr's First Brisket Ramblings
Picked up a Costco 13lb prime brisket flat for Christmas dinner. Never did one before. I don't think I've ever bought a $60 cut of meat before... My OCD is kicking in with research on how long it will take. Currently I'm figuring after trimming it will be closer to 11-12 lbs - so now it's... -
First brisket- pellet smoker
Late to the party but am researching briskets (I'm trying my first one for Christmas dinner). I also have a Camp Chef DLX, but only a dozen-15 cooks on it so far. I've found it keeps pretty good temps at 225ish (205-240) now that it is seasoned. Was wondering what the climate is where... -
Wi-Fi Temp Probe For Smoker CC Temp
Well, iced and boiled all 6 probes - they're spot on - so that's cool. Now I guess it's fooling around with probe placement in the CC to see what location get's the most accurate reading. The CC probe is dead center front to back and the little metal probe holder orients the other probe right...- Shootr

Wi-Fi Temp Probe For Smoker CC Temp
I have a 6 Probe Tenergy Wi-Fi Temp Probe. I put one on a stand on the grate to monitor the CC temperature The pic shows where the probe is, and the vertical rod on the far left is the temp probe for the Camp Chef DLX smoker. The wifi probe consistently reads 50 degrees higher than the smoker...- Shootr

Camp Chef DLX Issues?
I've had this model for about 3 months now. I bought some black fuzzy seal for the lid and I like that 95% of the smoke is now coming out of the chimney. My lid was nice and flush - but still smoked like crazy. I too was getting large temp swings at first, but last several cooks it seems to...- Shootr

Smokey bird
This makes me feel guilty for living in Arizona - that's some hardcore cooking right there! -

It Worked!
Thanks to tons of great info here, I pulled off my first Thanksgiving turkey! Injected on Tuesday with creole butter, dried it overnight Wednesday, and this morning rubbed in garlis salt pepper butter blend. Poured boiling water on the skin, dried again and rubbed more butter blend on it... -
Resting times for turkey
I'm smoking a 14lb whole turkey for our gathering this Thanksgiving. I've got the timeline down to pulling the bird at 1PM, put it in a foil pan and cover/seal with foil. That will go into a cooler with towels on top for a 40 minute drive to the venue. So it will rest 60-75 minutes before... -
1st Try at a Smoked Turkey
Thanks for the details I appreciate it. If you had to guess, what temp was the breast when you put the foil on? (I'm new to smoking in general and have been going mostly by temp). I'm guessing right now - maybe 150-155 degrees at the breast then tent it. Or if you tent at 165, the breast... -
1st Try at a Smoked Turkey
If I may tag into this thread... I did a test run on a 13lb turkey last weekend to see how it would come out. (Camp Chef Pellet Grill) Was at 250 degrees, brined, seasoned, and butter under the skin. Using multiple temp probes (1 in each breast and one in a thigh) I noted the white and dark...
