    My first Smoke! W/Q-view.

    Oh yeah, time for the plateau. Still sitting at 165ish, just hit hour 12. I wish the outside (ambient) temp would stay put, but it has dropped down to 54. I am wrapped up in my sleeping bag sitting here in my chair on the deck. Going to be a fun night for sure. Now for some Q-view.

    My first Smoke! W/Q-view.

    Wow, now the outside temp is hitting just below 60. I went in and got my sleeping bag, to stay warm. I will survive the chilly night one way or another.

    My first Smoke! W/Q-view.

    Hour 10 is upon us. The brisket is looking really good and I can't wait for lunch tomorrow. The Fatty was great and I am sitting on my back deck trying to stay warm, went from 80s during the day and now sitting in the lower 60s. All is well though, I will stay warm. Enough with the ranting, now...

    Deer Loin Help...

    Alot of people don't like deer because of the gamey taste. If that is the problem, then marinate it in italian dressing, it will tame the gameyness down. I am not a fan of this, but I know it works.

    Just about 7:00pm CST now, been smoking for 6 hours now. The brisket is up to 145 now and is looking really good.

    My first Smoke! W/Q-view.

    Just tossed a fatty on, getting hungry and figured that would be good to eat throughout the night. Was just a regular fatty stuffed with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni. About to do another mop here in 15-20 mins, so more q-view to come.

    My first Smoke! W/Q-view.

    Well it is 5:00pm CST now and another mopping has taken place. I think I have finally gotten the smoke situation taken care of, we will see though. The brisket was sitting at 125 and the smoker temp was at 195. Going to be a long night, but it will be well worth it. Now for some Q-view:

    My first Smoke! W/Q-view.

    Having trouble keeping the smoke going. Seems that my wood chips are just burning up too fast. Is there anything I can do to resolve this, without having to open up and put more chips in?

    OK, we are off. I got the grill/smoker started at around 12:00 CST, and got it up to 180-225. I let it sit there for a bit so that it would not have any cold spots. I tossed the Brisket on at 12:45 CST. Q-view below. My Grill Added some foil to make the smoke go where I want it to. Some...
