    Brinkman electric smoker - How long until the wood chips start to smoke?

    If you can smell sweet smoke thats better than seeing alot of smoke. Maybe try pellets next time I like them alot better than chunks and chips now that I have tried them.

    Brisket point is almost unedible, why?

    Next time go fat side up and separate the flat and point at about 165 on the flat then measure both pieces of meat individually. The point is really a separate cut of meat  and can take more or less time depending on the conditions.

    Beef Jerky,The good, bad and ugly..

    Use Ice or frozen bottles of water and keep adding to it when you notice your temp going up add more ice. When making jerky if you use a cure you can get away with a bit more moisture as the cure helps take care of those bad guys.

He is friendly, remembers who his customers are, and on top of all that he serves one hell of a Deli sandwich. He...

    SOS...My 2nd try with Brisket Tomorrow

    If you have a good butcher that gets quality beef you have a easier opportunity to get smaller cuts of the animal. My butcher gets local grass fed beef, which means that there is less chances of hormones injected into it. Which means I get "organic" without paying the price tag.
