    I didn't have any interest in building a UDS until I saw these. They are awesome!

    Brisket prices

    A few weeks ago, WalMart here had a whole cooler case filled with prime briskets for $1.99/lb. I remember you telling me to "GO BUY THEM, NOW!!" LOL...

    Brisket prices

    I would say that is on par for what I normally see. Unfortunately, the Sam's Club nearest me only sells select briskets.

    Brisket prices

    Can't say that I blame you. Brisket went on sale here in TX around Independence Day. I was paying around $2/lb for choice briskets. Normal price here is closer to $3.50-$4. Can't speak for CA, though. I'm surprised y'all aren't buying air to breath by the pound out there, yet.

    Brisket prices

    Was it prime? Don't think I've seen higher than $5/lb for select or choice cuts.

    Welcome, fellas. I'm up in Farmersville, TX...about 35 miles north of Dallas. There is a Texas group on here that you may have not noticed, yet. Here's a link to it: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/f/3114/texas-members Happy Smokin'!

    Welcome, jdar! Back in my military days, I spent a few years in the Roswell area. Probably not too far from where you are. I grew up just outside of Athens in a town called Jefferson. But, enough about me, welcome to SMF! And thanks for the compliment on my cheeseburgers earlier!

    Hello from Texas

    Welcome to SMF, Jody. I live in Texas as well...north of Dallas in a little town called Farmersville. There is a Texas group on the site, too. Not too active at the moment, but I'm trying to direct folks to it. Here's a link: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/f/3114/texas-members

    Brand spanking new from Chicago

    I should also add, just in case, that like many other factory installed thermometers, the one on your WSM should not be trusted. Mine has been close to 30* off since the first smoke.

    Brand spanking new from Chicago

    Definitely a solid thermometer, ChiOkie. That is, if you don't already have one. I use the Maverick ET-732. It has two probes. One for chamber temp, one for meat temp. Coincidentally, your WSM should also have a rubber grommet for feeding two probes in without having to go under the lid. I...

    First Shot at Smoked Cheeseburgers

    They turned out pretty good, by the way (the cheeseburgers). A bit dry for my taste, but they were a solid hit with the wife and kids.

    First Shot at Smoked Cheeseburgers

    I'll keep that it mind, dirtsailor. Thanks for the heads up. I'll probably have 3 or 4 people here in addition to my family of 5. Probably not a bad idea to have an extra one at the ready!

    First Shot at Smoked Cheeseburgers

    Took my first shot at smoked cheeseburgers today...my family hates the "resting period" after I pull something off the smoker. Pretty stoked to see how they turn out. Next smoke, after all the hype I've read on here today, will be a fatty this weekend. If anyone has any tips, suggestions or...

    Jet Lag Baby Backs

    I'm not a lush, fellas...I refuse to drink before 9 am. That is when I started this morning...lol. Unfortunately, no pics of the finished product. Cook took a bit longer than expected and I had two teenagers, my 7 year old boy and their momma yelling for lunch. Had to cut em up and dish em out...
