    Second cook on the egg

    So I am just doing my second cook on a large egg but my first high heat steaks. Got some New York strips from Costco seasoned with smoked salt and black pepper.

    New to the Big Green Egg

    I just got a large big green egg yesterday and did baby back ribs on it for my first cook today. Did if for 6 hours about 240-250 degrees for most of the cook and it came out pretty well for my first time.

    Too smoky flavor

    Thanks everyone! I definitely appreciate the feedback. I was using about 12-15 charcoal briquettes in the starter but then pouring it over a full pan of unlit charcoal briquettes and wood. The person from whom I bought it included a fan/thermometer so that is sealed onto one of the vents on...

    Too smoky flavor

    So I have used my Weber 18 a few times now - chicken wings, baby back ribs and a turkey breast. All 3 of them came out okay but the flavor had a little too much smoke compared to when I cooked on a propane smoker. I am using a charcoal starter and then putting wood into the pan with the...

    First time on charcoal

    I should add that i did have to add charcoal and the temperature dipped a little bit before I did that. Otherwise, it was pretty smooth sailing once I was able to get the charcoal lit and going.

    First time on charcoal

    So it came out pretty well for my first time I feel like. Pulled it off when it was at 159-160. Some pieces towards the top and outside were a little drier.

    First time on charcoal

    Definitely. I have the turkey breast on the smoker at about 240 injected with a Cajun butter, olive oil on the skin, a little garlic herb butter between the skin and the breast and some creole seasoning on the outside. Been on since about 11:15 this morning with a few hickory chunks in the...

    First brisket - help

    So I did it today. Put it on between 250-300 for about 4 1/2 hours with a mixture of hickory and apple wood. Pulled it out with temperature of 210 so I know I should have probably pulled it sooner. Turned out not too bad for my first attempt I feel like. I put a rub on it of smoked salt, a...

    First brisket - help

    So I have a master built jams gas vertical smoker that I have had for the past 4 Years. I love brisket but have always been leery of trying it for fear of screwing it up. Our local butcher had it on sale this weekend and I thought it’s time to conquer it but not wanting to spend a ton of...
