    Misplaced Texan

    Welcome from Austin, Tx. You're gonna love this forum. Don't want to rub it in, but the family and I had a big crawfish boil last Sunday. Nothing in the smoker, but the mudbugs were delish.

    Brisket overnight on MES

    Got it. Now I have to get my nerve up. Does your control run higher than your smoker thermom?

    Brisket overnight on MES

    Thanks Ronp. Just a little confused. Set the smoker to 210* or the temp probe to 210*, since I will have the smoker at 225-235? Sound delish with the meat slowly cooking in au jus and onions. Also, my control seems to run higher than my Maverick therm. Do I go 225-235 on the control or on...

    Brisket overnight on MES

    Excellent. I've found my MES control runs a bit high, as well. I use a Maverick ET-73, and the MES is always about 10 to 15 degrees higher. I also crush a lump of charcoal and add it to the chips at the beginning and again after an hour or so. It helps give a smoke ring. I'll see if it works...

    1st attempt at pulled pork with Q-view

    It looks wonderful. When's lunch....or even breakfast? Roll it in a tortilla with a bit of cheese and you're good to go.

    1st attempt at pulled pork with Q-view

    I add a bit more apple juice or water, if it seems to be cooking down too fast. It helps to retain the dripping juices.

    1st attempt at pulled pork with Q-view

    I always throw in a crushed charcoal lump at the beginning. It helps raise the temp as I heat up the MES, and I add another after the first hour of cook. I do get a smoke ring, but it may not be as wide as with other kinds of smokers.

    Brisket overnight on MES

    Don't I have to add chips a few times....at least during the first few hours. I'm thinking about starting around 10:00 PM.

    Brisket overnight on MES

    I would like to smoke a brisket overnight on my MES. Never having done an overnight smoke, I am asking for tips. I know I won't be getting much sleep -- ohhhhh the scarifices we make for smoked meat. I'm planning about an 8 lb. packer and hope to eat around 1:00 or 2:00 PM. Let me know what...
