My first brisket on my new WSM turned out very "acceptable". It wouldn't have won any awards but I doubt anyone...
Here is a few photos....... IT meat temp has been stalled at 156* for quite some time now and I'm 8.5 hours in.
Rubbed down for an over night stay in the fridge
7 1/2 hours in.........IT meat temp stalled for a long while
I'm an hour in, and the difference in temps from my probe at the grate and the lid thermometer is @25 degrees. Probe at the grate is reading higher. This thermometer is new to me and its digital so I'm assuming its more accurate then analog one in the dome.

I familiar with the minion method but I'm looking for operating tips such as vent positions (all 4) to...

I have a char griller w/ SFB, a Masterforge electric (piece of junk) and just picked up a WSM 18.5.
My ribs usually turn out decent. Chicken hasn't been bad....that's about all...
