I am a slightly seasoned Smoker, Ribs, chicken, Butts, Brisket but never a chuckie. So here goes nothing. Wifey likes beef more than pork so I hope this goes well. Any tips on IT. Should I go to 195. Then wrap and rest it. or?????
Pics to follow
"Mule" is right on.
Keep your exhaust pipe 1/2 to fully open and control temp by closing or opening Firebox vent.
this will get easier after you seal up the cooking chamber. Also lower the stove pipe or exhaust pipe
I would like to add my .02 cents.
There have been many great ideas on here so far. I use a shovel thingy to pull ash out myself.
But The addition of a charcoal\lump coal basket and lowering the exhaust pipe to grill level has been the biggest improvements so far.
My cooking temps are higher...
Thanks everyone. the pics don't do it any justice. I let it rest after taking it off the grill. When i started cutting it you could see how juicy it was. It needed No sauce. pull after tender. I was completely happy
So my brisket came out great. The family was all happy and took all but a little bit home. Thanks to all of you on here who helped in making my easter a great one.
