    Big Batch Vortex Chicken

    Although I won't deny this works, a Vortex concentrates the heat in a much better way. You can get close to 500* with its use. If you notice my pix, I've foiled wrapped the entire area outside the Vortex itself, providing a means to catch grease of course, but further making sure the air flow...

    About Smoked Beef Short Ribs

    First of all I never wrap beef ribs. You can if you want to get through a stall but I just let them go. Theses do not cook at all like pork ribs (3-2-1 method) but should be treated more like cooking brisket. Here are some I did a couple of months ago. I salt brined over night, seasoned and...

    First off I would dry brine your ribs overnight. That means adding about 1/2 a teaspoon of salt per pound of meat. The salt will penetrate the rib proteins. All other spices added are generally too large from a molecular standpoint and don't really penetrate very far into the meat, it's a...

    How would you cook this Brisket point...

    More rest would have helped in a faux cambro. Nicely done otherwise, perhaps getting it up over 200* IT may have helped as well.

    Eye of Round?

    Although you don't seem to have the time, I've even done eye of round pastrami via the smoking-sous vide-smoking method. Very tasty. But agree with others, don't run the IT up too high or you will have shoe leather on your hands !!!
