    Beef Jerky, How much sea salt to be safe in a food dehydrator?

    Keeping brisket warm for 4 hours, should I worry about temperature rise? 2nd brisket failure?

    Thank you guys again for taking time out and explaining. I can't wait to do another one. Petehalsted, I always heard people say 1/8" - 1/4" cap. I guess it's just preference, idk.

    Thank you everyone for your replies. I never would have thought that the second brisket wouldn't be cooked enough. it was real dry and tough, I couldn't imagine cooking it longer. You guys know better than me though. I will take all your advice, thank you so much. What is the deal with...

    Keeping brisket warm for 4 hours, should I worry about temperature rise? 2nd brisket failure?

    Hey guys. I am new to smoking but I've read a lot about it and smoked a few things on my barbecue. I finally purchased a RecTec 700RT pellet smoker. I do respect what most of you do with the stick burners, but for me, I needed something I didn't need to tend to. So far I am happy with the...
