How should i layer wood chunks in a Big green egg type smoker?
Hi everyone, Im going to be cooking a beef tenderloin soon on my Primo Ceramic smoker, and will be using wood chunks for the first time.

On the package it says 13.5 lbs, and i think its already trimmed a bit. I've never trimmed a brisket before, but im guessing it should be around 13 pounds once its ready. Its also a wagyu brisket, not sure if that makes a difference though. -

Following Aaron Franklins video for first ever brisket. How much water should i put in the bowl?
Yea ive noticed that a lot of people prefer spritzing and/or mopping. In his video he mentions both of those options as well, this just seems like an easier place to start than opening up frequently to spritz/mop. Do you guys think a bowl filled with about 8 cups of water would be good? I want... -
