20lb Prime Brisket
Yes, once it was done I let the temp drop slightly and held it in the oven at 170° for close to 6 hours! So much easier than transferring to a cooler with towels. When I first transferred it to the paper I put the entire paper wrapped brisket into a foil pan so the drippings just collected at... -
20lb Prime Brisket
Just a couple pieces of leftovers. Here's a shot of two pieces of the flat left so you can see bark. And a cross section of the point left. Might cube it up and make some day after burnt ends out of this. -
20lb Prime Brisket
Success! Everything turned out pretty much perfectly. The brisket went in at 1:00 in the afternoon on Thursday @225. I had originally planned on wrapping it before I went to bed but we weren't quite at 165 and I felt like the bark could use a little more development so I left it in the smoker... -
20lb Prime Brisket
OK, so if I am wrapping in paper and finishing in the oven @225-250, and then once I hit 205 IT if I want to hold it, do I even need to bother re-wrapping? Or do I remove from the oven, open the paper a little to drop the temp a bit, and then put right back in the oven at 170? Is wrapping... -
20lb Prime Brisket
Well I've never done hot n fast before, I'll admit I'm scared to try it. I have the time so I will probably stick to low & slow. I'm going to stick with putting it in at 225-250 around 2pm today then at 165°IT double wrap it in butcher paper. Depending on when that is, I may leave it in the... -
20lb Prime Brisket
There was an AMAZING sale at Costco...$2.99/lb for Prime Brisket and at 20lbs it's the biggest brisket I've ever seen, much less tried to cook. Like many, brisket is my nemesis although I have had success in the past cooking whole packers such as this. But due to the sheer size, I figured I'd... -

This makes sense and does seem promising. I will have to research rivet nuts.- jrapps

Possible to modify Louisiana/Pit Boss Series 7?
I have a Louisiana Grills 7 series vertical smoker from Costco. I like it, but the way my patio is arranged, the door is backwards from how I want it. Has anyone ever modified one of these to have the door swing the other way? I assume all I have to do is drill holes and move the hinges to the...- jrapps

New Pit Boss
Can anyone who owns the series 5 or 7 Pit Boss measure the Width and Depth and let me know the dimensions of the smoker body, AND the dimensions at the base? The numbers on their website are misleading and my local store only has it in a box, not assembled for me to measure. The pictures make it...- jrapps

Need help with cardboard smoker
I was planning on lining the inside of the box with heavy duty foil for better heat retention and fireproofing. I'll have to think about the stake idea as well. I scavenged an old propane burner from an old "broken" smoker I forgot about in the back of the garage. I may tinker this weekend with...- jrapps

Need help with cardboard smoker
So we are going to a vacation cabin in the mountains with friends over the summer in NC and I've been asked to smoke ribs one night but bringing a smoker up there with me is not an option. After scouring the Web I think the cardboard vertical smoker is the way to go to "build" a cheap...- jrapps

LET'S TALK BRISKET!!
This thread has inspired me to try Brisket again! I just got a brand new pellet smoker (my MES died a few weeks ago) but I have used it twice already so this won't be my first smoke on it. We have a family dinner on Saturday and I got a 13lb packer and I am ready to give this a go. Going to... -
Chips in AMNPS?
So I love my AMNPS although I admit despite trying multiple things I have read here on the forums I can't get it to stay lit in my MES40. Even with the chip tray all the way out and a small fan lightly blowing air into the intake, when the pellets get to the end of the first row along the back...- jrapps

20lb Turkey - and a Buttermilk Brine...need some advice
So it turns out that I can't even find Tender Quick in my area! So I guess that option is out...and I will likely have to Spatchcock. I guess there's a first time for everything. -
