    Smoke time per pound of butt?

    I just did 2-8.5 lb butts (no bone) on Saturday and it took them 10 hours.  The smoker was between 210-250 the entire time.  Wrapped them in foil at 165 and pulled them at 200.

    Brisket Problem

    I am going to be checking the thermometers out to make sure they are correct.  From now on I will not inject or probe prior to the 4-5 hour mark.  Arnie I have been getting my briskets at a place called Cash and Carry...don't know if you have a place like that there it is a lot smaller than a...

    Brisket Problem

    I am using the Maverick ET73 therm for the smoker and the meat.  I moved the thermometer around and it actually dropped down about 5 degrees to about 132.  It was a thick piece of brisket and I used a regular thermometer and the temps were the same as the Maverick.   I have done other briskets...

    Brisket Problem

    Thanks Bear....the actual temp may have been between 135-140 when it stalled...I have done a couple other briskets and never have had this problem.  I will figure out if I am going to chance it or not, I am leaning to going out to dinner though.

    Brisket Problem

    Ok, so I have been smoking a brisket for about 7 hours now between 225 and 250 degrees.  The Brisket hit a stall at around 130 degrees and it has been stuck there for probably close to 2-2 1/2 hours.  I have not yet hit the 140 mark, is there going to be a problem with this brisket or are we all...

    2nd time smoking ribs same problems

    I would drop the cayenne pepper down to about a tsp and see how that works.  If it is creosote that is causing the numbing you will also get a bitter taste.

    Two "Rookie" questions about 3-2-1

    If you want the meat to fall off the bone then you have to use foil....I just did some baby back ribs last week and didn't use foil and smoked them for 5 hours, they turned out great but didn't fall off the bone which was fine because they were for a work Christmas Party!

    First time smoking pork shoulder...

    A good thermometer for smoking is the Maverick ET73.  It runs around $40.00 online.  I bought one recently and it works great!  SmokingJD your QVIEW looks great, I see it didn't take long for you to get hooked on QVIEW!

    Chuckie help?

    I just did  a couple of chuckies last weekend (1st time), I put on mustard and then the rub.  The chucks  were about 2 lbs each and were only about 1 inch to an inch and a half thick.  I smoked them at about 235-250 and they went up to 165 in just over an hour and then I foiled them and cooked...

    Beer Can Chicken

    Thanks guys...actually the firebox sits back a little bit so the grate in front of the cooking chamber keeps you far enough away from the box.  It is a little warm but I haven't burned myself yet.  A local guy builds these bbq's in his spare time from his auto body shop.  He has done some great...
