First Time Brisket
This turned out to be the best brisket I've ever eaten! It was just a "touch" salty but there's salt in the rubs, injection and sauce. The only thing I would change is the salt in the coarse rub. Overall, the cook time was about 8.5 hrs. Started at 250° for 5 hrs. Pulled the brisket off... -
First Time Brisket
Wrapped the flat w/foil and some of the injection liquid and back onto the smoker. Wrapped the point in butcher paper and back into the smoker. Will check in a couple of hrs for temp. And a little "snack" for the chef! :emoji_wink: -

First Time Brisket
I have been smoking on a Yoder YS480 for about 8 years and never attempted a brisket. Costco had a sale on a prime grade full packer for $4.99lb. Yep, bit the bullet and brought it home. Got up this morning and trimmed, injected, seasoned and on to the smoker about 9a. I'm running at 250°... -
Should I update my Yoder?
Hey everyone! Haven't posted in quite awhile. Curious what you all have to say .... I have 2 smokers, a Yoder YS480 (original model) and a Traeger Ironwood 650. Both have similar grate space but operate differently. The Traeger that I have is WiFi connected and I love having the ability to...- rcher

Super Bowl 2017 - What's on the menu?
Super Bowl munchies today are a 3lbs salmon filet that I brined last night and just took off the smoker about 30 mins ago. Set up again for baby back ribs that should be done about game time! Kick back with a bloody mary, munch on smoked salmon and watch the game.- rcher

A good grill smoker combo? Does it exist?
I just purchased a Yoder YS480 for the exact same reasons you are looking for. Let me start first by saying that anything mechanical, can/will break. There are a very few select pellet grills out there that will do what you want. I researched a lot of smoker/grill combinations and felt that...- rcher

First Pork Butt on New Yoder YS480 (Q-View)
I bought mine from a local distributor and it did not have the 2 pc diffuser plate. I haven't decided if it is worth the $100+ for that option. I am waiting for others to review it's functionality. I love this smoker ... it's as close to "set it and forget it" as I've ever seen. I have been...
