After about 4 hours in the cooler, we sliced them up. Some portions of the cap piece were a little over cooked - still moist and flavorful, but it fell apart like pulled pork when I tried to slice it. Other parts sliced nicely, and those must have been the areas that were just...
Our daughter graduated from Western Washington University last week, and today is the big party - so I opted for a beef brisket, to which said graduating daughter was very agreeable!
Started with a 13.5# full brisket from Minder Meats, a great local meat supplier. I think these briskets were...
Mickey Jay, I see you're just across the sound from me - hope your power stays on today and no trees falling on the roof, etc. Seems like the usual Thanksgiving Day weather event here in the PNW. I just put a 14# Pops brined turkey into the MES for the family festivities later today, but...
Dan I've used this standard brat recipe for a few years now and it's very popular with my family and friends.

Using a typical pork shoulder for the meat, I've found that adding about 1 part extra pork fat to 5 parts shoulder, by...
I just did my first brisket a few days back, and with all the great info I've learned from this forum, I thought I'd post up a few notes - might be helpful to someone. (Sorry if this should go somewhere else, I thought this would be a good place). Here are the specifics:

Jimmy J, I've mulled over using that brine recipe of yours for some time - and now I've done it, with an 11# all-natural bird just coming out of a 24 hour soak. At first I thought the ingredients looked a little strong for poultry, but once I mixed it up - mmmh, great aroma and the bird looks...
Made this over the weekend for the first time, and it is a winner - everyone at our party thought it was great. Our usual sauce is Carolina style mustard/vinegar based so this one gave us two different styles for our guests to choose from.
I used siracha sauce for the hot sauce, since we had...
I've been keeping the vent open, but have not tried removing the chip tube, which I assume provides added airflow. I'm going to be running 10# of bacon this weekend and will give that a try.
Thanks for the tips!
For my third effort with the new MES 30 I decided to go with one of our standard recipes - good old pulled pork. Started off with two pork butts about 7-8# each, these had already had the bones removed when they were packed. Rinse off, and then rub down with several squirts of yellow...
Thanks Bear! I've got several friends volunteering for taste test duty. And, I think tonight is going to be BLTs and some homemade split pea soup for dinner - perfect for a drippy, cool June evening here in the Seattle area.....
