Hi everyone,
Im going to be smoking my first brisket soon on my Memphis elite pellet grill, and am planning on following Aaron franklins video. He suggests putting a bowl of water next to the brisket, in order to help prevent the bark from burning. I think this seems like an easier option than spritzing for my first time.
The one thing im wondering, is how much water should i put in this bowl? Is it possible to use too much, and steam the food? I just want to make sure i use enough water to last the whole 250° cook, but not too much.
Thanks
