Mods are all done (although I think the holes in my 2 lid vents might be small)- a few questions to start with...
1-what is a good 'first smoke'? Just want to learn fire control, etc...but possibly still be able to eat the food I cook, lol
2-Once i've nailed down temps, brisket is going to be my first one...I was curious what temp you all cook at? I've seen ECBs on here at 230, then some say regardless of smoker type to cook at 250?
2a- about how long does it take to do a brisket on the ol ecb? (i know thats a loaded question, I just wanted to get a range)
3- regarding charcoal and wood: how much to use?
I did comb 5 pages of threads and didn't see the answers to these....trying not to wear people out hahaha
