Brisket, Ribs & Beans
Outside temp was 45°
5:00 AM - Make Coffee
5:05 AM - Fired up Smoker using my trusty old weed burner
5:10 AM - Pulled Brisket out of Fridge
5:11 to 5:40 AM - Drink Coffee
5:40 AM - Trim Brisket, Season and get ready for the smoker
6:00 AM - Smoker at about 250° Put on Brisket
6:03 to 7:00 AM - Drink more coffee glance at smoker every
once in a while.
7:00 to 7:30 AM - Ran to the store to get stuff for Beans
7:30 AM - Threw another split on the fire
7:30 to 11:00 AM - Throw another split and a little charcoal
every so often.
11:00 AM - Start browning bacon, cutting up onion, peppers,
and bell peppers for beans (Dutch’s Wicked Baked Beans)
11:20 AM - Took Baby Backs out of fridge, trimmed, pulled off membrane
seasoned and finished putting together the beans.
11:30 AM - Ribs and beans ready for smoker.
11:55 AM - Pulled brisket off to wrap, put on Baby Backs &Beans
Brisket back on, put another split on the fire.
1:00 PM – Spritzed Ribs (Apple Cider), everything looking good
1:20 PM – Added another split and started another chimney of charcoal.
1:30 PM – Added charcoal.
2:00 PM – Pulled Baby Backs wrapped and back on.
2:00 PM - Outside temp 60° Cloudy and damp
2:40 PM – I checked the temp on my brisket, this is something
I hardly ever do, simply because I have cooked so many
I can tell by feel and looks. But the temps were 180 at the
big end (Point) and 190 at the small end (Flat), after 8.5 hours,
getting close.
3:20 PM – Added a little more charcoal, unwrapped ribs and brisket.
Temps were 196° at the flat and 190° at the point.
4:00 PM – Pulled the Ribs and Beans.
4:15 PM – Pulled the Brisket. Just a little over 10 hours today.
203° at the flat and 212° at the point
(a little higher than I like at the point)
That’s why you just can’t go by time, it was done quicker
than I had expected .
I started out with my temp at 250° but let it ease back to 225° and held
that the rest of the smoke. Used Hickory and a little Pecan.
Also, you guys and gals who have a side burner on you grill its great for starting you chimney.
4:30 PM – Everything resting till supper time. Yum Yum
