    Early Morning Brisket

    Beaver it got smoke the whole time but the Traeger doesn't put out a lot of smoke, in my opinion. I need to get a AMNPS to get a better smoke. I'm not sure how long you would need to have smoke on a more traditional smoker or with an AMNPS.

    Duke it did feel very tender at 190. I'm using a cheap meat thermometer, so it may not be very accurate.

    I'm using a Traeger Junior with hickory pellets. I only have the 3 setting switch, so I'm cooking on low. The temp is staying right around 200. I was hoping for more like 225 but the cold and wind are making it difficult. As for the cut of meat, it is a mystery cut. It was a full brisket that...

    Early Morning Brisket

    Got up at 4 am to start my brisket. I rubbed it down before I went to bed with yellow mustard and Jeff's Rub. This will be only the second brisket that I have smoked and the first time trying Jeff's Rub on one. The brisket is only 6.2 lb. but I decided to start it early because it is supposed to...
