Smoke time for two individual boston butts?
Done. Turned out excellent. 16 hours total. -
Smoke time for two individual boston butts?
Thanks. Reason I asked is because I have a family reunion today at 4pm. I put both butts in last night at 1030 at 220F. At 8am this morning, the internal temp is 156F. So I've got 8 hours to go. Should I bump up the smoker temperature to help move things along? -
Smoke time for two individual boston butts?
If I have two 7 pound Boston butts, is the total smoke time for them together 7x1.5= 10.5 or 7x2x1.5=21 ? -
Brisket smoke today
Took out of oven at 1:30pm. Turned out really well. Wife and daughter say it's my best so far so I guess that's the best I could hope for :) -
Brisket smoke today
Houston, we may have a problem... I just noticed my temp probe isn't reading correctly :( in a glass of cold water it reads 181F. Now I'm not sure what temp the meat was. It did pass the toothpick test though so I guess I'll see when I eat it later. -

Brisket smoke today
So once the brisket reaches 200/205, you open the foil up and leave in the oven at 170DegF for a couple additional hours instead of wrapping in a cooler and that gives you better results? -
Brisket smoke today
I picked up a 13lb brisket yesterday at Costco and put it into the MasterBuilt smoker today at 4pm (EST). I am estimating around close to 20hours from start to finish. It's currently 7DegF outside and it's going to be around 3DegF by midnight. I plan to let it sit in the smoke until around... -

Sorry for the duplicate thread. I didn't think my original went through. -
Masterbuilt died with Boston But inside
Last night at 12am, I put the meat in with chamber temp at 220F. This morning at 7am when I checked, the chamber temp was 69F and meat temp was 140F. The heating element was not on and the Masterbuilt was calling for heat. I moved the meat into the oven at 220F. Should this be ok since the... -
