    A book worth buying!

    I used to watch the Naked Chef all the time when I lived overseas, I guess he's got a new show coming on the Food Network sometime soon. Have to set the DVR for it.

    Well, it's been a long night but I made it through. Briskets turned out better than I had hoped for. Still new at it so I'll get the bugs worked out eventually I guess. I've had my little smokerfor a week tomorrow and put 3 briskets through it so with any luck at this rate I might have it...

    Question about temperatures...

    Haha, yeah, but I work nights and don't have to work tommorow. I made a brisket last weekend, first try ever and it was pretty amazing. I told some friends I would cook two up for a little get together we are having tomorrow night. Kind of stuck my foot in my mouth I think, but we'll see how it...

    Question about temperatures...

    Right on, I wrapped it with a flannel sheet my wife had in a storage bin in the garage and could almost watch the guage go up, sitting at just over 200 right now. I think that will help me out a lot. Many thanks bro.

    I wouldn't have to worry about the whole thing going up? It's getting a little late for a bon fire.

    Question about temperatures...

    I've got an electric smoker, (yeah I know, but I'm just getting started with this whole smoking thing) I'm trying to keep it as moist as I can, mopping it every 45 minutes to an hour. Like I said though, I'm new to all this so any advice would be appreciated.
