    Smoking a brisket flat at high heat

    Hey guys..Haven't been around for a while, and I'm about to do a brisket for my father-in-laws b-day. Last time I did one was 4 or 5 years ago, so to say I'm out of practice is an understatement..:emoji_laughing: I've got a Weber bulet and want to try the high heat method, but I'm curious if...

    Question about use of wood for smoking

    When I first started smoking, I was using mostly lump charcoal and now I have switched to using primarily oak.  For you guys that are using just wood to smoke with, how do you keep from oversmoking the meat?  Obviously when adding more wood to your fire, it has a tendency to smoke up.  This...

    Check out my new custom vertical smoker w/side firebox

    After struggling with a flimsy vertical Brinkman for several months, I decided I wanted to get something a lot more durable and built to my specs.

    Smoker Recommendation Needed

    Ok, I bought this Brinkman vertical about 2 months ago. Don't get me wrong, it's good for what it is, and I've used it several times. This passed weekend, I realized that it's just not enough smoker for me..The metal is flimsy and the paint is already peeling on the back where it's had too...

    Smoking a Bottom Round

    I wanted to do beef ribs this weekend, but the butcher and the supermarket were both out. So, I decided on a bottom round. I know it's not the best candidate for smoking, but I figured I would give it a try. I have a 5 and a half pounder. I'm going to do a dry rub and smoke it to 150. For...

    Smoking my first brisket pics included

    Got tired of the cheap old Brinkman bullet smoker and always wanted to smoke a brisket, so I went out to Wally World and picked this up the other day. Really wanted to get one with a side box but I'm limited on space, so this will have to do the job for now. It's another Brinkman, but this one...
