This is exactly what I'm going to try next time. I have a vertical, not a UDS, but same thinking. Just want tender juice results.
Love that picture. Did she get one when you came out all soot covered?

After smoking 3 briskets, 1 as halves and 2 wholes, here is what I've noticed....All had good flavor and very tenderOn the whole briskets, the flat was over done. It would break into to little bits trying to cut itfoiling and holding them, caused the bark to softencooking multiple meats in the...
Ribs finished at 7:15 pm ... so much for the 2 hours. Flavor was good, inside tender, outside tough. They were very lean so that might have caused it.
Brisket finished at 9 am. No pictures yet, had to wrap and cooler it as it needs to keep to 3 pm. It went on right around 3 pm yesterdays, so...
I put the meat on at 3:30. Here is a shot of it in the smoker
That should put the whole briskets around noon tomorrow but give time incase they cook slow. I'll throw the 1/2 brisket on later tonight.
Ribs are getting close now.
Here's the plan....
Dinner tonight - 7 lbs of boneless pork ribs, about 1/2 lb each, EST 2 hrs?
Tommorrow for 3 pm meal
1 12lb brisket - EST 19 hrs if alone
1 10.7 lb brisket - EST 17 hrs if alone
1 6.6 lb brisket (point from the last time I did brisket) - EST 10 1/2 hrs if alone.

On my first brisket, a 7 pounder, I trimmed, scored the fat, rubbed it and through it in with 4-5 chunks of Hickory and let it go till it hit 185, which was 9 hrs. Was very tender, juicy and very rich flavor. Maybe beginners luck as it came out so well.
Thanks for the huge welcome on my Roll Call post, it was very impressive and gives new people the feeling of being welcomed and they've come to the right place (even though I got chidded for no qview of my 3 first smokes with my GOSM)
I'm planning my next smoke for a get together on March 6th...
I'm John. After years trying to do great ribs on the grill with ok results and inspiration from BBQ Pitmasters, I got interested in smokers. I wanted one large enough to cook for the large family gatherings of 30-40 people, plus convinient to use regularly without forking out a grand. I liked at...
