Thanks to all the great posts with advice that I've learned from on this forum Im cooking my first brisket ever tonight. Keeping it simple-olive oil salt pepper garlic and onion powder.
Been on since 8pm and its almost 12:30am now. Everything seems to be doing what its supposed do. :-)
I'm mixing hickory and mesquite wood logs..first one, then the other keeping the fire around 250ish.
Now maybe I'm just too tired tonight but it seems like the hickory puts off a lot more smoke than mesquite. I'm letting them get good and hot before putting them on the flame. Just wondering if there is a difference in the amount of smoke between woods or is time for me to go to bed because I'm imagining things???
