For my first attempt, I got a shoulder picnic roast. I want to give it a try tomorrow since weather is supposed to be better this weekend. There will be a lot of room left in the smoker, so I also got a 1 lb tube of Jimmy Dean sausage (is this what you call a "fattie" right)?
My question is, I only have 1 digital thermometer so I should put that into the one that will cook fastest, then switch it over to the other piece of meat. Should I start out with the thermometer in the "fattie" since it is smaller?
I also have some peppers and a large onion I was going to smoke at the same time.
Another question is about brisket. I love it but have only had it when I get down to Austin Texas. I looked for it in the store and the only thing I could find is corned beef brisket. Is that what you use, or is it a fresh brisket?
Thanks for any suggestions and thanks for the warm welcome to the forum.
