    Whole packer and Boston Butt with Q-View

    Whole brisket after 40 minutes of resting Slices of point for burnt ends. Not much of a ring, but great bark and smoke flavor. I kinda wish I skipped on the burnt ends and just sliced the whole thing cause what I'm tasting now is great! Point cubed for burnt ends, with a little extra spog...

    Temp got up to 165,but then dropped down to 160 so I figured it was a good time to wrap. I put it in the pan with is drippings and added a little beef broth. I think I'm going to unwrap at 195 to help firm the bark up but also to just make it easier to probe to make sure it's done. I'm not sure...

    Whole packer and Boston Butt with Q-View

    Brisket doesn't have to be lonely anymore. I added some Hickory to the oak for the pork and she's cranking out some pretty nasty looking smoke :-/ Also adding the pork made my thermometer get a little loopy for some reason. I was holding steady at 230°, added 7lbs of 35° meat, and now the temp...

    Before you say anything, don't make fun of my door seal! It isn't pretty, but it keeps the smoke locked in,

    Brisket is on at 1:15, which is right on time for me. It's a tight squeeze in there even with a can under it, but she's in there! I usually rub right before going on the smoker, but I let it sit for a couple hours this time and applied a little extra right before putting her in. Smells good...

    Everything is an estimate with smoking. I've had butts that I thought were going to take 18 hours finished in 12. Ya never know what's going to happen

    Whole packer and Boston Butt with Q-View

    I have an 11 pound brisket and a 7 pound butt going on the smoker tonight. My goal is to have them both done at 5, rest for about 2 hours and ready to serve by 7. I'm thinking 12 hours for the butt, and 16 for the beef. Brisket goes on at 1 and the butt at 5. No sleep for me tonight! Smoking...
