    Cooking times VS tenderness

    The brisket was 2.5 - 3 pounds. Next time I smoke, I will verify the temp on the built in with a second thermometer and let you know how accurate it is. Thanks for your help!

    Well I'm all for experimentation. Especially when it means eating the test results! Just looking for some pointers.

    Cooking times VS tenderness

    I tried smoking a beef brisket on low, and it reached 190 in a little over 4 hours.  But thats one of the ones I keep seeing people smoke for 10 or more hours. I also have done a few pork loins on low, and they are usually to 160 in 2 to 2.5 hours.  Nice and juicy, but not super tender where it...

    G/f is a vegetarian!

    I have done several racks of ribs, pork loins, chicken breasts, legs, wings, and once whole that turned out amazing! I tried doing a beef brisket that didn't turn out to bad. But my favorite is the bacon explosion, or as I have seen them called in here, fatties with a bacon wrap (see my profile...

    G/f is a vegetarian!

    Hi, Im Rob and yes my long time girlfriend is a vegetarian.  But don't hold that against me.  It means all the meat goes on my plate, and I dont have to fight anyone for the leftovers! I have an old smokey electric smoker, and have been very happy with it.  I smoke at least once a week, but its...
