Really you cannot see them?
Let me do it over.

 

Any better?

 

Now we're talking!

Are those short ribs? DROOOL!

 

Jim that brisket has me thinking I should give it another go, I've never had one turn out that well. Nice work!

 

Indeed they were. Guys gotto eat right!

 

Yes keep going until you get it.. can we help?

 

Those look great Jim!

I imagine the amount of brisket cooked by this group is an insane number... ( I do a lot!) So don't be afraid to query the hive mind.

 

I'm looking at (finally!) building a UDS this summer, can't wait.

BTW, I've had both Jim & Bill13's BBQ and can testify to their quality! :cool1

 

I would never turn down an offer to help! Do you have a go to recipe or web site that you like?

Beef is still a tough one for me. The only thing I can consistently make that I am happy with is jerky. And with flank steak so expensive I have not made that in a couple of years.

 

I should add I got for Christmas the Franklin BBQ book and saw his wrapping the brisket (like you have done) with butchers paper and I have never done that so I am thinking that's one of the missing pieces.

 

Well thats pretty open ended questions. I use salt and pepper as a rub mostly get the smoker up to 230 and then get it back to 230 after getting it settled. I will raise it slowly to 275 over the next 3.5 to 4.5 hours based on the size and phase of the moon. I will wrap in peach paper then and raise to 300+ until finished.
The meat will tell you when its done.

 

Anybody at MiM this year?

 

I stay subscribed to the Thermoworks news letter hoping to win the Mk4 weekly drawing. so far no luck.

they did just announce this rig for guys who smoke though.

That Thermoworks looks nice, just bought their oven model which does double duty with my smoker but this is tempting.

 

for smoking I have a CDC unit that has two sensors in one probe. so I get meat and cooker temp. for now, it will do the trick.

 

I'll wait for reviews. Maverick products are pretty decent for the money and considerably less.
