Boston butt and brisket

Hedlyna · July 07, 2012, 01:47:30 PM

Thanks again, I'm still new to smoking correctly. I used to just put it on at 1.5 hours per lb.....I didn't know any better. I don't have any friends that smoke so this forum has been a lifesaver.

What SiFumar said. Just keep it where you have it. Once the stall ends, you're home free.
Read this. It's interesting.

Lol, I'm such a newbie. The temp finally started to move and my timer kicked the smoker off so the temp dropped to 190 before I caught now the meat temp dropped back Down to 178 and is stuck again....thanks for the link.

I always kept the SG on for extra heat before I added a second element.

How hard is it to add the second element? I've never used the crutch on anything but ribs. I wrapped in foil and temperature took right off, thanks for everybody's help. Promise I won't have all of these questions next time.

Not hard at all. But along with a second or one 900w comes along a PID to control it or them. You really don't need it unless you need tight temp controls.
Mine was out of warranty when I did my mods.

looks good, how was the taste?

Hedlyna · July 07, 2012, 04:26:36 PM

Flavor is really good, first time I've used molasses, and Jan's rub. Nice bark
