I forgot to take pics while cooking as these are done so hot and fast but for my first time having this i have to say it was really good !!!!

I use this in the house and when making BBQ, its great https://www.thermoworks.com/thermapen-one/

Two completely different methods for those cuts of beef. For a thick steak I reverse sear. 225 degrees indirect. Once I get to 115 degrees internal I pull it off to rest while I am getting my coals really hot. Rest for at least 15 minutes so the internal temp stops raising, you actually want that internal temp to start dropping. Then, on the lower rack, sear it really good. You will love it. For brisket you want a temp of 250 indirect, just foil under works great to act as a deflector and to catch the drippings. Get the internal temp in the flat to about 165 then wrap in butcher paper (uncoated brown butcher paper) and then put back on until your internal temp get to about 202. Probe from the side not the top. Probing tender is more important than the actual temp, every brisket is a little different. Once that is done wrap the brisket in foil, leave the paper on, and put the whole thing in foil and put it in a cooler covered with towels for at least 4 hours. Then pull it out to rest on the counter for awhile as it will still be extremely warm. Those are the basics. Everyone does it a little different but start with that and you'll be a master in no time. Also, for both cuts I use Meat Church's Holy Cow. It's my go to for beef. Yardbird for poultry and Bad Byron's Butt Rub for anything pork. Those three are my personal favorites. Hope that helps, always start with the KISS method and adjust as you learn

Cooked to perfection !!!!

Looks great !!!

probably, i wouldnt doubt it with what has been happening today

Good job !!!!

I don't think they are being reposted, just being marked as unread. No idea how or why.

Interesting, he is a Moderator so maybe that has something to do with it ??????

Interesting that this post from 2006 shows up as unread content lol

Sounds good

Looks great !!!

It a couple hours there will be turkey sandwiches I'll update with the turkey pics in a couple hours

Fireboard Pro 2 with their wireless probe, BBQ Guru fan, matter of fact I am just about to stick it in a turkey. I'm going to spin it Is their user interface great ? NO, i don't think it is but the controller works really well. If I was starting from scratch I'd go thermoworks because their wired probes are great and I have heard really good things about their newest controller/fan setup.

That looks great !!!!!

I just dropped my duck temp from 375 to 350 and we thought the fat rendered better. I might try 325 next time. We like duck

Yesterday was my lady friends birthday so i cooked up her favorite, duck breasts. I cooked these at 335 instead of 375 to render just a little more of the fat, cooked for 30 minutes instead of 20, the results were really good. She said they were the best ones we have ever made

I would call and see what they have in stock in NV. They probably have some 32's ready to go 👍

After the pork loin went over so well last week we decided on pork chops yesterday. Cooked indirect for 45 minutes at 250 then seared a little on the lower grate. They did not disappoint

Looks good 👍

I probably could have trimmed off a little of that fat cap or cooked it longer to render it some more but we are extremely happy with the results. I will go back and buy up any they have left for the freezer. Its called Chairmans Reserve, I've never heard of it but i ;ike it. And they have tomahawk chops that were fantastic too !!!!

One of the local butcher shops had whole pork loin on sale for $2.19 a lb. So i had to throw one in. Cooked at 250 until the IT was 138. Then tented in foil for an hour. most of this went into vac seal bags for quick meals when needed. It is some really tender and juicy posk

I forget more often than i remember lol

Do you add a little baking soda to your dry rub ? It changes the PH of the skin and helps it crisp up a little.

Interesting, did you cook direct the whole cook ?
