5698k Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 I recommend KISS. 50/50 sea salt, coarse black pepper. Cook at 250°, naked, fat cap down, until probe tender. Doesn't get much simpler than that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ora Posted March 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 So no wrapping just straight with my sexy carver lol Outback Kamado Bar and Grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5698k Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yep! No wrapping, no nothing. You're looking for roughly 200° internal, but start probing around 195°, but could go 205° or more until done.

primeats Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Use whatever rub you are comfortable with, I like my fat cap up for brisket, down for butts. I pull anywhere from 195 to 205.Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pequod Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 I always turn my fat cap to the side, but that's just me. Sometimes I shoot for a 45 degree angle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dozer996 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 I've had success with cap down around 250/275 until probe tender (200ish)I've had fails with cap up, burned the naked flare pretty good...the point was good but a crispy flat wasn't good. This is in a Kamado by the way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dozer996 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Had a diffuser below the brisket (previous cooker KJ Big Joe). Maybe the firebox being closer to the meat on the KJ was to blame?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
