Wood pellet BBQ

[Wiredawg]

Friends,

I put on the brisket this morning. Expect 10 to 14 hours cooking time.

I like the brisket on top rack...even though pellet grills are basically convection smokers, there is more heat at the bottom than the top. when cooking two briskets, I rotate them about halfway done. I'll add more pics along the way.

Cheers, Ron

Wayne! Where's the grill? I'm lazy and sore today, so didn't look back through the posts...but my super memory (???) recalls you mentioning should you get the larger one... according to man rulz, bigger, faster, taller, longer, moer powerful is better.

Cheers, Ron

Fellow Chefs,

Here it is at 12.5 hours. Letting it rest for an hour, then popping into the fridge. Will slice it tomorrow and enjoy it.

Cheers, Ron

Will there be any left by tomorrow?

 

[Wiredawg]

yep, come on by and have some. I did cut off the tip... I love that butcher grind black pepper.

Cheers, Ron

Well Ron the $ gap between the two sizes it substantial and I got pulled in a few directions so far this week. I got on Tractor Supply to restock on some carhartt Tees (2 for $25) and I was looking at their grills and they have “Z grille”? They’re about 1/2 the price of the nice ones but no WiFi or extra probes. I think the small rec tec is tilting the scale.
The other direction I was pulled in was that since the weather is coming around, and I’m home on staycation, I gotta work on my truck. Yesterday I put the water pump in and I think today I’m taking the seat frame out to change the front tilt motor, and paint the frame/ legs.

You know there's a rebuild kit for the motor...its usually the gears that have stripped and frozen.

Good luck picking out the grill.

Happy cooking, Ron

Well my Friends, I must say the brisket is delicious. We'll have about 8 meals of this. Sliced it up, had coleslaw and the last of Easters collards.

Well, got to rest from working around the house and EATING.

Next time I'll share my bbq chicken recipe.

Cheers, Ron

Just needs a good slice of corn bread.

Exactly right! Now there's a man who knows his food. And I have some real pretty raw jalapenos that would really make that cornbread great. Maybe tomorrow.

 

[Cummins12V98]

Screw the corn bread!!! I would be gorging my self on the meat.

 

[Wayne M.]

I looooove corn bread! I am not a big pepper guy especially in corn bread. I can go dry n gritty or cake like either way it gets done in my small cast iron Dutch oven.
Ron, whatever happened to that brisket ?

 

[Wayne M.]

Oh I just looked back at post 69. Mmmm

I wound up in a Lowe’s today. Was eyeballing this one. It’s hitting the marks. What say you guys?

The grill looks great. I'm just wondering what the differences are.

Great taste in BBQ equipment... that's the one I have. I like mine as I've mentioned.

Cheers, Ron

The one at Lowes is the exclusive Pro Series with the shelves, one folding and one fixed. I highly recommend the shelves. And big difference in price...

Cheers, Ron
