@@lamarwilliams185 it's about the differences in airflow and convection, as well as the source of fuel. Charcoal vs wood, just like pellets vs wood. Not just BTUs, there is a lot more to it. I've done A/B testing with a pellet smoker (Yoder YS480) and a propane smoker with wood chunks (Camp Chef Smoke Vault). The propane smoker and chunks did produce slightly more smoke flavor - but surprisingly the pellet smoker produced a better complexity of flavors. This was agreed upon in blind testing from 4 family members at the same time on simple S&P Berkshire pork ribs. We hypothesized that the pellets being used as the heat source and not just a smoke source (as in the smoldering wood chunks in the propane smoker) had something to do with other flavors being generated by that combustion process. It was an interesting experiment. I like doing those kinds of comparisons.
@lamarwilliams1853 ай бұрын
@@tRdoc21 Keep up the good work and sharing. I heard from someone on KZbin that the airflow is what makes a big difference. I never paid attention to it. I only bbq on a SNS, a sears Propane grill or open fire pit for a hog. I never cared for propane. I started putting charcoal in the propane grill. Their was no way to control the heat. The open pit takes too much fuel but; turns out great bbq. It’s hard to control the heat but; you also have a distance to keep protein away from the heat. The SNS is my go to for simplicity. I have to take food off and put food on because of its size. I also like not having to bend down to cook. The in ground pit has chicken wire. The grates on the SNS are easier to clean. I want a Weber smokey mountain and a off set and a lone star grill vertical smoker to have the best of all worlds. That Brazos 2.0 looks great if I can not afford a work horse 1975.

Occasional oak chunks over the coals on the grate til smoldering, then into the coals for immediate flame. Creates a temp spike, but a good spritz helps protect.

But my Weber... my Weber is my most versatile MVP of all time! Additionally, I have a couple of smoker kits available with defuser plates to get a good smoke on the meat. And, personally, I like the heavier smoke, so wrapping the meat just isn't my thing. Of course, I'm not mad at those who do but I like it as smoky as I can get it. My use of fruit woods helps me avoid that bitter taste that comes with the heavy use of wood like mesquite.

Have made every single Brisket, Chuck Roast, Dino Rib etc in my life on a 35 yro classic Weber kettle. Have that same coal and water reservoir basket setup. Do the same foil boat technique the last 1.5 hours of cook. Only difference is I seal up the top and just leave it a bit loose for a steam outlet. Also put the meat on a low height rack and add a bit of steaming fluid like beef broth. It results in a very moist juicy meat and will help rehydrate any dried out thin outer edge spots. The added liquid doesn’t seem to degrade/soften the crust too much if you rack it. Not trying to brag but I get results not that far off a $1500 buck offset smokers and near a Texas BBQ restaurant in quality. You’re absolutely right. It’s mostly technique and you don’t have to necessarily use expensive smokers to get good results. The fancy offsets and pellet cookers are definitely convenient, but it’s more about experience, technique and practice to get a nice Brisket out of a cheap Weber

At about 6 hrs ran out of fuel added some charcoal but took an hr to come back up to temp and then at about 9hrs when I wrapped I had to add more charcoal and it wouldn’t come back up to temp. Then I used my brain and realized I had to clear the ashes out. During that time fiddling with the ashes I lost about 6-8 degrees on the meat. Came out good but a little dry on the edges of the flat.

A couple of things I've learned over the last few years smoking on a kettle. Snake is so much easier and more consistent on long cooks than S&S. Easily get 6 hours dead on 250, and 8 to 10 if outside conditions are right. Just spin the whole grate away from the fire every 2-3 hours. I also use wood chips instead of chunks. Sprinkle it over the whole snake and you get consistent even smoke throughout the whole burn. Chunks have given me more trouble than it's worth. Either they don't catch, they kill the snake, or spike my temps really hard. Lastly vent control. I open my top vent wide open and use the bottom to control heat. I start the fire with the bottom wide open. Once lit I put on the lid and close the vent halfway till operating temp then throw on my brisket. Once brisket is on and kettle comes back up to temp I'll close the vent to about a 1/4 of the way open. If it's a hot day and no wind I typically close the bottom all the way and it maintains for hours at 250. I've foil wrapped, paper wrapped, no wrap on my kettle and I've had really great results. Foil boat is next for the 4th. Thank you, sir.

There is a movement now to put it on well before that to pick up more smoke. Any thoughts on this?

My biggest issue while following long with your videos is burning/drying out the meat side on an off set. Been cooking fat side up and temps like you suggest in your videos. Any ideas?
@knoxavebbq2 ай бұрын
You’re cooking too hot for your smoker or you pit too much bottom heat. Could be because the fire is too hot the draw is too strong. Wood could be too dry. Or if you have a tuning plate that’s directing the heat it could be forcing it down and I would remove it. Can’t say for sure without being there but that’s where I would start.

I always use the hole vent on the side for controlling temps on my SNS for smoking. I get that Webers don’t have this available, but do you prefer using the bottom vents in the SNS for fire management?
@knoxavebbq3 ай бұрын
Honestly, I haven’t done much smoking with the sns other than much shorter cooks so I need more practice with it to find my preferences. I forgot about the hole. Haha

@KYRR303 ай бұрын
I know you mentioned you aren't advocating for between either one, but as someone who can't find diamond crystal very easy is the difference that significant? I've been using morton's for stuff on my kettle and it seems ok, but i haven't done a brisket yet (just done pork shoulder, belly and Chuck roast). Thanks for the foil boat explanation as well. I was one of the people doing is wrong.
@knoxavebbq3 ай бұрын
If I’m talking about the quality of the salt, the diamond crystal doesn’t use a decaking agent while Morton’s does, and since the grain is more uniform I find it better for everyday use. So the Morton’s won’t spread out as evenly. But if I’m just talking about seasoning briskets, I don’t think it matters too much. I would just try to do 2:1 by volume or weight it out like I did. This again is just my preference and the salinity I’m looking for. You may prefer more salt which would work if you have Morton’s

@knoxavebbq Thank you for the response. I did a little online searching and found a GFS that stocks Diamond. I will pick up some and try it out.

Can you explain the sweetness from the offset? I just did one on the oklahoma joe and I noticed that flavor. It was only on the burnt end side. Very tasteful and surprise.
@knoxavebbq3 ай бұрын
The offset has more convection which I think allows you to get a better render on the fat, while the convection on something like a kettle grill is minimal, but still gets the job done if you cook hotter at the right time.
@louieleos12183 ай бұрын
Can you please explain what rendering fat means a little in detail? Love the vid! I started smoking in a Weber kettle years ago. Every now and then I still smoke in it when I don’t want to tend to the offset.
@knoxavebbq3 ай бұрын
I want the day to be a little bit more golden instead of white. Comes from bumping up the heat later in the cook. You tend to get more rendered fat on an offset because it has more convection with the draw from the smoke stack.

Thanks for considering those of us that don’t have an offset. Any opinion on salting the brisket first and pepper after? Seems like you could control the amount of salt better?

That worked great. I would just give it a few minutes for the salt to dissolve first or else some of your pepper won’t stick.

Brother. This is perfect timing. I’m cooking a brisket for the 4th and I have a Weber summit. I was scouting your other videos this past week Lol to get ready for my 4th brisket ever. Yikes! I think I’m good though 🤞Oh, one question, if my oven is 170 at the warming level is that ok for the long rest?
@knoxavebbq3 ай бұрын
Nice! Glad I could help. I think it should be ok, just check on it periodically, and check the temp in the center of the lean and point to make sure it’s not getting too dry or over cooked. If it’s too dry you can add a small, oven safe cup or bowl with some water to add some humidity.
