    I`ve been doin smokin bbq`s for 60+ yrs, and i`ve never seen the "aluminum boat" method before. I`ll give it a try! Looks like it worked really well for you!

    Thank you for answering a question that I had.
    Said question was, if I'm using a probe. Which temp do I focus on for a proper meat temp. My grill gauge would always be higher than my probe gauge. But it would take for ever to cook. I've always felt the grill was never hotter than the box. After watching this video. I see that you have the grill gauge at high temp and just focus on the ambient temp with a grill gauge.
    I see that you're using 3 different temp methods.

    So my offset is different to control temp obviously due to wood split variance, moisture of wood, wind etc. My question is how it effects the internal temp of the meat? If it’s dancing between 200-300 degrees, is it possible to overcook due to this? As the brisket sat at 170 for the longest time until it hit 200

    Hey guys. New to smoking!
    Looking at doing my first brisket soon. Just a few questions
    1 - would you be maintaining the 250-270 the whole cook?
    2 - are you adding wood to smoke the brisket even once you put the brisket in your foil boat?
    3 - at any stage would you be adding more coal?
    Thank you

    • @LownSlowBasics
      @LownSlowBasics  6 дней назад +1

      @@lukeadams5557 hey mate, yep try maintain that temp whole cook. Wood fuels an offset the whole time but once wrapped in foil you can finish in oven to make life easier at same temp. No need to add more coal if adding log splits when running an offset.

    fantastic cook per usual Aaron. in regards to the" boat" could you just use a large foil tray or is there secret special theory around the snug fitting boat you have made here ?

      Hey mate! Thanks 🤘
      You can use a tray but yeah I just think it’s better being a bit more snug and it helps create a little more radiant heat around the brisket.
