I bet not too many of them mentioned cooking hot n fast. Hard to break them habits.

If you're ever in a hurry, or just to try it once, crank the heat. I cook all my briskets and pork butts at 300*-325*+ anymore. Done in 4-6 hours with nothing lost on the taste and tenderness.

Several comp teams are winning this way as well. Try it once :thumbsup:
ah. ok.

i suppose i've done that a time or two, but not for the whole time. on brisket or pork shoulders, if i get tired of the temp holding at that 165 F plateau, i'll crank the heat up to 300 or so and they're done in what seems lik an hour. but i'll only do that if its 11 pm and th things have already been cooking for 12 hours. i'm not one to enjoy staying up til 3 am waiting on the temp to rise.

my brother smokes that way, hot n fast, and he can't understand why it takes me so long to smoke something. but that's th eonly way he knows how.
