Hey all - Thanks for the nice welcome comments........Had my first 3 smokes this weekend with my #2!! Saturday I did a 6lb loin, brined overnight and smoked at 225 for 3 hrs. till 145IT. Great flavor, but I thought that was quick for a piece of meat that big? Then Sunday I brined a whole chicken, smoked it at 245 till 165IT and that was great...so I topped off the night and did 2 tenderloins in a rub for an hour till they hit 145IT. Those were for mama, and she said they were very tender and awesome flavor. I have to say, this is truly "lazy Q", and turns out a great finished product. My days of the Brinkman Grill and smoke might just be done.....thanks for all the notes and look forward to more smoking!!
