webers are great. I've just never understood the point in a gas grill besides maybe cooking veggies and maybe some quick chicken legs outside.

It doesn't add flavor and you can't sear a steak. i've never tried to smoke on one, but i suppose it would be nice at keeping a constant temp.


I've been anti gas grill for several years. I tried one steak on it, and it was shite compared to charcoal. But for veggies and chicken, it works pretty well. If I didn't find it at 80+% off retail, I wouldn't have bothered. But Weber does make a damn good version.

Next time I go bone-in chicken breasts, I'm going to try to smoke it as heavy as possible. Worst case scenario, I'm out a few bucks on mediocre chicken, with a grill I can probably sell for higher than I paid.

I haven't tried the new infra red gas grills. But there's no way it can compare to a legit charcoal grill with good coals. Maybe it would be convenient for cooking sous vide steaks. But for cooking a couple of Ribeyes, I haven't found anything that works better and more efficiently than my cheapo Weber 14" Smokey Joe.

Smoked overnight. 2 small flats and 2 small butts are cooling down. I cool down in oven as opposed to foil. Hour at 170 and hour at 150. One larger point is at 175.

Did you still wrap in the oven, or cover?

No need from what I see. This is just more of a slow cooling down function to retain moisture

I buy them split. I just don't have need for an entire brisket.

I'm doing a lot today so I can freeze and eat later and donate

Tried a new method today that I found online. Dry rubbed it last night and stuck it on the Primo XL this morning at 8:00. Let it sit for five hours at 275 degrees. Just pulled it off and put it in a pan with garlic, onions, bell peppers, BBQ sauce, and a 12 oz amber beer then covered it. Stuck it back on the Primo and I'm going to let it bake for the next three hours or so.

It was pretty good. The ends were a little tough but the middle was tender. I won't put BBQ sauce on it next time and I wasn't wild about the rub I used.
