I have that same brinkman and use soaked chips thrown on the element (small handful every 30 min or so). I get a smoke ring.
dont believe you
I read if you throw some charcoals in there that it will create a smoke ring. I am not really worried about it. Im not in some competition
To be honest, an electric smoker is essentially the same thing as an oven. On the last brisket i did, which was my best one, I took it off smoker after the stall around 165-170, and stuck it in the oven after wrapping it.

I have a propane smoker and did a brisket a few weeks ago with the amazen pellet tray. I noticed if I stuck a small chip of wood in the bottom corner of the door to get a small 1/8 crack the pellets smoked much better. Maybe try that if you aren't happy with your smoke production.

I have this Smokin Tex and to be honest I couldn’t tell you if I get a smoke ring or not. I only use 2-3 ounces of wood chips for a whole brisket and it cooks the shite out of them.

the "smoke ring" is a by-product of combustion, which does not occur within the confines of an electric smoker.

Smoke
Electric

Well I’m sure everyone assumes you are the board expert at smoking meat. I’m guessing you prefer smoking logs instead of pellets?

YES is the simple answer.

im starting to question if people even know what a smoke ring is for those saying they achieve it in their electric smoker

How do you think the smoke occurs either from the built in chip tray or a Amazen pellet tray that most of us run in an electric?
I always have a smoke ring when I use mine. Granted it isn't as pronounced as when I use my WSM, but it's definitely still there.

I have a GMG and i get great smoke rings. Have a smoke tube as well but rarely use it because it's not needed.

Same trend where beer nerds think any IPA that is hazy and beautiful is delicious, even if it’s no better in taste than some looking more like poo water.

OK that’s fair but if you add soaked chips ( half cup) every 30 min for 3 hrs it doesn’t matter the heat source it’s going to produce smoke and a ring. ( Not as good as Smittys or Blacks)

Dude I use soaked wood chips and soaked chunks and never have gotten a ring.
Maybe we should have all the electric smokers posters agree to smoke a brisket one weekend.
You have to take a pic of the rig, where ur wood is getting heated, then final product.
Anyone game for a td electric smoker competition with pics?

I have an electric smoker and I've done this too. I've done the same with ribs. I am still experimenting with different methods. If you wrap, after you wrap it doesn't matter whether you finish it in an oven or a smoker or whatever.
I have yet to see a smoke ring in the briskets I've done, but they still taste great.

If you are setting your pellets on fire with a flame inside your electric smoker then I wasn't referring to you. I was talking about the way a electric smoker is built to be used. If you modify your smoker you can get all kinds of different results. obviously.
