Product Information

If you’re smoking for the first time, or if you’re trying a new type of wood, it’s always best to start with a small amount. You can always add more if you want a stronger flavor.

Before the meat meets the smoker, it’s crucial to give it some love and attention. Applying a carefully crafted dry rub enhances the flavors and creates a beautiful crust. The blend of spices, herbs, and a touch of sweetness adds depth to the final product. First: why mix woods in the first place? Well, there are a few reasons. For one thing, using just one type of wood can result in a somewhat one-dimensional flavor profile. By combining different woods, you can achieve more complexity and depth of flavor. Experimenting with different combinations of smoker woods can be a fun way to add your own unique touch to your grilled creations.

Once the brisket is done, remove it from the smoker and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the meat more tender and juicy. Have you ever seen how they make liquid smoke? It’s pretty interesting. It really is made from smoke. When choosing the right size of wood there are usually three simple choices: chips, chunks, or logs.

Don’t over-cook your brisket. The ideal temperature for brisket is between 195-205 degrees F when probed with a thermometer in several places. If you go beyond that range, you risk drying out your meat or making it mushy. Additionally, not all woods are created equal when it comes to smoking. Some may impart more smoke (and therefore more flavor) than others. By mixing woods strategically, you can control how much smoke your food receives. Wrap up tightly both ends of the logs with a plastic, then store them in a dry place like shed or basement.We moved from bar to bar, trying new drinks, making notes, chatting to bartenders & meeting the locals.

Every barbecue enthusiast knows that choosing the right material for smoking meat is key. Certain woods burn longer than others, while others impart a delicious flavor and aroma onto your food as it smokes. Hardwoods are taken from deciduous trees, which often have broad leaves. They can burn for long hours and, as such, are the best choice for cooking. They do not have as much resin, which means that it’s safer to cook with hardwood. One of the components that make up hardwood is lignin, and this comes in handy when you are looking to flavor your meat. Hardwood has a better flavor than softwood. Hardwood burns longer and hotter, and this means that you won’t need to refill the smoker or grill often. We made it… to the quirky city of Austin, home to 20 million visitors a year.
