Started getting really into smoking meat on my offset smoker. Been watching YouTube videos all week and want to try a 14 hour brisket this Saturday. My neighbor keeps saying it's going to stink up his yard but honestly who cares. Tips on keeping temp consistent? I've got a meat thermometer and a water pan ready to go.
Respect the commitment to a 14 hour brisket man. That's dedication. Hope it turns out amazing and the family gets to be your taste testers.
That sounds incredible. As a new dad I'm still just trying to keep my kid alive and fed, but this is goals. Might steal this idea for when things settle down.
I love the enthusiasm. Fair warning though - my bedtime negotiations usually eat into any ambitious cooking plans. Hopefully your weekend is smoother than mine usually are.
How long are you planning to smoke it for? I tried doing brisket once and totally underestimated the time commitment. Ended up ordering pizza at 10pm because we were starving.
Just getting into this myself. What YouTube channels are you watching? Need some good recommendations before I take the plunge on a smoker.

Offset smoker is the way to go. I've been doing brisket for about 3 years now and the YouTube rabbit hole is real. Pro tip: invest in a good meat thermometer, it'll change your game completely.
