    Just did a 20 lb prime friday night, set it to 250 and put it on about 10 pm. It was done around 12 the next day. There is a warm setting on mine, so i just set it to warm and took it off around 4. Turned out great

      Should’ve started it earlier… but I usually do mine on my pellet smoker 225 until internal temp is 160 then wrap in the pink butcher paper and put it back on until it’s about 200-205 then wrap in a old towel and let it sit in a cooler for a couple of hours. Seasonings will be different for everyone’s taste salt and pepper is the tried and true sole people inject I’ve tried comes out fine either way. I like mine a little sweeter I use a rub that has salt pepper garlic onion and a little brown sugar.

        I hope you are using a different pellet than Traeger brand. My one and only attempt with their pellets was terrible. I was cooking two beer butt chickens and there wasnt any smoke to speak of on them. The rest of the bag went in the trash.

          I do 180 until it hits IT of 160 then wrap in butchers papers, turn the T up to 225 until it gets 202 IT. If I am in a hurry, I will turn it up to 250. But this takes me 16 hours total after I include resting in a yeti.

            Just checked and I’m almost completely out, believe it’s some off brand from the El Campo Coop. What’s a good pellet to use for a brisket? Probably run down to TSC

                  I hear B&B makes pellets. Try them if you can find them.

                    TSC sell black mountain. It’s a decent pellet.
                    I like Lumberjack hickory the best.

                      I like Lumberjack pellets also. I use the competition blend which is a mixture of hickory, maple, and cherry. Atwoods carries the Lumberjack pellets.
