I cut off a small piece of the brisket after it came out of the brine. I want to try the pastrami recipe & was wondering if I should do the soak or just go for it. I wonder how much salt would be removed in an 8 hour soak.
I see where you did the fresh water desalination soak. Did the final result have much salt flavor?
I am asking because I did the same recipe for the corned beef and made corned beef & cabbage with it. The cabbage recipe called for simmering the corned beef for 1/2 an hour & changing the water...
I have no problems with it after I started using the thermometer with the two thermocuples. The right hand side of the grill running a little hotter is no big deal for me.
I arrange the thermocouples down almost against the cooking grid close to what I am cooking. I figure that is where the meat is that I am cooking so the readings should be pretty close to what the meat is absorbing.
I have a RT-340 that I found the temperature to be hotter than what is shown on the screen. I bought a thermometer with thermocouples. I put one thermocouple thru each exhaust port & clamp them with clothes pins. Using the thermocouples I found my grill runs between 20 & 30degrees hotter on the...
I was just in a Rural King yesterday and they did not have any LJ pellets in house. Made a special trip just to stock up on LJ pellets. All the pellets they had was labeled "Rural King". Customer service told me they would be getting LJ pellets back in stock but their brand was just as good & a...
After using an off set wood smoker for a few years I went with the RT340 which I love. It is much easier to control the temperature. I got the wifi working but really see no reason for using it and no longer do use it. Part of the fun is walking out to monitor the grill & grabbing another...
Although I do not graph mine, I see just about exactly what you show. Roughly 20 to 40 degrees difference from right side to left side. If you come up with a baffle could you post some pictures? I am interested.
The thermocouples are not beside the "stock" one. I just run the wires thru the exhaust ports & clamp them with a clothes pin. I keep them from touching the meat or the grill. I found that the "stock" probe temperature stays pretty much on what I have the grill set on & the thermocouple...

I posted a wheel mod I did to mine about a year ago. It is titled "Traiblazer Wheel Mod" Here is the link.

Great tip for everyone stonebreaker. I have a thermometer with two thermocouples. I put a thermocouple thru the each smoke vent and set them inside each end of the grill. I attach them with clothes pins. I found my grill to be running about 15 to 20 degrees hotter on the right side. Not a big...
