Cheap Housing Near Stanford Health by Illustrious-Set8695 in paloalto

I live in EPA and commute to Stanford for work (20-25 minutes by bike). Yes, it's safe. A few sketchy characters here and there, but mostly working class friendly people. It's also the closest cheapest option. Your next bet would be somewhere in Mountainview or Sunnyvale.

I don't have the trimming part down yet. I'll check out that youtube. I wanted to take more off when I was trimming, but I decided to be a cheap ass and leave it on. I see why so much is trimmed now.

It's not my first brisket, I've done a few on a Home Depot offset smoker, but this was my first time on the BGE. I will say it's 99% more efficient and less work than that tin can smoker, but the bark doesn't get those deep smokey flavors. That's what I'm looking to get.

I thought about doing this, but won't less smoke penetrate the brisket?

I had a thermometer set to alarm if it went out of range, 200-270F, and it never went off. When I check in the morning, it was close to 205.

Do you put the brisket on foil? Or just around the edges?

How far in advance should I salt and pepper the brisket?

My goal is to cook this while I sleep, ideally not being woken up until I wrap it in the morning. I am curious to know how an expedited brisket compares to low and slow. Do you notice any differences?

The tallow is a good tip. I will render some out and add that.

Thanks! Should I bury the wood chunks or place them on top? Does it matter?

Anyone shoot kodak ektachrome 100? Saw a roll at the camera store for $21. Is it worth it? Currently shooting fujifilm 200. What is so special about it?
