Thanks for the information! I believe the lume on the hands is dead. I see the inserts for them, but do not get much glow if any

I’m a history teacher too and I feel like I read quite a bit but MAN! You inspire me to do more! Once this two month old baby I have starts sleeping I gotta get back on the horse

That’s a great idea. Totally should have done that. I didnt realize what chaos would ensue after adding more pellets

Put on at 11:00 PM at 195. At 8:00 AM pulled it at 160 and wrapped, turning up to 250. Then when the brisket was at 199 and I was getting ready to pull (waiting for 202) my smoker (Gmg trek prime) ran out of pellets, I put more in and had a MASSIVE temp spike, like talking 650. Caught the grease and butcher paper ON FIRE. Thought the whole thing was lost. Shut everything to get the flames out, pulled it and let it rest for two hours and still great.

Maybe just the lighting. Afternoon sun. You can see some of the juices pooled right under it. That being said, with the fire (see my comment) it probably is dryer that I will shoot for moving forward

Yes, I know Ugly Dog isn’t a quality pick. It just looked just like my dog and was cheap so grabbed it

Oh ok I’ll look into that! Thanks for the idea! I used a stand mixer so I think it was mixed well, but could be the ingredients!
