Full Fledged Farker
On Friday I started my third cook on the WSCG, this time it was a 17# full brisket. I used Oakridge Black Ops brisket rub (which was phenomenally good).
First, it couldn't be easier to set up the DigiQ, and I love how you can just leave the adapter hooked up with the kill plug in and use it with out the DigiQ. The DidgiQ worked well, but it overshot the set temperature (225f) by about 40 f to begin with and it took me ratcheting back on the top damper to bring it down to 225f. It took about 20 min to get back to the set temp.
After it cooked for 15 hours this is how it looked
Because I did the cook overnight, I was comforted to know I had the DidgiQ, but in all honesty, except for overnight cooks, I don't think I will use my DidgiQ on this cooker. You see, I found it almost easier to dial in a set temperature and maintain that temp without the ATC.
Oh, and that 15 hour cook, might have consumed 1/3 a bag of kingsford coal. This is a very efficient cooker!
Here is the finished product.
