Beef brisket, 11 hours in the pellet smoker.

[Dundee]

Dundee was the cook tonight and no animals were harmed........ went under the grill.

Cheese vegemite and salt n vinegar chips.

If you can't follow my recipe just add watties!

Dundee you seriously need to consider putting into your will that you donate your body to medical science. Someone needs to understand what effect deliberate long term nutritional neglect does to us and you present as a particularly optimal specimen. A balanced diet does not mean an equal weight of Watties Tomato Sauce to the rest of the meal.

Not for tonight. Venison front shank and front leg steak chunks ( from the spiker I jagged up Kaikoura way 3 weeks ago), 1/2 ox kidney, half a can of double brown left over from somebody, onion, squirt of jalapeno tomato sauce, lea and perrins, half a sachet of beef gravy, one oxon cube and the little bit of seasoned flour left over from browning the steak and kidneys.
Yum

Looks awesome @hotbarrels. What pellets are you using?

@Allizdog I bought 10 bags from Bunnings during the second lockdown (all they had in stock) and have been using it ever since. I haven't tried anything else yet as I still have a couple bags left. With the thermal blanket on the GMG it is very economical on the pellets.
People say that they have trouble getting enough smoke out of their pellet grills, but I have never hand an issue with these - smokey as.

[Allizdog]

Using up the last of Traeger hickory at the moment although haven't done a cook recently.
Might try a different brand next.

How have you found the Traeger Hickory, and what smoker are you using?
I was thinking of trialing the Traeger pellets next as they seem to be the best value for money at the moment and I haven't tried any fruit woods in the GMG yet. Was thinking of getting a bag of apple, cherry and hickory to try.

[veitnamcam]

Some fresh crayfish and salad with fresh tiger bread from the supey....also prawns for those who haven't sworn never to eat any seafood from China again.

[Allizdog]

@hotbarrels. I have the 3 series pitboss vertical smoker.
The Traeger hickory pellets are very good and Traeger have a good selection of different woods. Just want to try other brands that are out there. Will post a photo or two next time I do a cook which might be this wknd as its supposed to be pissing down lol.

How much for a bag, and the weight?

[hotbarrels]

How much for a bag, and the weight?

9kg, and from memory, they were $24 per bag. Bunnings don't seem to be stocking it any more, and the price of pellets has definitely gone up over all. 11 hour cook took 1/3 bag at 225F

Cheapest I can find at the moment is https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketpl...2?bof=5qNrzNyd
