I've had an electric smoker for years, but recently the probe was no longer working and it would blow the breaker ever so often.  I decided to talk the wife into me getting a kamado smoker.  I thought she'd choke at the price of the BGE, so I showed her a picture of a Vision grill at Home Depot.  I explained that the BGE was more expensive.  She said "Why don't yo just get the BGE."  I said "OK.  I'll be right back, I have to run to the store."

She was a little shocked when 2 hours later, they delivered by BGE assembled.  ;)

Anyhow, I cooked a 13.6# waygu brisket for my first cook.  I expected it to take longer, but 9 hours and 45 minutes later, it was done to 200 deg F.  I wrapped it in a towel and put it in the cooler for 3 hours and we had it for lunch instead of dinner.  Everyone went bonkers for it!!!!

This was only my third full brisket, but my first without a Texas Crutch.  It was amazing!!
