There is no way your going to get the dark bark on a brisket with a pellet grill without lots of smoke!

When I cook brisket or pork butt, I run 2 smoke tubes at the same time. I want a heavy smoke flavor. Give me all the "dirty smoke". I don't like the term "dirty smoke". IMO, you only get dirty smoke from wet wood.

That grated upper/lower shelf you guys have in the GMG, something readily available? DIY? I need it!

So what's the difference in taste between this and your praised Camp Chef Smoke box? You get a lot of extra smoke on that as well and you preferred it…

Have you ever tried putting some pork lard on the ribs before wrapping like tallow on a brisket?

Guys the real estate is if you have a smoker you should be able to adjust your smoke preferences and if you don’t have a smoker a smoke tub is ideal either way you get smoke flavor.
The real question is why does smoker smoke better on the top hill then the bottom?

Smoke tubes are fine for cold smoking cheese, but otherwise they are limited in use.

Interesting. However, I am looking for a test with ELECTRIC smokers, either as a replacement or addition to chips.

Don’t use just pellets in a smoke tube, use wet wood chips and only use pellets at the top and middle of the tube. Trust me your BBQ will taste just like a stick burner. I use a strong wood for the pellet hopper and a lighter wood for the tube. It will round out the flavor.
