Title: Have Weber, will travel
Post by: michaelmilitello on July 25, 2019, 11:40:43 AM
We’re visiting some friends in Park Rapids, MN.  They have some beautiful scenery but not a lot of places to eat.  So, as way to show our appreciation for hosting us, I brought the WSM and a 14 pound packer brisket.   I like my backyard, but, wow, what a backdrop to fire a Weber up.  I’m still amazed at what I can fit in the 18 with a little help from a coke can.

The point was heavily trimmed for more bark and burnt ends.  Makes it floppy and easy to wedge under the handles.

No way dude! You can totally do a full brisket on an 18WSM. I like the Coke can method. I've used a piece of rolled up foil in the past. It will eventually shrink up and you can remove what's underneath (bowl, foil, Coke can).
