Briskets depend on the size.<br />You need a deep bed of hot coals (hardwood coals) they will last through the whole cook. (and not need any oxygen)<br />If you let air get into the hole the food will burn or flair up.<br />So cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516076315691432589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-14825872022419958172011-03-11T17:01:54.563-06:002011-03-11T17:01:54.563-06:00Thank you Tony!
