This is 4th cook on Lone Star Grillz Insulated Vertical Cabinet.
Set Guru for 225. Cooking with water.
When at temp at 6 pm loaded 3 racks of baby backs, two 9 lb pork butts and one 12 lb (trimmed weight) brisket. 4.5 hours later, guru shows brisket at 167 and pork butts at 167 and 164. I would have guessed that these cook times are physically impossible.
I didn't believe it, so I checked with Thermapen. ITs confirmed.
Figured that grill temp was off, so I put Maverick probe in.
Just checked, guru shows 230, and Maverick shows 239.
I started at 6pm as I was counting on 12-15 hour cook times that I saw with Vision Kamado.
If I continue to see such short cook times, really going to change start times.
Any reason the LSG would cook some much quicker than Kamado?
BTW, I wrapped brisket in pink butcher paper since I normally do at around 160-170. I did not see the dark, rich bark I normally see.
I still don't believe my lying eyes. We'll see how long it takes for brisket to probe tender.
